Abstract
The lack of a general theory of managerial information requirements is proposed as an underlying cause of the many MIS failures. This paper takes a first step toward developing such a theory. Viewing decision making as a production process (decisions being produced in much the same manner as normal goods or services), microeconomic concepts are employed to provide descriptive and normative guidance for the development of MIS.
