Computer Project

The company sells figurines and has four stores but is not very profitable due to inefficiencies like not accepting credit cards, slow membership processing, high staffing costs, and time spent counting inventory by hand and finding paper records. The objective is to create a stock inventory software system using barcodes to more efficiently monitor inventory, store customer and membership information digitally, and reduce costs. This is expected to increase profits by eliminating expenses like physical storage space and staff while allowing the acceptance of credit cards.

System Analysis

Introduction
is a company involved in the sale of figurine of characters from movies, anime and games. The
stated company has four branches in Brunei, two located in the capital, one in Seria Town and
the other in Serusop.

The company has created its own magazine showing not only its products but special offers,
promotion sales and even has a comic section in it. The company sells by first come first serve
which means no booking of goods.

The company has a warehouse behind everyone of its shop so that time will not be waste to
replenish its stock. The company orders its goods from all over the world thus having a wide
variety. The goods are ordered as soon as amount of that particular good has reach fifty so that
customers don’t have to wait for weeks or months for the goods to come in when the goods
finish. When the company orders goods it orders by the hundreds so that the company doesn’t
have to order so many times and it is cheaper ordering in this way.

The company accepts cash and cheque. Customers can apply for membership privileges such as
a 5% discount and free magazines for 1 year. The company has employed two staff to handle
each store, five in the warehouse and two others to manage the particulars of its members.

Even with this much assets and a lot of staff, the business isn’t making much profit and is very
efficient due to problems such as:

 Doesn’t accept credit cards which can be at times inconvenient to customer


 Slow in recording and confirming membership particular
 Money used on wages is high due to large number of staff
 Too much time consumed on counting stock
 Information and member’s particular are written on paper which takes up a lot of space
 Time is wasted trying to search for documents due to large amount of paper
Objectives
The main objective is to create stock inventory software for monitoring the stock, implementing
the use of bar-coding system, recording and storing of information, and saving space while
using as little resources and money as possible by bringing in the usage of computer into the
business. The recording of information through spreadsheet is faster and more efficient.

 Not much money and space is needed to buy paper and cupboards to keep the paper as
information is stored in the computer
 Lesser staff is needed to count stock with the stock inventory software in fruition
