After reading the text and considering your own organization (or another one you are very familiar with), describe the needs of the accounting department as to data gathering/reporting/controlling functions of accounting.

Then, consider whether the existing IT application(s) are fulfilling that need for the organization. Maybe even describe the application software in more detail.
