I’m very fortunate that I have received at most and sincere guidance and co-operation from gratitude to our respected teacher Mr.. Md. Raunchily Amah Lecturer of MIS of Leading University, Sleet. For giving me an assignment on “Management Information Systems of the Jejuna Fertilizer Company Limited” which has given me a great opportunity to increase my knowledge on preparing an MIS report. Also teach us how to collect data or information. Abstract
Through this project report an endeavor has been taken to emphasize on Management Information Systems (MIS) and the need of it in an organization as well as in Bangladesh. MIS can be the foundation of a business but it can also be expensive. It is important that the information system should be designed and organized to match the needs of the firm. Designing and creating effective information system is a complex task and several techniques have been developed to manage organizations and build information systems because here in our country lots of companies being established rapidly.
In spite of this the importance and implementation of MIS are also increasing rapidly. In this project we will focus on the role of MIS in Jejuna Fertilizer Company Limited OFFS). The Jejuna Fertilizer Company Limited OFFS) is the largest enterprise of Bangladesh Chemical Industries Corporation (BCC). CFML is implementing MIS in most of their sectors, such as: Manufacturing, HARD, RSI, Org. Structure, data transformation etc. The Management Team members of CFML have strong backgrounds in both computer hardware and software development.
This report will also provide information and identify the potential areas wherein the MIS could be effectively used. Management information system (MIS) or computer information system (CICS) consists of five related components: Hardware, Software, People, Procedure, and Collections of data. Information technologies (IT) represents the various types of hardware and software used in an information system including computers and networking equipment’s. The physical equipment used in computing is called hardware. The set of instruction that controls the hardware is known as software.
MIS components work together to provide information and help managers run the firm, solve problem and make decision. There is some lacking in business loving networking system like MIS/CICS/IT in the CFML. Main barriers are a lack of leadership, motivation and shortage of skill manpower to implement MIS in CFML.

Recommendation Background of study 1. 1 Introduction: A Management Information System (MIS) is a system that provides information needed to manage organizations effectively. Management information systems Limitations and People It’s important to recognize that while all three resources are key components when studying management information systems, the most important resource is people.
Management information systems are regarded as a subset of the overall internal controls procedures in a business, which cover the application of people, documents, technologies, and procedures used by management accountants to solve business robbers such as costing a product, service or a business-wide strategy. Management information systems are distinct from regular information systems in that they are used to analyze other systems applied in operational activities in the organization.
Academically, the term is commonly used to refer to the group of information management methods tied to the automation or support of human decision making, such as-Decision support Systems, Expert, and Executive. Typically, in a corporation, MIS (Management Information Systems)is a general term for the computer systems in an organization that provide information about its business operations. Types of Information Management Systems There are many types of information management systems in the market that provide a wide range of benefits for companies.
They are given below:- ; Transaction processing systems (TIPS) Collect and record the routine transactions of an organization. Examples of such systems are sales order entry, hotel reservations, payroll, employee record keeping, and shipping. ; Management information systems (MIS) Produce fixed, regularly scheduled reports based on data extracted and summarized from the firm’s underlying transaction processing systems (TIPS) to middle and operational level managers to provide answers to structured and semi-structured decision problems. Decision-support systems (ADS) are computer program applications used by middle management to compile information from a wide range of sources to solve problems and make decisions. ; Executive support systems (SEES) is a reporting tool that provides quick access to summarized reports coming from all company levels and departments such as accounting, human resources and Advantages of Information Management Systems The following are some of the benefits that can be attained for different types of information management systems. L) The company is able to highlight their strength records etc.
The identification of these aspects can help the company to improve their business processes and operations. (2) The availability of the customer data and feedback can help the company to align their business processes according to the needs of the customers. The effective management of customer data can help the company to perform direct marketing and promotion activities. (3) Information is considered to be an important asset for any company in the modern competitive world. The consumer buying trends and behaviors can be predicted by the analysis f sales and revenue reports from each operating region of the company.
Now days there are lots of importance of MIS in an organization. Though it can’t be expressed broadly, the above are some of its advantages.

To investigate the robbers of existing information systems. -To identify the information sources of business units in the CFML. -To make recommendations for implementation of the MIS the fertilizer company. METHODOLOGY OF THIS STUDY Basically there are two types of methodology. One is Primary data and another is secondary data. Primary data: Primary data are those type of data that Vive collected information or survey directly on the organization. Secondary data: Secondary data are those type of data that Vive collected information from online or any reference books.
To make this overall assignment Vive followed the sources like, online, reference book, ND Journal. LIMITATION OF THIS STUDY There are some limitations of this study. Therefore the assignment may lack some crucial data. 1 . Necessary data and information an neither adequate nor well finished. 2. The duration that is for assignment program is not enough to learn about the MIS system of Jejuna Fertilizer Company Limited. 3. This assignment does not analyze the critical analysis of different sectors in the MIS in details. The assignment has encountered these limitations that may have hinder progress.
But with constant effort, our goal was to minimize the negative efforts of these Justification There are 500 chemical industries corporations in Asia. BCC is one of them. It is undoubtedly our nation’s pride. In this context, it may be noted that BCC started its functioning from 1st July, 1976. At that time BCC had enterprises under its management, but at present BCC has 13 enterprises under its control. It means that the BCC has been becoming smaller and smaller day-by-day for the disinvestment policies of the government.
Therefore the BCC needs to take decision for the implementation of MIS in industries to increase productivity, performance and to survive for existence and CFML as well.

SOOT analysis and findings Introduction :- Every Institute need to do their SOOT analysis. Because it helps to find its strengths and weakness. SOOT Analysis:- A SOOT analysis must first start with defining a desired end state or objective. A SOOT analysis may be incorporated intonate strategic planning model. Strategic Planning has been the subject of much research. S tree n get h s: characteristics of the business or team that t give it an advantage over others in the industry. ;Weaknesses : are characteristics that place the firm at a disadvantage relative to others. Environment. ;Threats: external elements in the environment that could cause trouble for the business. Identification of SHOTS is essential because subsequent steps in the process of planning for achievement of the selected objective may be derived from the SHOTS. Strengths:- A firm’s strengths are its resources and capabilities that can be used as a base for developing a competitive advantage. MIS focus as monitoring the most essential parts and functions of CFML to make online monitoring affordable forever compressor, turbine, pump, equipment and each business unit. ;In CFML, data entry works have been executing by using computer since 2000. Therefore, daily productions report, inspection report, technical minutes, different process data sheet of urea, ammonia &utility plant are preparing by computer. Weaknesses:- The absence of certain strengths may be viewed as a weakness. The following may be considered weaknesses: ;CFML, detecting serious damage to prevent the machine from catastrophic, costly failures. CFML has no strong brand identity in front of world. Opportunities:- The external environmental analysis may reveal certain new opportunities for profit and growth. Such opportunities include: ;MIS can apply for online monitoring systems as a valuable tool for machine maintenance.
