Abstract

Managers today are faced with an ever‐expanding range of options when it comes to managing information within their organizations. Although we build bigger, better and faster machines, the sheer volume of information is expanding more rapidly than our capacity to process it. The problem lies with the software. Most of it is obsolete by the time it is delivered and the design is such that it is nearly impossible to make changes without totally redesigning it. Today's corporation must be flexible and the company's information system must be capable of evolving along with the organization.
