    Introduction -- The international organization -- International information system issues -- Software design within global MIS -- MIS process definitions and the capability maturity model -- Cultural issues, human resource management and the CMM -- Global infrastructure considerations -- Analysis and method proposition -- Appendix A- Specialization and standardization for strategic information systems -- Appendix B- Internal vs. external software development evaluation -- Appendix C- Groupware guidelines for success -- Appendix D- Elements for human resource evaluation.
    This paper presents the administrative roles and the tools needed for Global Management Information Systems. The area of greatest need upon which this paper will focus is an effective management guideline for firms that compete internationally. Software processes currently in use and their relationship to the executive management function of an international organization are presented. Software tools to be evaluated include the ISO standard for software development and purchase, and the Capability Maturity Model for process maturity evaluation.
    The contribution will provide an analysis and guideline for management roles and practices. A guideline, based on models reviewed, follows. The guideline will outline what senior management needs to know in managing software professionals, projects, vendor products and hardware technology in the international marketplace. The guideline will be of use to both service and manufacturing organizations.
    The audience for this paper is senior managers in multinational organizations; senior managers of large and medium domestic organizations may find much of the research and analysis useful. The emphasis on the multinational firm is based on the unique information requirements of this type of organization. The guideline used for the multinational firm can more readily be extrapolated for domestic managers of large scale management information systems.
    The selection of the multinational enterprise and the determination of its role in software assurance are attempts to provide a basis for technology management in organizations that no longer compete and produce within local markets, but rather in the new world markets that are expanding. Another motive for using the multinational enterprise, is the unique information a firm with this structure requires.
