To improve quality of businesses processes, organizations may decide to pump in more resources or even change their process structures. Organizations that engage in such activities face myriad challenges. Some of these challenges impact their operations either positively or negatively. Adding more resources or changing process structures impact process effectiveness and efficiency (Kroenke, 2013). Adding more resources to organization businesses processes that have efficiencies of scale make such organization's processes more efficient. Entities having no scale efficiencies will suffer reduced efficiencies if more resources are by any chance added to their processes. It is advisable that more resources are added if they make the process more effective (Kroenke, 2013). Organizations that have changed their process structures have realized improved efficiency and effectiveness. Changing business processes can also result into reduced work hence reduced costs. However, there are instances when changing organization's business processes have resulted into increment in cost of doing business. This is nevertheless accompanied with sufficient increase in effectiveness that justifies the increased cost of doing business. It is therefore evident that change in business processes within an organization can improve efficiency and effectiveness. Organizations can add resources and change their process structure at the same time (Kroenke, 2013). Organizations struggling with high inventory costs because inventory is held for protracted periods of time during which customer's credit is checked can remedy the situation by changing the structure of their processes to check credit before checking inventory availability. More people can be employed to lessen the time taken in credit analysis. Such organizations can alternatively invest in an information system to replace the manual credit checking role done by the human beings (Kroenke, 2013). This will reduce amount of time spent in credit checking.

Information system if properly used can help prevent human errors that drive up the cost of doing business. Companies that have integrated Information System in their process have competitive edge over those that do not have such systems in place. Information systems provide support to products. Take an example of a business enterprise that rents out cars. Its information system will give information about the location of the car it has rented out. Its information system night also provide driving instruction to destination (Kroenke, 2013). The system can also help in scheduling car maintenance an initiative that supports the product. Information system, in this regard, helps in creation of new products and services, enhancing products and services, and differentiating products and services. This gives businesses that have such systems in place a competitive advantage (Kroenke, 2013). Organizations having Management Information Systems in place find it relatively easy to achieve their strategies.
