produce a variety of sorts and amounts of information.
What is the objective of system analysis? Why is it important? - ANSWER The

Systems analysis determines "what" the new system should perform. It is about
exploration and comprehension. System design is the process of determining
"how" a new system should be developed. It is about structure and architecture.
