Management support systems (MSS) include a variety of information systems designed to support decision-making at the managerial level, including decision support systems (DSS), executive information systems (EIS), and enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems. Supply chain management systems (SCM) and geographic information systems (GIS) are examples of specific types of information systems that may be used as part of a larger MSS. Electronic meeting systems (EMS) are not typically included in the MSS category as they are focused on improving communication and collaboration rather than decision-making.
