Management information systems (MIS) are integrated, computer-based systems that provide information to support organizational operations, management, and decision-making functions. MIS draw from database systems to support operational, mid-level, and executive roles within an organization. Specifically, MIS provide operational data for planning and control, short-term planning and target setting for business functions, and strategic planning and goal setting. Ultimately, MIS ensure the right information is available to the right people at the right time and place to support effective decision making across all levels of an organization.
