Information efficiency and resistance to the risk of losing the continuity of the contemporary organization’s operations

Abstract

The article attempts to holistically address the problem of counteracting the risk of losing the continuity of contemporary organizations in a rapidly changing environment. The environment of systems and modern ICT platforms, along with the use of cyberspace services, determine the information efficiency of organizations. The authors cite several strategies based on systems of various classes, such as domain systems, integrated management information systems (OLTP and OLAP classes), and big-data solutions, ensuring knowledge generation, significantly strengthening the organization’s potential, and ensuring business continuity. They also refer to cloud computing services that eliminate the information exclusion of small business entities. The aim of the study is to confirm that the wide use of the IT/ICT environment plays a crucial role in the transformation of modern companies, and the implementation of various platforms and tools increases the organization’s resilience to the risk of losing business continuity. In implementing the research processes, an analysis of the literature, as well as a desk research analysis were used, which boiled down to assessing the degree of usefulness of IT/ICT tools in creating business continuity. The authors want to emphasize that IT/ICT tools, including selected artificial intelligence models, have significant implications for management theory and practice.
