 The role of information systems in business organizations are as follows :

1. Technology modifies skill requirements for individuals and changes jobs by operating
them on a regular basis. Companies must adapt business processes rather than change
systems.
2. The application of information systems regulates the relationship between individuals
and divisions with the organization and affects the relationships of other organizations
in a supply chain such as suppliers and customers. In addition, information systems
can bring closer relationships with suppliers, customers, clients, and the general
public.
3. Making Technology can be seen as a major change in organizational structure. In
other words, it can help change in the organization.
4. Information systems have a great impact on the organization, and can also work as an
initiator, facilitator, or can be a new management tool.
5. In a modern information system can reduce communication costs and internal
coordination costs.
6. Can improve the quality and speed of information processing and management
decision making, planning and supervision.
7. Can improve data quality and flexibility.
8. Improve administration, communication, and coordination.
9. Make better management of organizational knowledge.
10. Can combine business processes, for example for sales, purchasing, production, etc.
Which is where the merger is through a shared system.
11. Get better support in business processes
12. Can increase the level of supervision in the work, and allow greater control of work
by the managerial group.
13. Can reduce social interaction between workers
 The functions of information systems in business organizations are as follows :
1. Make it easier for the management department to plan, supervise, and direct work for
all the departments it coordinates.
2. Improving the effectiveness and efficiency of data processing, because the existing
data of a management information system is data that has been presented accurately
and in real time (on time).
3. Minimize costs and increase the productivity of an organization.
4. Facilities for improving human resources, because in its implementation a systematic
and coordinated technology-based work unit is needed.

The function of information systems in business organizations is no longer just as in the

statement above. However, now information systems can function to help managerial end
users build weapons that use information systems technology to face the challenges of
intense competition. The effective use of strategic information systems presents
managerial end users with major managerial challenges.

 Conclusion :

Management information system is a set of tools that play an important role for business
organizations to achieve the expected targets. With the application of an information
system, a management basically involves two components, namely the user and the
system. Through the collaboration of these two components, managers will be greatly
assisted in knowing the extent of the management and development of an organization or
company. In addition, these two components can enable an organization or company to
increase competitiveness in the global environment. Managerial positions can also carry
out in-depth analysis of the needs of the organization or company. Which is where the
analysis can later become the basis for effective and efficient decision making by
managers in terms of planning, directing, and monitoring which can also help the
organization or company to achieve the expected target.
