ABC Chemical Corporation: Recognizing the types and roles of Information Systems

ABC Chemical uses the internet and an electronic commerce website to connect to its customers and suppliers, and to capture data and share information about sales orders and purchases. Sales and order data are processed immediately, and inventory and other databases are updated. Videoconferencing and electronic mail services are also provided. Data generated by a chemical refinery process are captured by sensors and processed by a computer that also suggests answers to a complex refinery problem posed by an engineer.

Finally, top management can access text summaries and graphic displays that identify key elements of organizational performance and compare them to industry and competitor performance.

ABC Chemical Corporation has started forming business alliances and using intranets, extranets, and the internet to build a global electronic commerce website to offer their customers worldwide products and services.
