Strategic information system
Template:No significant coverage A strategic information system[1] (SIS) is a computer-based system used by organizations to analyse market and competitor information supporting business planning. It is designed to contribute to corporate strategy by aligning organizational objectives with information technology. This alignment is intended to enable organizations to respond effectively to changes in the business environment, particularly shifts in competitive conditions.
Importance
