Information System Planning (ISP):

• Information System Planning (ISP) is a structured approach developed

by IBM to assist organizations in establishing a plan to satisfy their
short and long term information requirements.
• Information system planning or IS planning remains an essential
ailment of corporate sectors and business planning roadmaps in
today's world. Because information is transferred to and from systems
with different requirements for different groups, it is necessary that the
purposes of the systems must be clearly defined from the initial phase.

Phases of ISP:
Business Strategy:
• At a managerial level, the organization's directors and founders need
to clarify what goals and missions they are striving to achieve in the
foreseeable future. With operations management, actuarial analysis,
and predictive financial analysis, the company drafts a roadmap of the
direction and avenues of the business.
Information systems mission:
• After the clear outlining phase of the business goals and strategy, the
level of automation in each and every avenue is highlighted. This
system's mission is to determine the role of automation and systems
and how these systems would beneficially complement the larger
elements of business strategy.

Information Systems Components:
• It is essential to dive into the details of the components that can
comprise the information system. All components of the information
systems, including hardware and software dependencies,
requirements, and target timelines, need to be deduced with the help
of a systems analyst.
Information systems initiatives and budget
• After the technological and system components have been realized and
derived with the help of an expert systems analyst, the team proceeds to
define the exact initiative plans to lead the company incrementally into a fully
evolved organization with all supplementing systems' requirements met.
Furthermore, budget allotments for each module and any need for funding or
financial dependency are considered at this stage.

Challenges:
Several challenges exist and emerge in the process of information systems planning
due to the unpredictability of the managerial goals, economic conditions, and financial
dependencies for systems. Some of the challenges are highlighted below:
❖ Conflicts between directors
❖ Change in the company's values and goals
❖ Complacency towards automation from the managerial end
❖ System updates and depreciates old systems

However, step-sized progress and thorough segmentation of each system with the
corresponding organizational goal can minimize the floating risks. Moreover, proactive
feedback and coordination of managerial teams and room for margin would reduce any
negative cycle introduced in the information systems execution.

Data and Information
Management Issues:

• Data and information management is essential for business in order to

ensure regulatory compliance by handling data correctly. In addition, it
drives operational excellence by delivering consistent data and thus
stimulate growth. Conversely, data management problems could lead
to a variety of issues. These range from poor risk management
decisions to lost data. Therefore, we list some of the most common
problems that can occur when it comes to data management.

Information Systems
Economics:

• The Economics of Information Systems and Software focuses on the

economic aspects of information systems and software, including
advertising, evaluation of information systems, and software
maintenance. The book first elaborates on value and values, software
business, and scientific information as an economic category.
• Information technology connects individuals, firms, and governments
via information networks and shared databanks, thereby facilitating
the production, distribution, and consumption of information
within the whole economy and society.

Relationship Between
Economics & IS:
• Economists study the impact of information systems on the
economy. This means finding out how information systems impact
standard metrics of economics such as productivity, employment, job
security, profitability, GDP, income and a host of other measurements
of economic performance and activity.
• IMO Economics is a social science that deals with the production,
distribution, and consumption of goods and services. Information
systems technology can be considered as a vehicle to support
economics operations.

Information System HR
Planning:
• A human resources information system (HRIS) is a software solution
that maintains, manages, and processes detailed employee
information and human resources-related policies and
procedures. Besides hardware and software, it also includes people,
forms, policies, procedures and data. Modern HRIS can help
organizations by automating most HR planning functions. HRIS
becomes an important strategic tool since it collects, manages and
reports information for decision making.
• Technology has noticeably changed HR management; most
organizations provide universal access to HR services through
technology and web-based applications.
