The evaluation and audit of management information systems

Abstract

Explores recent developments in MIS, discusses the literature relating to evaluation of MIS, and produces a list of possible objectives and key questions to assist in the evaluation and audit of MIS. Focuses on audit objectives relevant to assessing an MIS. Aims to stimulate debate among internal audit professionals on the audit of MIS, in the hope that the involvement of internal auditors in this area will lead to the bridging of the gap between what users want from systems and what information systems designers think are user requirements.
