Abstract: | Management Information Systems: Managing the Digital Firm, Ninth Edition, is based on the premise that information systems knowledge is essential for creating successful, competitive firms, managing global corporations, adding business value, and providing useful products and services to customers. One of the central questions facing managers today is how to optimize their firms‘ returns their information systems investments. In the United States alone, capital expenditures for computing and telecommunications equipment and services will amount to an estimated for computing and telecommunication $1.8 trillion in 2005. Accordingly, one central focus of this book is to help managers make better decisions about technology and to achieve the maximum value from their information technology investments. We do this in part by describing how contemporary real—world managers and firms make these decisions, and in part by providing you with analytic concepts that you will find useful in making decisions in the future. This book provides an introduction to management information systems (MIS) that undergraduate and MBA students will find vital to their professional success regardless of their major area or concentration. |
