STUDY ON IMPLEMENTATION USAGE & ACCEPTANCE OF MIS IN INDIAN INDUSTRIES

In this work, initially it was decided to carry out a survey to verify the implementation, usage & acceptance of MIS in 350 industries (200 small scale, 100 medium scale and 50 large scale). The study reveals that only 96 (46%) out of 200 small scale industries, as many as 73 (73%) out of 100 medium scale industries & as high as 46 (98%) out of 50 large scale industries were using MIS. It is observed that, comparatively the percentage of usage of MIS is more in large scale and medium scale than in small scale industries. The study is extended to find out the possible reasons for the non-usage of MIS. To validate these results different analysis such as Descriptive Statistics, One-Sample T-Test, Bivariate Correlation and One-Way ANOVA tests were carried out with the help of SPSS & Minitab statistical software. Brief descriptions of the significance of these tests are discussed. Finally, the main reason for the non-use of MIS in these industries are due to the limited use of computers, unawareness of potential activities which a computer can handle & incomplete or no information about MIS & its benefits, lack of awareness & inadequate training provided to employees are noticed.
