3 Data vs. Information vs. Knowledge Accumulate Knowledge Knowledge Data Format, Filter, Summarize Information Interpret, Design, Act Results 7 Characteristics of Valuable Information Accurate information is error free. Complete information contains all of the important facts. Relevant information is important to the decision maker. Timely information is available when needed. Verifiable information can be checked to make sure it is correct. Accessible information can be obtained by the users who need it. Secure information is safe from unauthorized users. 8 thus... Usefulness of information depends on quality and accessibility BUT. Usefulness also depends on purpose and context Information comes in different forms - not all of which can be quantified: hard vs. soft data Ownership is difficult to maintain More is not always better 9 3
4 Definitions The business environment includes the firm itself and everything else that affects its success, such as competitors; suppliers; customers; regulatory agencies; and demographic, social, and economic conditions. A firm (or government organization) consists of a large number of interdependent business processes that work together to generate products or services in a business environment. A business process is a related group of steps or activities that use people, information, and other resources to create value for internal or external customers of a firm. 10 What is an Information System? An information system is the set of interrelated components that collect, process, store and distribute information used by/support one or more business process. Input: The collection of raw data. Processing: The manipulation of data into information. Output: Distributing valuable information. Includes both technology and people Information technology is the hardware, telecommunications and software that make information systems possible. 11 Functions of Information Systems Environment Organization Information System INPUT Processing Classify Arrange Calculate OUTPUT Feedback 12 4
