Let (R,
) be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We investigate conditions for a non-finitely generated R-module M to have a system of parameters. We prove that if

then any system of parameters for R/AnR (M) is a system of parameters for M. As an application we characterize by means of systems of parameters those balanced big Cohen–Macaulay R-modules M for which SuppR (M) = suppR (M).
