(by Craig Huey,) Ethics helps in upholding moral principles, the moral principles differs from one person to the other hence both the customers morality should be put in consideration. The belief and systems and theories in the organizations and the organizational philosophies are put in consideration when building a database (Jamie Walters, 2011)
Due to economic liberty in most of the countries, most of the organization shave changed their organization cultures based on the new policies, and competition, the change in the information technology as it is adopted by most of the organizations has prompted efficiency and good managerial system. Moreover cultural issues in an organization such as resistance to change to the information technology adoption has been greatly embraced by the employee unions hence a challenge to the top managers in the acquisition of new information technology systems in the organization (Tarafdar, Monideepa; Vaidya, Sanjiv, 2007) The roles and importance of management information system security when an organization considers use of new technology Management Information system can be defined as a system or process which provides the information necessary to manage an organization effectively
Information technology has been the new source of wealth in the current trends in most of the organizations with the installation of new information system in most of the organizations; they have successfully enjoyed the competitive advantage which others have not. With increase in the importance of economics and upcoming of new firms there is the need of having a relationship between the capability of information technology in an organization and the organization culture and also the performance of an organization is proposed based on the global firms (Zhang, Man; Tansuhaj, Patriya 2007)
Conclusion The solution to overcoming information overload lies in creating a series of process workflows and accompanying strategic frameworks that can put the massive amount of data being generated into context. Social networks have completed changing marketing, from initial prospect contact through customer service, not because of the data sets but because of the contextual intelligence (Bernoff, Li, 2008)
Taking a more focused approach to creating, fine-tuning and aligning business processes to strategies is critical for it investments and technical systems to pay off over time. These social systems, or the definition of workflows and processes across the organization, must be the foundation of continual growth and evolution of business strategies for it investments to be relevant over time (Collett, 2011)
Yet too often being able to take in literally terabytes of data and analyze it is of limited use without a consistent, strategic framework to make use of it (Rogers, 2011). Too many it organizations are falling victim to speeding up mediocre reporting and analysis processes without first thinking about how to bring greater value into their strategic initiatives with the data (Daly, 2011)
There is also the focus on how to create an even greater level of process efficiency based on the lessons learned from these data sets. With all of these benefits it is no surprise that the majority of companies today are concentrating on how to create the greatest value from their myriad data sets, databases and MDM platforms they have been invested in for decades (Greengard, 2012)
The answer to this dilemma isn't found in more technology; it's found in creating a more effective strategic framework to bring meaning into the data (Kalpic, Bernus, 2006). Making Data Strategic Begins With a Solid Organizational Framework The role of many Chief Information officers (CIOs) in companies is one of being the provider of the it "dial tone," ensuring that existing it systems and resources are stable enough to ensure core functions of a business are sustained over the long-term (Henschen, 2011)

The sheer magnitude of these data marts and the need for very high performance analytics applications including Hadoop to find insights within them are among the most-hyped technologies in the it industry today (Collett, 2011). At the center of this hype is the potential of using the sheer volume of data to gain greater insights into customer relationships, better understanding of supply chains, and also gain insights into who the true influencers are on social networks (LaValle, Lesser, Shockley, Hopkins, Kruschwitz, 2011)
Information Systems and Strategy Finding a Path Out of Information Overload: How Enterprises Can Create a Unified Strategy to Transform Data Into Competitive Advantage Given the exponential increase in data being generated across enterprise, social networking and legacy it systems, the need for ensuring a consistent set of frameworks and objectives are used to bring relevance to this data is critical. The tendency of "boil the ocean" of data through Big Data initiatives including Hadoop, an open source analytics platform, have recently emerged as one viable alternative (McKendrick, 2012)

Additionally ERP systems have Supply Chain Management (SCM), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), and Pricing Management applications included as part of their configuration. These modules streamline supply chain transactions and make it possible for suppliers to stay more in touch with what is going on in manufacturing centers of the companies they sell to (Law, Chen, Wu, 2010)
By being integrated to the company's ERP systems this can be accomplished relatively easily. These two examples of supply chain and CRM integration to ERP systems illustrate how companies are synchronizing their most important functional areas to production and finance (Malhotra, Temponi, 2010)
These form the coordination point of the ERP system so that inbound supplies for production can be accounted for, assigned costs, and then priced as they are produced and sent to distribution channels and customers for sale. In effect ERP systems create an economic ecosystem of a company (Ng, Gable, 2010)
Management Information Systems -- Computer Literacy Management Information Systems Assessing Twitter Social media's pervasive effects on society, from how companies communicate and connect with prospects and customers to how schools use social media to accelerate and augment learning is predicated on real-time communication and collaboration. Twitter specifically has become a foundation of real-time communication and collaboration globally, making it possible for people of comparable interests and ideas to openly and freely share ideas, information and content (Bernoff, Li, 2008)
That is the most important lessons learned from being on Twitter for the last few weeks; it truly is a global, electronic ecosystem that does live by the axiom of getting what one gives. To excel in social media, one must overbalance the scales with exceptionally strong and valuable content, and that goes for business (Curran, O'Hara, O'Brien, 2011) in addition to student learning (Lowe, Laffey, 2011) and especially advanced teaching and the use of student scaffolding strategies (Rinaldo, Tapp, Laverie, 2011)

In seeking to use social media to better understand their customers, enlightened companies are modifying their CRM systems to deliver a much greater level of insight and intelligence than had ever been possible in the past (Carolyn, Parasnis, 2011). For those fortunate companies who view social media channels not as a threat but opportunity to gain greater insights into their customer bases, the integration with CRM system and the development of finely-tuned SCRM platforms is propelling their businesses to new levels of performance (Ang, 2011)
