Abstract
A growing number of top executives make daily use of computer terminals in their offices. Typically, executive information systems (EIS) share the following: a central purpose; a common core of data; two principal methods of use, which are 1) access to the current status and projected trends of the business, and 2) personalized analyses of the available data; and a support organization. A description of the EIS system at Northwest Industries highlights the development, implementation, and expansion of that system.
