Read the passage given below and answer the question based on your understanding of the passage:
To survive, thrive and beat the completion in today’s brutally competitive world one has to manage the future. Managing the future means managing the information. In order to manage the information, in order to deliver high quality information to the decision makers at the right time, in order to automate the process of data collection, collation and refinement, organizations have to make information technology (IT) an ally, harness its full potential and use in the best way possible.
We have seen that in today’s competitive business environment, the key resource of every organization is information. If the organization does not have an efficient and effective mechanism that enable it to give the decision-makers the right information at the right time, then the chances of the organization succeeding in the next millennium are very remote.
The three fundamental characteristics of information are accuracy, relevancy and timeliness. The information has to be accurate, it must be relevant for the decision maker and it must be available to the decision maker when he needs it. Any organization that has the mechanism to collect, collate, analysis and present high quality information to its employees, ‘thus enabling them to make batter decisions, will always be one step ahead of the competition. Today, the time available for an organization to react to the changing market trends in very short. To survive, the organization must always be on its toes, gathering and analyzing the data-both internal and external. Any mechanism that will automate this information gathering and analysis process will enhance the chances of the organization to beat the competition.
