Barriers
Characteristic
Barrier
Communication Information can be overloaded or incorrect.Technology can create communication breakdown.
Depersonalization
Technology replaces peopleA technology’s outcome can replace a person.
Security Too much security impedes technologyToo little security puts others at risk
Operation Cost of operating and maintenanceCost of paying
Storage Can be expensive Can be lostCan be damaged

Efficiency Time managementFacilitates communication
Accuracy / Precision Products, outcomes, results are more precise
Operations Technology creates jobs
Security Securing information, things, and people
Storage Storing information is cheap, accessible, and portable.Machines are shrinking.
