Abstract:

Automation is necessary for companies to increase productivity especially when the company has to handle large volumes of data every day. The GMI Company is one of them wherein sales and procurement transactions happen daily. Although GMI has an existing sales and inventory system being used, the researchers found out that some aspects of their business process still revolve around manual methods. Particularly, the organizing and assigning of product deliveries to delivery vans are still handled through pen and paper. With this, the researchers proposed a system that would not only cover the company’s existing system functionalities, but also add automation for their logistics process. The Agile Methodology was used to develop a web-based system. This required many meetings between the client and the researchers to evolve the requirements of the client. The researchers were able to design and implement a cross-platform website accessible to different departments of the company can access it. Because it is web-based, the system is accessible through the Internet allowing the company’s warehouses 9ito share and sync information easily.
