Using IT for Decision Making
First, read the Week 2 Content on Data and How Information Supports Decision Making, paying particular attention to the Levels of Decision Making. For this discussion, we will use a retail business as an example. The retail business will consist of corporate headquarters, regions (oversees several stores in a geographic area), and individual stores. Each of these aligns with one of the three levels of decision makers in an organization.
Main Post: Select one of the levels of decision making and identify one decision that a manager at that level might make. The decision must relate to the retail business and what it does. Then, explain what information a manager at that level might get from the IT systems, such as inventory management or customer information system, to aid in making that decision.
Example:
Managerial Level: The Regional Director makes the decision to shift inventory that is not selling from one store to another store with higher sales in those items. To support this decision, the Regional Director would need information on sales of specific products by store.
