CASE STUDY The management of McDonald's established a team of 15 to spearhead a project for implementation of a management information system (MIS). This committee was tasked with looking at technology in the company as well as current technology that could be relevant for integration into the firm's MIS, identifying training needs and then determining how the firm would acquire the most appropriate technology. The existing system includes miscellaneous formats of monitoring, project-level monitoring, auditor-controller and physically monitoring progress.

For this to be done effectively, McDonald's will have to set in place a systematic monitoring and evaluation program. The MIS will offer a very important framework for managing restaurant operations. Point out to the McDonald's team TWO (2) types of information systems that are at their disposal to assist the company. А. Assess THREE (3) key elements in existence at McDonald's that need to be considered in setting up an information system and maximising the use of technology to guide its transformation as a member of the food industry. В. С. Outline FIVE (5) roles of information systems that should be included in the business venture of McDonald's.
