The Computer System Risk Management and Validation Life Cycle is the first technical manual to integrate computer system validation, risk management, and system implementation into a single, easy-to-use process. The RiskVal life cycle is applicable to all industries where computer systems pose a substantial risk to business continuity, efficiency, and the integrity of high-value data. Easily understood by system users and IT professionals, this book explains basic concepts and translates them into how-to deliverables to simplify the tough decisions associated with a wide range of systems and their potential risks of failure. A case study follows the text and illustrates how one company used the RiskVal life cycle to implement and validate a system that meets regulatory standards.
Twelve chapters include discussions on:
* Defining your computer system requirements
* Choosing between vendors to select the best system
* Ensuring that a purchased system meets regulatory requirements
* Identifying and designing solutions to system problems
* Using risk management tools to eliminate defects, improve implementation quality, and minimize failures of major technological investments
* Qualifying the system for use in a production environment
* Using the system in a way that preserves its viability
* Retiring the system
