Abstract

The study examined the implementation of computer-based management information system (MIS) in manufacturing organizations in Nigeria. Specifically, the study sought adopted assess the extent to which the implementation of computer-based management information system in Nigerian’s manufacturing organizations is significant, (ii) determine whether management capacity and resistance to change are significant to the implementation of computer-based management information system in manufacturing organizations. Survey research design was adopted in the study. Purposive sampling technique was used in the study. Data was collected using the questionnaire research instrument and oral interview guide. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used, that is Z-test, and Linear Regression were used for data analysis, at 5% probability level of acceptance (i.e. p < 0.05). The extent computer-based management information system being implemented in Nigerian manufacturing organisations was significant (p < 0.05, Z = 6.03). management capacity to support and sustain the implementation of computer-based MIS and resistance to the implementation of newer/improved systems were significant challenges faced in the implementation of computer-based MIS in Nigerian manufacturing organisations (p < 0.05, Z = 5.48). We conclude that implementation of computer-based management information system (MIS) significant effect on manufacturing organizations in Nigeria. The study recommended that managements of manufacturing organisations should have a policy document that details the computer-based MIS framework for the organization.
