Abstract(s)
A contabilidade é uma ciência em evolução existindo a necessidade de implementar sistemas de informação que ajudem os gestores. A evolução da contabilidade, a par do crescimento das plataformas informáticas e a exigência de vários organismos estatais desencadearam uma adaptabilidade constante por parte das organizações. Com a constante solicitação de informação, os gestores passaram a ter menos tempo para o controlo e análise, por isso a presença dos sistemas de informação vieram otimizar processos e oferecer informação verdadeira para a tomada de decisão. Esta investigação apresenta um estudo de caso realizado numa organização que opera no mercado português. Em termos gerais pretende-se analisar como é que os sistemas de informação contribuem para o controlo de gestão de uma organização. Mais especificamente pretende-se observar e interpretar o SI disponível na organização assim como analisar o envolvimento e aceitação do SI pelos colaboradores da organização propondo melhorias a implementar no SI atual. Através de um questionário aos colaboradores da organização verificou-se que os sistemas de informação são relevantes para as tarefas realizadas individualmente, mas também para a organização. Ao constatar a importância dos softwares implementados na organização, sentiu-se ainda que os mesmos têm de ser constantemente adaptados às necessidades da organização. No global conclui-se que os SI trazem muitos benefícios, quer para os colaboradores quer para a organização.
Accounting is an evolving science and there is a need to implement information systems that help managers. The evolution of accounting, along with the growth of IT platforms and the demand from various state bodies have triggered constant adaptability by organizations. With the constant request for information, managers have less time for control and analysis, so the presence of information systems has streamlined processes and provided true information for decision making. This research presents a case study conducted in an organization operating in the Portuguese market. In general terms we intend to analyze how information systems contribute to the management control of an organization. More specifically, we intend to observe and interpret the IS available in the organization as well as to analyze the involvement and acceptance of the IS by the employees of the organization proposing improvements to be implemented in the current IS. Through a questionnaire to the employees of the organization it was found that the information systems are relevant to the tasks performed individually, but also to the organization. Realizing the importance of the software implemented in the organization, it was also felt that they have to be constantly adapted to the needs of the organization. Overall it can be concluded that IS brings many benefits to both employees and the organization.
