There are a number of research options, but primary research would be the most effective one. Carrying out interviews will the stakeholders and managers will be an effective way of acquiring first hand information regarding their opinion of the software. Again, the personnel will be required to fill out questionnaires and present their ideas regarding the issue. I will also refer to the government ICT website ict.govt.nz and get relevant information regarding the government boundaries placed in software development. Another important source of information would be the university library database.
