Management Information System
Management Information System is an organized
assembly of resources and procedures required to
collect, process, and distribute data for use in
decision making.
MIS is an information system that integrates data
from all the departments it serves and provides

Decision Support Systems
DSS refers to an interactive computerized system that gathers
and presents data from a wide range of sources, typically for
business purposes. DSS applications are systems and
subsystems that help people make decisions based on data
that is culled from a wide range of sources.
A decision support system (DSS) is a computer program
application that analyzes business data and presents it so that
users can make business decisions more easily. It is an
"informational application" (to distinguish it from an "operational
application" that collects the data in the course of normal
business operation).

DSS Vs MIS
DSS MIS
Offers integrated tools, data,
models and language users
Offers structured information to
end users
System analysis dimension
focuses on identifying the tools
required for decision process
Focus is on identifying
information requirements
It is an iterative process by
design
The system is based on
“Frozen” requirements

13. Banking Technology November 2005M.V.Sivakumaran
Decision Support Systems
There are two kinds of DSS- Personal DSS and Group DSS
Personal DSS Group DSS
Individual Knowledge worker
uses in daily work
Promote brainstorming and
group decision making
Raw data entered into a
program either by user or
drawn from other sources
Located in conference room or
on networked computers
Tax preparation software is an
example
Example-weigh votes to
overcome impasses

Decision Support Systems…
Four core capabilities of DSS
Representations- Conceptualise information required for
decision-making in the form of graphs, charts, reports, symbols
etc
Operations- Manipulate data logically and/or mathematically
Memory aids- Offer capabilities to update and refresh
memory by way of databases, data views, libraries, links etc
Control aids- Allow user to control functions and activities of
DSS

that provides management with real-time updates on

geographical, easy-to-read format.
Gives quick access to key business measures, allowing
you to monitor your operations and increase the speed
and accuracy of decision-making process.
