Information Resource Management (IRM) represents an imaginative new way of thinking and conducting business in the information age. It is not just another way of using computers. Rather, it is concerned with the development and control of all the resources required to produce information. To many, IRM will represent a radical departure from the mainstream of thinking in today's data processing world which is generally technology oriented. The purpose of this book is to convey to executives a practical approach for the design and development of information resources consistent with their business objectives. Ultimately, the IRM approach demystifies the information systems development process and puts control back in the hands of executive management where it belongs. CHAPTERS INCLUDE
