Book Description

The book deals with the fundamental concepts of Management Information Systems (MIS) and the importance of timely, relevant, and accurate information in managerial activities. MIS brings together people, procedures, data, technology, and organizational processes to support management functions and decision-making.

A typical MIS framework distinguishes between data and information, considers the information requirements of different levels of management, and examines how information systems support operational, tactical, and strategic activities. University-level MIS curricula similarly emphasize the definition, purpose, objectives, organizational role, and management levels of MIS.
