Managerial Decision Making and
Information Systems

• Management is a process by which organizational


goals are achieved through the use of resources

• Resources: Inputs
• Goal Attainment: Output
• Measuring Success:
Productivity = Outputs / Inputs

Management
• Management is decision making
• The manager is a decision maker
• Now fast changing, complex environment
• Trial-and-error: not a great approach
• Factors affecting decision making (Figure 1.1)
• Technology / Information/Computers
• Structual Complexity / Competition
• International markets / Political Stability / Consumerism
• Changes, Fluctuations

Management Science
Scientific approach to automate
managerial decision making
1. Define problem
2. Classify problem
3. Construct mathematical model
4. Find and evaluate potential solutions
5. Choose and recommend a solution

Modeling: Transforming the real-world problem


into an appropriate prototype structure

Decision Making

• Decision Making: a process of choosing among


alternative courses of action for the purpose of
attaining a goal or goals

• Managerial Decision Making is synonymous with


the whole process of management (Simon, 1977)

Decision Support Systems (DSS)
(Gorry and Scott-Morton, 1971)

“interactive
computer-based systems,
which help decision makers
utilize data and models to
solve unstructured problems”

Decision Support Systems (DSS)
(Keen and Scott-Morton, 1978)

“Decision support systems couple the


intellectual resources of individuals with
the capabilities of the computer to
improve the quality of decisions.
It is a computer-based support system for
management decision makers who deal
with semistructured problems.”

Major DSS Characteristics

(DSS In Action 1.5: Houston Minerals Case)

• Initial risk analysis (management science)


• Model scrutiny using experience, judgment, and intuition
• Initial model mathematically correct, but incomplete
• DSS provided very quick analysis
• DSS: flexible and responsive. Allows managerial intuition and
judgment

Why Use DSS?

Perceived benefits
• decision quality
• improved communication
• cost reduction
• increased productivity
• time savings
• improved customer and employee satisfaction
