Business Processes and Information Systems
An information system (IS) is an important part of an organization’s business processes. Information systems facilitate communication and coordination among different functional areas, allow easy exchange of, and access to, data across processes.

An IS helps organizations implement processes efficiently and effectively. Within the human resources (HR) department, CISs (computer information systems) can greatly benefit the department by creating efficient and effective processes.
