ABSTRACT
Management information
technology used for improving
staff performance in an organization is being examined in this research. The
quest for efficient workforce to ensure improve staff performance has
been the pre-occupation of every
business organization.
The outcome of the development of
new gadgets of modern technology is the availability of information on all walks of life. A large amount
of information technology is available
now in a fraction of time that person would have taken days to gather the
cost of this effort in next to nothing.
The changes that have taken
place now are the
fold of communication and technology are
“The Information Technology" like all
other revolution. This one also has been started and no one knows how it
will end. But we processed the capacity of analyze the challenges that information
age possess in our ordinary
and working lives and how to develop on the opportunities thrown up by it.
The me3thdology employed to achieve these objectives were a combination of
secondary and primary source of information. The
primary source involved field survey. This consisted of administering questionnaire. Data collected was analysed
using simple percentages and chi-square.
The study then discovered the following as findings:
Ø The introduction information
technologies in the producing industry appear to have brought it some increase
in the efficiency and effectiveness of industries.
Ø The adoption of information technology components not only
eases information processing and retrieval system, which ensure quick, fast and
prompt services delivery.
Ø Application of information technology also increases
productivity and competitiveness through the development of new products.

1.1 Background of the Study
Today,
we all aware of information Technology (information revolution) in which the
supply of data is increase rapidly over few years. The blend in of internet technology has a
huge impact in the changing of traditional business, and is ready the latest
phase in the business world whereby all business firm need to update their
infrastructures and change the way they work in order to respond more
immediately to consumer need. Today
workers also have instant access to all the data they could ever want. Though, this ease of information exchange
also has its draw back emails, fax machine, voice mail, web site, snail mail
pagers cell-phone and overnight express countries are petting employee with a
surplus of data as a result of these the employee the finding it difficult of
discriminate between useful and useless information and between what is truly
important and what is routine.
The
outcome of the development of new gadgets of modern technology is the
availability of information on all walks of life. A large amount of information is available
now in a fraction of time that person would have taken days to gather the cost
of this effort in next nothing.
The
change that are taken place now is the fold of communication and technology are
“The information Revolution" like all
other revolution. This one also has been started and no one know how it ill end.
But we processed the capacity of analyze the challenge that information age possess in our ordinary and working lives and how to develop on the opportunity
thrown up by it.
The Internet is like to be a source of interaction with consumer and the
respective organizations. The use and development or Internet technology is
directly tied to the current culture and the future and the future opportunities
contemporary organization.
Effective information management is of such strategy
importance in business today that many companies
hire a top level manager called Chief Information Officer (CIO) to design and develop the company's decision-making process.
Everyone initiatives and receiver importance one form or another ill your home, your

can possibly absorb. Business people use information to increase
organizational, efficiencies to stay ahead of competitor, find new customers,
keep current customers loyal and achieve competitive advantages. As a
businessperson you will be expected to know how to use technology to manage
information effectively in the work place.
The research tried to examine both the relationship
between information
technology systems. Some organization considered it as a
luxury. However some of the problem faced by organizations that are not ready information
technology include.
The research tried to examine both relationship between information technologies as it influence on the performance of organization.
1.2 Statement or Problems
Despite the advantage draw from proper installation of
information technology system, some organization considered it as a luxury.
However, some of the problems faced by organizations that are not ready to be cognizance or information
technology include:
Ø There has been continuous case of inadequate security of
data and organizational property in the past.
Ø The adoption of information technology system is regarded as a
concept that reduced organizational profitability due it increase in

Ø Will the adoption of information
technology enhance employee job
performance?
Ø Will the cost of training and development of staff
in order to adapt to

1.7 Research Methodology
This is centre to the procedure adopted for data
collection and analysis. Significant of the methodology adopted for any
research study cannot be over emphasized. This is because the extent to which
the result of any research work can depend upon the method used by the research
colleting processing data.
Research Design
The survey research design will be adopted for this study. The purpose of this research
design is to analyze the impact of information technology on organizational performance.
The population and sample
Since the quality of data that goes into a study largely
determined the quality of information. The population of this study will
comprise the organization staff and management. The working population of this
study largely determines the quality of some selected industries.
Research Instrument
Since the quality of data that goes into a study largely
determines the quality of information that will hold both source data (primary
and secondary source) was used.
1.8 Scope and Limitation of the Study
It should be noted that information is applicable to all
business organization be it profit making or not, private
or public organization. The scope of this
study is to cover the public sector of
the selected industries.
The researcher was limited by a number of factors among
which are inadequate time and material resources
to carry out the study
extensively besides, paucity of funds affected the scope
of the study and likewise the distribution of the research instruments. Another
constraint that may likely hinder an in-depth
analysis of the study is inaccessibility to S01l1e relevant data.
More so, bearing in mind the number of industries in the country, the
industries under consideration forms a
very small proportion in this regard.
1.9 Organization of the Study
This study reveals the effects of information technology on organizational
productivity. This research work will be categorized into five chapters.
Chapter one gave an insight to the
introduction of this research work. By
highlight the background of the study and explained briefly the historical background of the study, it will also mention the objective, scope and limitation study, research
hypothesis, question, methodology, definition of terms and the light.
Chapter two will deal with literature review
of relevant
heptameters, and it will consist of related works and more imperial
done in the past.
Chapter three of research work will be the methodology or gathering
