Abstract

This research is about integration of information subsystems from:information system procurement, financial information system, information system security, technical information systems and legal information systems, and about their mutual dependence and close connections in Croatian public companies for energy distribution and supply. Also, herewe research the main goals of procurement information system which must be achieved in every organization because procurement process takes place in every public organization. Based on the model of the business technology matrix their processes can be executed by other companies engaged in similar activities. This research paper describes the timing of the sub processes, also. The timing of sub processes needs to be reduced as much as possible to achieve the planned results at the exit of the sub processes so that the costs of running sub-processes are equal to or lower than they had been so far, but with a higher quality output. We discuss possible threats to the information systems organization, and how to protect electronic information in the process of restoration of electronic data base for the financial information system. At the end the research paper we explain the advantages and disadvantages of cloud computing, information security in the event of possible applications of computing in the clouds and activities for technical information system in the flow diagram.

This article presents the purchase management information system, finance management information system and security information system, their interdependence and tight correlation. Furthermore, we state the goals of the purchase management information system that must be achieved in any organisation, as the purchase (sub)process is carried out in every organisation. P-K matrix gives a detailed presentation of a public organisation, and data classes and sub-processes within the observed organisation. Other companies involved in similar activities can perform their processes in accordance with the presented business technology matrix. The business technology matrix was used for designing a data flow process diagram comprising data flow, warehouses, processes and the external entity which can also be used in such companies. The article also deals with the duration of the sub-processes. The duration of sub-processes must be reduced as much as possible in order to achieve the planned result at the process output point. A hypothesis was set in the article, for the period from the beginning of 2009 until the end of 2010. We observed whether the total cost-effectives coefficient in the company would fall under the threshold value of 1. The article has proven that, based on the sample (profit-and-loss account), there is no reason to discard the H0 hypothesis, as the company's total cost-effectiveness coefficient did not fall below the permitted value of 1 for two years. The third section of the article presents the possible threat to organisations' information systems, and describes methods of protecting electronic information in processes, and recovering electronic databases in finance management information systems.
Article
In order to gain a competitive advantage many companies are engaging in the reorganization of their business processes and implementing process-based management. However, the effects of such change programmes are often not readily apparent. To deal with this shortcoming Process Performance Measurement Systems (PPMS) can be used. The authors argue that modern process-oriented organizations need to establish a system which provides comprehensive and timely information on the performance of business processes. Based on the authors' experience with several enterprises, an approach to composing a sound PPMS is described and conclusions are drawn.
