MIS plays a crucial role in the management of any contemporary enterprise such as small, medium or large organizations. Over the past 10 years Management Information System has been receiving an increasing amount of attention, as the source for productivity improvements and cost reductions in their organizations. In this information age, data has become one of the most important resources to organizations. The effective and efficient management of large quantities of data is a common problem found in many industries. In this work, initially it was decided to carry out a survey to verify the implementation, usage and acceptance of MIS in 100 medium scale industries in and around Karnataka state. The study is exclusively based on the primary data collected through a sample survey is conducted on the respondents of the respective organizations by supplying questionnaires. The study reveals that as many as 73 (73%) out of 100 medium scale were making use of MIS in their organization. The study is extended to verify the possible reasons for non usage of MIS in the 27 medium scale industries, so the respondents were requested to provide a feedback on various factors which could be possible reason for non-use of MIS in their respective units by supplying the questionnaires. A five point Likert’s scale was used. The respondents were supposed to give their rating ranging from 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 (5-Strongly Agree, 4-Agree, 3-Neutral, 2-Disagree 1-Strongly Disagree). After collecting the feedback, the average and standard deviation is calculated for each reason for non–use of MIS. It is noticed that the calculated value of standard deviation for each responses is not much, i.e. the smaller the standard deviation, the tighter the distribution of ratings around the mean and greater the consensus. So the collected feedback from the respondents for possible reason for non-usage of MIS is appropriate. To validate these results One-sample t-Tests were carried out with the help of Minitab statistical software.
