Inhaltsangabe

The successful development and operation of an EIS must address a myriad of potential organizational and technical challenges and creates responsibilities for management and developers. Management must define objectives for the system, allocate necessary resources, put the development staff in place, fight political resistance, and be visible users of the system. Developers must determine information requirements for the system, select appropriate hardware and software resources, gain access to necessary data, design screens, and oversee the evolution of the system.
Executive Information Systems provides valuable information and materials on these and other key EIS issues. This important work was gathered from information that was previously scattered in academic journals, trade publications, conference proceedings, and university working paper series. This book contains important concepts, understanding, insights, and real-life experiences about how to successfully develop an EIS.
Written for anyone who wants to learn about EIS, this book is divided into four parts: The Emergence of EIS, The Nature of Executive Work, Developing an EIS, and The Impact of EIS. Interspersed throughout the book are detailed descriptions of EIS in a variety of organizations. For quick, easy access, these descriptions are marked in the Table of Contents as "EIS in Action" and are intended to make EIS more real and less abstract.
Executive Information Systems provides a wealth of practical, hard-won information and advice that has never been published together in one comprehensive volume.
