- The MIS is conceived as a data processing and not as an information processing system.
- The MIS does not provide that information which is needed by the managers but it tends to provide the information generally the function calls for. The MIS then becomes an impersonal system.
- Under estimating the complexity in the business systems and not recognizing it in the MIS design leads to problems in the successful implementation.
- Adequate attention is not given to the quality control aspects of the inputs, the process and the outputs leading to insufficient checks and controls in the MIS.
- The MIS is developed without streamlining the transaction processing systems in the organization.
- Lack of training and appreciation that the users of the information and the generators of the data are different, and they have to play an important responsible role in the MIS.
- The MIS does not meet certain critical and key factors of its users such as a response to the query on the database, an inability to get the processing done in a particular manner, lack of user-friendly system and the dependence on the system personnel.
- A belief that the computerized MIS can solve all the management problems of planning and control of the business.
- Lack of administrative discipline in following the standardized systems and procedures, wrong coding and deviating from the system specifications result in incomplete and incorrect information.
- The MIS does not give perfect information to all the users in the organization.
