STEPS IN DEVELOPING MISPreliminary InvestigationIn this phase, the agency needs to critically assess its current system in order to justify the cost and time involved before deciding on having a new MIS. The facilitator needs to clarify the MIS need not always involve computers. However, if there are computers the work gets accelerated.Requirements AnalysisThe facilitator discusses the methods and means of ascertaining the information needs to be addressed by MIS. Further, the mechanisms for gathering information from primary and secondary sources are to be determined by agencies. A critical factor is ascertaining MIS needs of primary and secondary users.System DesignThe facilitator explains basics of a MIS system elucidating the inputs, the processing and the outputs. While inputs include information provided by front-line workers, the outputs could be various types of reports, including those sent periodically to funders. The procedures define how and in what format the information will be inputted and by whom and at what intervals. The storage could be manual or electronic or both. Design specifies the operational parameters at a drawing board stage. One of the inputs for MIS could be information from a client database.Other stagesThe facilitator systematically discusses the different steps in MIS development in a universalized perspective. In other words, it needs to be specified that these steps need to be tailored to one's own situation. In the acquisition stage, hardware is procured after appraisals and cost analysis. Draw attention to the need to ensure compatibility between what is being acquired and what is already available within the agency. The implementation step is a crucial one consuming considerable amount of time in MIS development. Here the application development is done customized to the agency's needs. The procedure and user manuals are developed and personnel are oriented in using MIS.The software is installed once it is tested and debugged.

Various pitfalls in Management Information Systems (MIS) include inadequate data quality leading to inaccurate decision-making, lack of proper integration between different systems causing inefficiencies, and insufficient security measures leaving systems vulnerable to cyber attacks. Additionally, poor user adoption and resistance to change can hinder the successful implementation of MIS within an organization. It is crucial for businesses to address these pitfalls through proper planning, training, and continuous monitoring and improvement of their MIS.
To establish MIS applications budget, a company must determine development costs, maintenance cost, development time, and operational life for each MIS project, or system. In most organizations, the MIS must be presented to a group of skeptical senior executives.
