...MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS MINI PROJECT SUBMITTED BY D.Muthamizh MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS Management information systems (MIS) is the study of people, technology, organizations, and the relationships among them. This definition, given by Mays Business School, relates specifically to MIS as a course of study. In other words, MIS is commonly used in business schools to refer to the study of how individuals, groups, and organizations evaluate, design, implement, manage, and utilize systems to generate information to improve efficiency and effectiveness of decision making, including systems termed decision support systems, expert systems, and executive information systems. Many business schools (or colleges of business administration within universities) have an MIS department, alongside departments of accounting, finance, management, marketing, and may award degrees (at undergraduate, master, and doctoral levels) in MIS. A good definition of MIS in practice has been given in a journal article: "Establishing and Managing Management Information Systems in Developing Countries" by Dr. Chris Prince Udochukwu Njoku. Dr. Njoku gave the comprehensive definition after a critical assessment of many definitions, some of which he cited, and described them as inadequate. MIS professionals help organizations--big, medium and small--realize maximum benefit from investments in personnel, equipment, and business processes. MIS is people-oriented, with an emphasis on service. Although...

...Introduction Management Information System (MIS) enables small business organization to focus on solving business problems and creating new opportunity with technology. In his article titled “The impact of Management Information System effectiveness on task productivity”, Trivellas explains that “management information system (MIS) is the basic tool to support planning and controlling functions of the managers in small business organization” (2013). He states that MIS touches almost all areas of business, such as manufacturing, accounting & finance, human resource and marketing. Trivellas conducted a survey to investigate the impact of MIS in small business sector such as banking. According to his survey, MIS provides necessary information for managers so that they can able to monitor the organization’s activities and make important decisions accordingly. On the other hand, many other authors state that while MIS provides several benefits to the organization, Trivellas fails to mention the issues and the challenges associated with implementing the MIS technology. The authors find that installing MIS can be expensive for small business organization. The organization should create a separate budget to ensure that the system is current. Trivellas ignore the fact that maintenance of the system is another issue that comes along with installing MIS. Companies should hire someone to keep the system operating effectively. This increases labor cost. Moreover, MIS sometimes...

All businesses share one common asset, regardless of the type of business. It does not matter if they manufacture goods or provide services. It is a vital part of any business entity, whether a sole proprietorship or a multinational corporation. That common asset is information. Information enables us to determine the need to create new products and services. Information tells us to move into new markets or to withdraw from other markets. Without information, the goods do not get made, the orders are not placed, the materials are not procured, the shipments are not delivered, the customers are not billed, and the business cannot survive. But information has far lesser impact when presented as raw data. In order to maximize the value of information, it must be captured, analyzed, quantified, compiled, manipulated, made accessible, and shared. In order to accomplish those tasks, an information system (IS) must be designed, developed, administered, and maintained. An information system is a computer system that provides management and other personnel within an organization with up-to-date information...

Bad press, for good reasons? In some quarters, the term ‘consultant’ has become a dirty word — and it is, perhaps, the business or marketing consultant that has received the worst press of all in recent years. There are valid reasons for this, not least the fact that consultants appear when we are struggling to solve a problem for ourselves. Often parachuted in by senior management, employees may perceive the consultant’s arrival as a vote of organisational no confidence in their abilities. Few people would think twice about using a specialist consultant for a medical problem, but this attitude doesn’t always transition into the workplace. Perhaps because businesses don’t need someone coming in and telling them what they already know. In many cases it feels like consultants have come in, stolen your watch, and then told you the time! We can all recount stories of a critical business issue being posed to a team of highly paid consultants who come in, disrupt the workplace for a few weeks, disappear for a couple of months and then return to tell you something you already...

...Theoretical Background Customer satisfaction is a marketing term that measures how products or services supplied by a company meet or surpass a customer's expectation. Customer satisfaction is important because it provides marketers and business owners with a foundation that they can use to manage and improve their businesses. The concept of customer satisfaction has drawn the attention of practitioners and academics from last several years based on the fact that customers are the primary source of profit for most of the firms operating in the market (Tam, 2004). According to Churchill and Surprenant (1982), “customer satisfaction is an outcome of purchase and use resulting from the buyers' comparison of the rewards and costs of the purchase in relation to the anticipated consequences”. It is also defined in terms of an emotional state that usually arises in response of evaluating a particular service (Westbrook, 1981). The former concept highlights the fact that satisfaction is determined through a cognitive procedure by comparing what customers give up to get a service( cost) and what they receive in response ( reward), however the later concept takes satisfaction as an emotional feeling that results during the process of evaluation (Tam, 2004). Consistent with this concept, we can say that “customer satisfaction is defined as an emotional response, which results from a cognitive process of evaluating the service received against the costs of obtaining the service” (Woodruff...

...requirements of management”, is in the CIO’s list “Society is bombarded with data”( Scams & Fraud, 2012). Often so much information is received and as a result we feel overloaded! There's e-mail, web processing, instant messaging, voice mails, and a myriad of other means of communication that are constantly streamed to us daily. Dealing with the organization and management of information can be frustrating and make us want to pull our hair out, but nonetheless, it must be given serious attention. Businesses are driven by data, and the information derived from data is an extremely valuable asset in today's environment and most organizations are dependent on its availability and accuracy. The electronic age has brought new challenges in managing information that previously was non-existent prior to computers and the Internet. While technology has generated higher efficiency, access, and integrity with the newer ways to organize and manage information, it can be overwhelming.

...Functions of Management Emerson McGhee MGT/330 Version 7 07/09/12 Jonathan Graff, MBA Functions of Management Before the four functions of management can be defined and talked about we must first begin by discussing management. What is and what is its function? Management is a set of functions and tasks performed by individuals and groups for the purpose of enabling an organization to achieve its objectives. From one perspective, management consists of planning, organizing, staffing, directing, and controlling (Koontz and O’Donnell 1982). The goal of any manager or management team must be the attainment of specific goals that have been previously agreed upon. Without clear goals which are reasonable and attainable there can be no vision, which must be transmitted to the staff that is to carry out the wishes of management. The four functions of management are planning, organizing, leading, and controlling. I work as a substance abuse counselor in a non-profit men’s residential treatment facility. I will show and explain how each of the four functions operates in the facility. Planning is basically defined as the specifying of goals to be achieved, and deciding in advance of the best methods of achieving those goals. In the past planning would normally operate from the top down, now it must operate in a lineal horizontal manner so that all management and staff can contribute ideas that may benefit the organization. In my organization planning comes down from the top...
