• Accounting Information System
• Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
• Decision Support Systems (DSS)
• Enterprise Resource Management (ERP)
• Human Resource Management

These types of systems support critical business functions and operations that every organization must manage. The effective manager understands the purpose of these types of systems and how they can best be used to manage the organization’s data and information.
