COMPUTER BASED INFORMATION SYSTEM (CBIS)

BY AQSA RAJA & MAHMONA

DEFINITION

 A computer-based system is quicker, stores

more data, takes less space and is up-to date.
CBIS
Mannual System

 A manual system is a
bookkeeping system where records are
maintained by hand, without using a
computer system. 
Computer (user friendly)
Computer
Explanation

 Computer-based information systems

provide fast, centralized access to databases
of personnel (employ) information, reference
reading, best practices and on-the-job
training, and are easily customizable to meet
an organization's needs.
 This an information system
Information system

 information system,  set of components for

collecting, storing, and processing data and
for providing information, knowledge, and
digital products
Information system
Types of CBIS

 There are four basic types of computer-based

information Systems:
 Transaction Processing Systems (TPS)
 Management Information Systems (MIS)
 Decision Support Systems (DSS)
 Executive Support Systems (ESS)

 Components:
 Hardware: 
 Software: 
 Data: 
 Procedures: 
 People:
Hardware

 The term hardware refers to machinery.

This category includes the computer itself,
which is often referred to as the central
processing unit (CPU), and all of its
support equipments.
Software

 The term software refers to computer

programs and the manuals (if any) that
support them
Data

 Data are facts that are used by program to

produce useful information. Like programs,
data are generally stored in machine-
readable from on disk or tape until the
computer needs them.
Procedures

 Procedures are the policies that govern the

operation of a computer system. “
People

  Every Computer Based Information System

(CBIS) needs people if it is to be useful. Often
the most over-looked element of the CBIS is
the people: probably the components that
most influence the success or failure of
information system.

Advantages

 Access Speeds
 Confidentiality
 Audit Trail
 Space needed and Availability of Data
 Redundancy
Access speed

 a computer-based system can sort store and

retrieve data much more quickly.
Confidentiality

 Files within a computer-based information

system can be password-protected and
encrypted, so that only authorized users can
access the data
Audit Trail

 Computer systems can record which user

accessed which data, at what time, as well as
any modifications that were made

a record of the changes that have been made
to a database or file.
Space needed and Availability of Data

 Filing cabinets are bulky, and even a modest

system could easily expand to fill a room.
Whereas computer systems automatically
sort data, manual systems require continual
maintenance in order to retain their integrity,
otherwise the system can fall to pieces very
quickly.
Redundancy

 Redundancy is when an employer reduces

their workforce because a job or jobs are no
longer needed
 Computer data is easy to copy, and
therefore backup copies can be maintained. A
manual system contains only one copy of
each piece of data, unless an expensive
duplication routine is followed.
Disadvantages

 Unemployment and lack of job security 

 Dominant culture – 
 Security issues –
 Implementation expenses –
Unemployment and lack of job security 

 As technology improves, tasks that were

formerly performed by human employees are
now carried out by computer systems.
Unemployment and job security
Dominant culture – 

 Information technology may have made the

world a global village; it has also contributed
to one culture dominating another weaker
one.
 Our society become a digital culture
Digital culture
Implementation expenses –

 For integrate the information system it

requires pretty good amount of cost in a case
of software, hardware and people
Conclusion

 There are a wide variety of computer based

information systems that are available to
managers to use. Different systems are used for
different purposes depending on the type of
organization and the purpose of the organization,
for example a manager at a nonprofit
organization or a government agency will use
different computer based information systems to
gather and analyze their data for their specific
purpose.
