Abstract
The management of an enterprise is divided into two subsystems, the managing and the operating subsystems. The operating sub-system is composed of organizational resources, productive personnel, and their activities, all aimed at the achievement of the final organizational goals (production, provision of social services, scientific and technological innovation, creation of national income, etc.), whilst at the same time ensuring optimal utilization of all resources involved. On the other hand, the managing subsystem is the part of the enterprise that undertakes the tasks of management proper, of using information, of management and administrative personnel, and of special material and financial resources; it also performs all the information activities relating to the operating subsystem.
