    1. Support of Strategic Advantage (Competition strategy)
    2. Support of Managerial decision-making
    3. Support of Business Operation

    c) Characteristics of MIS
    i. Relevance : The information a manager receives from an MIS has to relate to the decisions the manager has to make. An effective MIS takes data that originates in the areas of activity that concern the manager at any given time, and organizes it into forms that are meaningful for making decisions.
    ii. Accuracy: A key measure of the effectiveness of an MIS is the accuracy and reliability of its information. The accuracy of the data it uses and the calculations it applies determine the effectiveness of the resulting information.
    iii. Usefulness: The information a manager receives from an MIS may be relevant and accurate, but it is only useful if it helps him with the particular decisions he has to make.
    iv. Timeliness: MIS output must be current. Management has to make decisions about the future of the organization based on data from the present, even when evaluating trends.
    v. Completeness: An effective MIS presents all the most relevant and useful information for a particular decision.

    Limitations of management Information system
    1. Highly sensitive requires constant monitoring.
    2. Budgeting of MIS extremely difficult.
    3. Quality of outputs governed by quality of inputs.

    Benefits of MIS:
    1. It facilitates planning, minimizes information overload, encourages decentralization, brings Co-ordination and makes control easier
    2. MIS assembles, process, stores, Retrieves, evaluates and disseminates the information.

    e) Why MIS is required

    Benefits of a Marketing Information System
    If you are a marketing manager or business owner, finding effective ways to market your business is vital. Marketing information becomes even more important if you are part of a crowded market with many competitors or you have a product that isn't well known. If you don't have good information, such as the data found in sales reports, you may end up wasting a lot of time and money on ineffective marketing activities. An investment in an MIS system is an effective way to help you organize and prepare your marketing campaigns.
