dc.description.abstract Management Information Systems provide managers with information used in decision making and problem solving. A well designed system will definitely assist managers whereas an ill-structured system may cause big losses. There are various mechanisms for the preparation of effective management information systems (MIS). This study shows how a management information system is developed for production control purposes in a factory producing shaving products. The aim of the study is forming a production control system which will report resources (i.e. machines and labor) performances so that decisions to minimize costs may be taken in advance. First step in every MIS development project is the requirements analysis and determination. For this reason, the current system is analyzed, data flow diagrams and data dictionaries are prepared. Using these tools, weaknesses and strengths of the current system are determined. The next step is to design a new system which also make use of data flow diagrams and data dictionaries. And a data model for whole system is formed and implemented using a fourth generation computer language. The tests last for two months where no questions remain unanswered about the new system. The key parameters for the production managers are controlled after six months of operation. And the contnbutions of the MIS system ( PCS ) are stated by the production managers and the factory manager.
