The Significance Effects of Management Information System on Organizational Performance, the Case of Bule Hora University, Ethiopia

Abstract

This study's primary goal was to investigate how Management Information Systems (MIS) are crucial to an organization's performance on a worldwide scale. Most organizations do not yet completely employ MIS to improve their operations. Both explanatory and descriptive study designs with a combination of quantitative and qualitative research methods were employed by the government higher education institution on Bule Hora University. The study collected data from both primary and secondary sources. The management and non-management employees of the chosen 3583 respondents made up the research population. To reach a sample size of 400 respondents, the study used both stratified random sampling and purposive sampling techniques. Primary data was obtained directly from the 162 respondents using a questionnaire that included both closed-ended and open-ended questions. The results of the study show that the management information system and Bule Hora University's organizational performance are positively correlated. The study concludes that management information systems significantly and favorably affect organizational performance. Accordingly, the research advises management to regularly assess her management information system to maintain organizational effectiveness. However, according to the results of the regression analysis, all the independent variables had relatively strong significant and direct effects on organizational performance with p values <0.05, with the exception of strategic planning and management, which had an insignificant effect with a p value of >0.05. It is advised that Bule Hora University regularly assess organizational performance, examine the suggestion box, and take appropriate action considering the research findings.
