* In canteen area, delayed services in having meals could cause bad moods, inorder to minimize it they should have that computerized system in punching every snacks or meal they bought. it helps in maintaining proper order and it won't cause the canteen cashier to be in a hurry. you only have to swipe as to deduct every food you get.

Question # 3

Justify or contradict these trends by citing examples.
1) Mis users are more knowledgeable. I consider my self as a best example because as of now I got of informations about MIS that i could use in applying in different aspects.
2) More power is available to the users.you have the power to decide especially in managerial decision making. Example: For the managers, it helps in conceptualizing in making decisions that nobody could influence them in pursuing their management capacity.
3) Resistance to the implementation of emerging MIS subsiding. Example:there are bank institutions who have a subsidize/parent company, so when they are implementing new rules and regulation it can easily send it to them for them to be aware or be inform. 4) Connectitivity. They can easily furnished information such as call center are the best example.
5) Mis is becoming one of the primary of increasing productivity. Example: The company particular in the production area, the use of computerized and hi-tech equipment for faster and quality output.
6) Companies are using mis as a competitive strategy. As of now, MIS is being use mostly by companies like Matsuhita company, a big company that need MIS especially in sales report making.They pass their sales report to their sister company if they have so that they could gather more information needed by the company in managing the work and their operation as well as helping in solving their problems.
8) The end user is encoming the focus of MIS activity. Once you now have the knowledge of MIS in how to use it properly, it makes as a hobby to your life that you can use anytime. Example those IT teacher that make MIS as a hobby they can use it as a extra income by teaching those who want to have an extra information about the subject.

Question#.2

How can the manager and employees make use of information as a strategic/competitive advantage over other competitors?

Information about the present or future can provide search marketers with a competitive advantage. This is true not just for immediate competitive intelligence and the incremental power that a real-time campaign or bidding system can provide by analyzing data as it happens, but also for the understanding of trends that indicate where the search engines are going, which can help you plan at a macro level.Knowledge is the ultimate competitive advantage only if understood from an action-oriented perspective. All the information technologies and data cannot assure competitive advantage in the long-term, nor do decisions that are made - if made at all - drawing upon insights hidden in information and data. Only translating information and decisions into actionable value propositions can assure competitive advantage. Hence, in this perspective, knowledge lies in action: in effective utilization of data and information resources for actionable decisions and, most importantly, in execution. As elaborated earlier, business managers need to define and continuously refine their business value propositions to ensure that they are not marginalized by radical discontinuous change. Therefore, this knowledge management strategy and its execution with the aid of information, communication and collaboration technologies can provide a greater chance at being 'great' than is otherwise possible.

My Comment..

I could say that MIS (Management Information System) is very important because its a way of having information that could help us in Decision-Making..Simply without it how could anyone operate to solve its different problem without that information that can be benefited enough to make alternative solution. that's how MIS work in our daily activities that go through in a way that be a helping tool for us ..
