In 2003, Singh Manufacturing implemented a Web-based information system that allows all employees to access mission-critical information. The intention was to increase production efficiency. Unfortunately, it had the opposite effect, as deliveries fell behind schedule and costs increased. Shaman Gupta, the director of information technology services, asked Ashlee Wells to come in and talk with him about the system.

We’ll bring in the consultants that helped us build the system. Maybe they can help.” Which of the following characteristics of useful information is absent in the situation described above?
