Editorial Reviews

Product Description

The Baltzan and Phillips approach in Business Driven Information Systems discusses various business initiatives first and how technology supports those initiatives second. The premise for this unique approach is that business initiatives drive technology choices in a corporation. Therefore, every discussion addresses the business needs first and addresses the technology that supports those needs second. This approach takes the difficult and often intangible MIS concepts, brings them down to the student’s level, and applies them using a hands-on approach to reinforce the concepts. BDIS provides the foundation that will enable students to achieve excellence in business, whether they major in operations management, manufacturing, sales, marketing, etc. BDIS is designed to give students the ability to understand how information technology can be a point of strength in an organization.

5.0 out of 5 stars Timely delivery, September 28, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I needed books for college and did not have very long to wait. I received my books ordered in a timely manner. I had never ordered anything online and was not sure about how secure this would be but it was totally worth. After I had compared prices with other ways to purchase I realized I found the best deal. I would not hesitate to order books or products this way again if I need anything.

2.0 out of 5 stars Turned out not to be the 2nd edition as indicated, September 4, 2009
This book turned out not to be the 2nd edition as noted. It has caused some difficulties and I will have to re-purchase the correct book. If the seller has one that specifically says "2nd Edition" on the cover, I would be happy to swap out for the correct one.

Please let me know before I look elsewhere.
