  Management Information System
       
           (MIS) A computer system, usually based on a
          mainframe or minicomputer, designed to provide management
          personnel with up-to-date information on an organisation's
          performance, e.g. inventory and sales.  These systems output
          information in a form that is useable by managers at all
          levels of the organisation: strategic, tactical, and
          operational.  A good example of an MIS report is an annual
          report for a stockholder (a scheduled report).
