THE REAL COSTS AND BENEFITS OF CASE

Abstract More organizations are turning to computer-aided software engineering (CASE) technology to overcome systems development backlogs, improve systems quality, and limit systems maintenance efforts. There is, however, an increasing concern among many managers over the exact cost and the sometimes elusive benefits of establishing and operating what may add up to be a multimillion dollar technology investment. IS managers should realize though that the financial savings of CASE aren't necessarily measured in dollars and cents.
