Abstract
This thesis endeavours to explore the possibility of developing a system for a small Māori organisation incorporating their Kaupapa Māori needs. A project was undertaken to develop a system for "Ohomairangi", an Early Intervention Service to assist with sustainable management of data and the production of reports. For this project, a Kaupapa Māori approach to development was chosen to enhance cultural validity, to acknowledge the tikanga and kaupapa of Ohomairangi, create a stronger sense of shared understanding and trust, and to enable a more appropriate and user-friendly system to be developed. This project was commissioned by, financially supported by, and will be utilised within Ohomairangi Trust Early Intervention Service (See Appendix B).
