In this report, the objective is to make an investigation and a research of a certain type of information technology in the workplace and the way that this technology would be able to bring about positive advantages to the organisation. For the company that was selected, the system that was proposed to be developed is a management information system. The problems faced by the Avtovaz company are said to stem from the presence of a computer system that is very inefficient and not integrated at all.
