Information systems exist to answer questions from the user or to accumulate and filter data to provide a store of what stakeholders have determined to be of value for decision making or evaluation. It has been found that systems development often is done in an environment where the mission and goal are unclear, the budget is either nonexistent or ill-defined, and the project manager is not prepared for the effort. In the field of information science, there are two sayings that come to the professional mind when a system fails: “Garbage in, garbage out,” and “When you don't know where you are, any map will do.” Molecular Information Theory and Practice provides a method that allows management to relate in a common environment with IT professionals. With the implementation of this method, IT staff can complete a new design or system upgrade on time and on budget.
