Strategic information systems (SIS) are information systems that are developed in response to corporate business initiative. They are intended to provide a competitive advantage to the organization. They may deliver a product or service that costs less, is differentiated, and focuses on a particular market segment or is innovative.

Strategic information management (SIM) is a salient feature in the world of information technology (IT). It helps businesses and organizations categorize, store, process, and transfer the information they create and receive. It also offers tools for helping companies apply metrics and business analytics tools to their information repositories. This allows the companies to recognize opportunities for growth and identify ways to improve operational efficiency.[1]
