Template:No significant coverage }} A strategic information system (SIS) is a computer used by organizations to analyze market and competitor information in support of business planning.[1] It contributes to corporate strategy by linking organizational requirements with information technology.[2] This linkage is intended to assist organizations in responding to ongoing changes in the business environment, including competitive conditions.[1]
In addition, SIS may support decision-making by providing data analytics, trends, and metrics.[3] These capabilities can be used by managers to assess opportunities, evaluate risks, and examine operational efficiency.[3] By integrating internal organizational processes with external market information, a strategic information system supports both operational decision-making and longer-term planning.[2]
Importance
