Progress or failure of an  organization in today’s highly competitive and technological business world is based on the information flow between the departments within and outside the organization.Here the role of information technology becomes very important.Also a company's management information system makes use of technology and its applications.


The areas which are affected by IT in an organization are as under:

1. DEVELOPING AN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY STRATEGY


Issues like Critical Success Factors, IT planning and manpower are considered. Manpower is very important as it can decide on the Strategy being successful or not.


2. STRATEGIC USE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY


This is a broad area where a lot of core issues come up. Questions like

b. What impact has IT on the business world?
c. What opportunities have IT brought into the business areas of the Company?

The spotless blend of IT Strategy with Corporate Strategy has to be achieved through the principles of SUIT


3. QUALITY MANAGEMENT

Methods of Quality Control, Audits, different strategies used in TQM are dealt with in this area. As Quality cannot easily be defined, the study of Quality Control and its upkeep deserve our keen involvement and interest.

IT can be used to develop new products or processes or to improve existing products and processes so as to achieve a competitive edge in the market or to effect significant improvements in internal operations.

The strategic use of IT in an organization is necessary for the bending of the IT strategy into the corporate strategy.

So , these three areas are the ones which decides strategic uses of information technology in an organization.
