Abstract

Managers have difficult and demanding jobs and they require accurate, up-to-date, timely and relevant information if they are to work effectively and take the right decisions.

But, to achieve this, managers must be able to specify their information requirements clearly, so that an information system can be created that directly addresses these needs.
