As the manager of the branch, I would consider the following specific components of an Information System (IS) to identify and address the connectivity issue:

  1. Hardware: I would assess the hardware components of the computers being used by the tellers and staff members. This includes checking if the computers have the necessary network adapters, cables, and other hardware required for connecting to the central bank system.

  2. Software: I would examine the software being used on the computers. This includes the operating system and any specific software applications required for connecting to the central bank system. I would ensure that the software is up to date and compatible with the central bank system.

  3. Network: I would investigate the network infrastructure within the branch. This includes checking the local area network (LAN) setup, routers, switches, and any other networking equipment. I would ensure that the network is properly configured and functioning correctly.

  4. Connectivity: I would verify the connectivity options available to the branch. This includes checking if the branch has a stable internet connection, whether it is wired or wireless, and if there are any issues with the connection itself. I would also check if the branch has the necessary access credentials to connect to the central bank system.

  5. Security: I would consider the security measures in place to protect the branch’s network and systems. This includes checking if there are any firewalls, antivirus software, or other security protocols that could be blocking the connection to the central bank system. I would ensure that the security measures are properly configured and not causing any connectivity issues.

  6. IT Support: I would involve the IT support team to investigate the issue further. They can provide technical expertise and troubleshoot any potential problems with the IS components. They can also liaise with the central bank’s IT department to identify any specific requirements or issues on their end.

By considering these specific components of an Information System, I would be able to identify the root cause of the connectivity problem and work towards finding a legitimate and sustainable solution.
