I. The five main goals of MIS are as follows:


a) Data Capturing
Data is collected by MIS from a variety of organizational internal and external sources. Data might be captured manually or via
computer terminals.
b) Data Processing
To create the necessary information, the recorded data is processed. Data processing includes tasks including calculating, sorting,
categorising, and summarising.
c) Storage
MIS retains the raw or processed data for use in the future. Any information that is not immediately needed is preserved as a
record for the organisation to use at a later time.
d) Retrieval
MIS pulls data from its databases as and when different users need it.
e) Dissemination
When various users require data, MIS retrieves it from its archives. The following are
MIS's characteristics:
a) Systematic Method
The information system adopts a systematic methodology. The system's approach denotes a comprehensive approach to the
investigation of the system and its performance in the context of the goal for which it was created.
b) Management Oriented
The MIS must be designed using a top-down manner. According to the top-down methodology, system development should begin with the
identification of management requirements and overarching corporate goals.
c) Need-Based
MIS should be designed and developed in accordance with the information requirements of managers at various levels, including those
of strategic planning, management control, and operational control. In other words, MIS should be tailored to the unique
requirements of managers at various levels of a business.
d) Based on Exceptions
The exception-based reporting principle, which states that an abnormal circumstance, i.e., the maximum; minimum or predicted values
fluctuate beyond tolerance boundaries, should guide the development of MIS. In such cases, the decision-maker should receive the
necessary level of exception reporting.
e) Future-focused
In addition to exception-based reporting, MIS needs to consider the future. In other words, MIS shouldn't just provide information from
the past or the recent past; rather, it should provide information based on projections from which actions may be taken.

II.The Needs for a Successful MIS:


a) Qualified System and Management Staff
A successful MIS must be handled by qualified officers as a precondition.
a) Qualified System and Management Staff
These officers need to grasp each other's roles and responsibilities as well as their other officers' perspectives thoroughly.

Page 2 of
b) A futuristic Viewpoint

A successful MIS should be able to accommodate its leaders' future needs as well. The MIS can be regularly updated and
monitored to attain this capacity.
a)The backing of Top Management
A management information system needs the full backing of top management to be successful.
b) Standard Database
Several information subsystems in an organization use this integrated collection of data and information. A common database can
be described as a super file that merges and consolidates data records that were previously kept in a different data file. Such a
database can be set up either as an integrated collection of many data files or as an integrated collection of data records
into a single super file.
c) Management and Upkeep of MIS
Control of the MIS refers to the system's ability to function as intended.
Users occasionally create their own processes or shortcuts for using the system, which decreases its efficacy.

III.Both management information systems (MIS) and information systems (IS) are components of the IT infrastructure needed to run
a business. Although there are some variations between IS and MIS, both support a company's or corporation's IT infrastructure.
Information Systems (IS)
It is a collection of data, computing devices, software, and management techniques needed to support a business's "internal" daily
operations. Because each organization has different operational needs, each has a different IS.
Management Information System (MIS)
MIS is frequently regarded as a part of IS. This subgroup is especially pertinent when protecting and distributing the information
needed to support operational, strategic, and proactive choices made by corporate managers. This data frequently originates from
"external" sources, like as data from suppliers or real-time sales information from retail establishments, or sources that are not part of the
organisation.

IV.Information systems can support you in making sound judgments by giving you accurate and current information and carrying out
analytical tasks. Make sure the information system you select has the capabilities you require and can work with the information
formats utilised by your business. In order to provide you with assistance for your decisions, suitable management information
systems can organise the essential data from your company's operations and records into reports.

The Use of Projections to Aid Decision-Making

Any choices you make affect the anticipated company results and can need adjusting your business plan and long-term objectives. The
ability to perform trend analysis is either built into management information systems or is available through the provision of
information. Every basic operating result is
projected in typical company strategy.
You may demonstrate these results in the current situation and how they will alter once you have put your decisions into practice
using a trend analysis. The new ideals serve as the cornerstone of your future strategic approach.
Evaluation and Implementation

You must monitor company results to make sure things proceed as expected, even while you make decisions with defined goals in
mind and have the evidence from management information systems and trend analysis to back your expectations. The data provided by
management information systems allows
you to assess if your actions have had the desired impact or whether you need to make adjustments in
order to achieve your objectives. You can utilize management information systems to assess the issue and decide whether to take
additional measures if some results are not as expected.

V. a) Management Information System

The study of people, technology, organisations, and their relationships is known as management information systems (MIS). MIS
specialists assist businesses in getting the most out of their investments in people, technology, and operational procedures. MIS is a
people-focused industry with a focus on providing services using technology. A degree in MIS might be right for you if you're
interested in technology and want to utilise it to make people's lives better.
For the management of data, MIS specialists develop information systems (i.e., storing, searching, and analysing data). To suit the
demands of managers, employees, and clients, they also handle a variety of information systems. MIS experts are able to play a
significant role in areas like information security, integration, and exchange by cooperating with other members of their work group as
well as with their customers and clients. You may improve the efficacy and efficiency of your firm by learning how to
creatively design, implement, and use business information systems as a MIS major.

b) Organization Structure

The way that work moves through an organisation is determined by its organisational structure. It enables teams to manage tasks
within the confines of their respective responsibilities. Employees are typically grouped by area, product line, or function (such as
finance or operations) under traditional
organisational structures, which have a more formalised feel. Less conventional structures have a looser
weave, are more adaptable, and can react swiftly to shifting business situations.

Since the 1800s, organisational structures have changed. People were organised during the Industrial Revolution to produce parts for
the product that was moving down the assembly line. According to Frederick Taylor's scientific management approach, workers only
completed one task in the most effective way possible. General Motors established a ground-breaking organisational structure in the
20th century in which each significant division produced its own automobiles.

Today's organisational structures are evolving quickly, moving from traditional structures to flexible ones like virtual organisations. Future
organisations may incorporate a fluid, free-forming organisation, member ownership, and an entrepreneurial mentality among all members
as businesses continue to change and expand their global presence.

a) Outsourcing is a business strategy where a corporation employs a third party to carry out operations, handle activities, or offer
services on their behalf. The outside business, often referred to as the service provider or third-party provider, makes arrangements for
its own personnel or technological resources to carry out the duties or offer the services either on-site at the premises of the hiring
business or at other places. A business practise known as outsourcing entails hiring a third party to carry out duties, manage
operations, or offer services on the company's behalf. The outside business, often referred to as the service provider or third-party
provider, makes arrangements for its own personnel or technological

infrastructure to carry out the duties or offer the services either on-site at the premises of the hiring business or at external
locations.
• Businesses hire resources from outside the company to handle certain information technology

functions, outsourcing their information systems in the process. It is the process of assigning specific business activities for the corporation
to a local or foreign third-party person or organisation.
• The reason why businesses typically outsource data storage is that hiring a third party is less expensive than purchasing
and maintaining their own data storage equipment and facilities.
• Anywhere in the world with reduced production costs can be the company that is chosen as the outsourcing partner.

b) The structure, culture, and operational procedures of an organisation are intricately entwined with its information systems. When new
systems are introduced, there is frequently a lot of resistance because they upset long-standing work and power dynamics. Strategic
system implementation frequently necessitates significant organisational change. These transitions are frequently time-consuming,
uncomfortable, and difficult to complete. Additionally, not all strategic plans are successful. They can require significant organisational
changes, which makes them expensive and challenging to construct. Many strategic information systems are easy for other companies to
copy, so the strategic advantage is not always durable. Information systems, organisational performance, and decision-making have a
complex interaction that needs to be carefully handled. Sometimes, rather than only the purported strategic advantage of the system
itself, the advantages can be discovered in the manner a management team bases its judgments on the data provided by IS. The
processing or output of a strategic information system is not clearly defined. It most likely doesn't exist right now because it is
organically structured around a desired future state for the organisation and an informed guess as to the steps necessary to get there. In
many businesses, not just the strategy but also the individuals who develop the plan undergo change. Modern approaches to strategic
information systems typically embrace this dynamic character rather than combat it. Solutions for business intelligence and analytics are
structured around data with the aim of being able to handle massive shifts in the questions being asked of the data.

c) The following are a few of the crucial MIS roles:

• The MIS fulfils a range of demands via a number of systems, including query, analysis, modelling, and decision
support systems.

• The MIS assists with transaction processing, management control, operational control, and strategic planning. The
MIS assists the administrative staff in processing transactions and provides information on transaction-related data,
the status of a specific record, and references to various documents.

• The MIS assists the junior management staff in making decisions at the operational level to regulate an out-of-
control situation by providing operational data for planning, scheduling, and control.

• The MIS aids middle management in short-term planning, setting objectives, and overseeing
operational activities. It is backed up by the application of planning and control as management
techniques.

• The highest level management benefits from the MIS in goal setting, strategic planning, and the
evolution of corporate plans and their execution.

• The MIS assists in the creation of information, communication, problem-solving, and decision-making
processes. Therefore, the MIS is crucial to the management, operation, and administration of an
organisation.

A competent manager makes everything clear. They establish precise objectives that are understandable to IT,
programmers, and people in all roles. In order to better understand their potentially risky assumptions and to
adjust their goals and requests in light of new information, competent managers ask input from their team members'
expertise and listen attentively to what they have to say. And in making choices, a non-technical manager would
play that position.
