Mahir Pradana; The search for as much information as possible is needed to achieve maximum results in a management process. Information is also needed as a source of evaluation of the development of an organization, institutions, companies, and departments. Thus, the management process is inseparable from the use of information systems, which is a set of components that are interconnected, collect, process the store, and distribute information to support decision-making and control in an organization. This article examines the theories of management information system to be used as a reference in the domain of management information systems.Keywords: Management Information Systems, Use Of Information Systems, The Value Of Information Technology.

Support Decision Making

An information system translates data into information to support business decision making. Data, raw unorganized facts, are gathered relative to a business event. The resulting information, which has meaning in the hands of a user, must be complete and accurate in order to support timely decision making. The acquisition of an information system by a small business will be a relatively costly endeavour. The small business manager will tend to rely upon an internal individual or external organization for advice when acquiring an information system. Further, the information system will be employed to improve the efficiency of daily operations of a small business. This chapter describes information systems. In general, an information system turns data into information to support decision making. The information must be timely, complete, and accurate relative to the decisions which must be made.

This chapter focuses on the potential contributions that Data Mining (DM) could make within the Human Resource (HR) function in organizations. We first provide a basic introduction to DM techniques and processes and a survey of the literature on the steps involved in successfully mining this information. We also discuss the importance of data warehousing and datamart considerations. An examination of the contrast between DM and more routine statistical studies is given, and the value of HR information to support a firm’s competitive position and organizational decision-making is considered. Examples of potential applications are outlined in terms of data that is ordinarily captured in HR information systems.

Abstract Background Some previous studies have reported that hospital medical assistance in Angola lacks efficiency. There is no production of information on health financing or even health spending that could help monitor equity. Hospital information systems (HIS) could be relevant tools to inform hospital managers, supporting better management decisions in healthcare and, consequently, increasing efficiency. Nonetheless, the effective use of these systems by hospital managers to support decision-making in Angola is unknown. This study aimed to analyze the use of HIS as a tool to support decision-making by hospital managers in Huila, Angola. Methods This is a descriptive–cross-sectional study that was inducted between July and September 2017 in seven hospitals in Huila Province, Angola, specifically in Lubango and Matala cities. Each hospital board included four to six managers (e.g., general, clinical, administrative, nursing, diagnostic and therapeutic, and teaching and training managers). Thirty-six members of the hospital boards filled on a self-questionnaire that consisted of twenty questions based on the following issues: characterization of the interviewee's profile; availability of information in the institution; quality and usefulness of the available operational information and satisfaction with the existing HIS. Perform data analysis with IBM SPSS Statistics, version 21.0 Results At least ⅔ of the participants reported being unsatisfied or relatively satisfied with each of the HIS-specific features that were assessed. More than 50%have rarely or never used the health information system to support decision-making, and 47.2% have never noted audits performed in their institution. Only 25% of the participants considered that the HIS stored information was satisfactory to calculate the rate of service indicators. Conclusion Our study showed that most hospital managers don’t use hospital information systems as tools to support management-related decision-making in Angola. Improving the Hospital information systems, ability to compute adequate indicators, and providing training on HIS usage to hospital managers could be targets of future interventions to support better management-related decision-making in Angolan healthcare.

Support Decision Making

The challenge of transforming data and information in enterprise information systems into knowledge that can be rolled up and presented to management as key performance indicators is business-critical. The implementation of a business intelligence layer on top of the transaction processing systems and management information systems is viewed as an opportunity to move up a level to promote knowledge-based decision-making and strategic planning. This chapter attempts to examine the issues and challenges associated with the initiative by Abu Dhabi Finance to implement business intelligence solutions that extract information from the enterprise information systems, present them as KPIs for senior management, and produce knowledge that can be used to support decision-making and strategic planning.
