Project Description

Achievers Plus has been heavily dependent on paper works and manual processes since its founding. This project aims to reduce these manual processes and digitalize some of the paper works to speed up its business processes. By introducing an inventory management system with the help of a barcode system, rentals and selling of gowns will be much easier to track. On the actual day of graduation, the web based inventory management system coupled with mobile application integration speeds up collection and returning of gowns by gaduands. For the e-Commerce site, integrating E-Nets payment makes it easy for graduands to shop and reduce the hassle of handling cash and NETs payments at the counters. Lastly, this project also aims to create hype around graduation rings. The flash based ring designer would entice the graduands to buy these rings as a memorabilia for the whole graduating class.

Project Motivation

The motivation behind this project is to ease and speed up the process for inventory management and to enhance the shopping experience of graduands. The inventory management system automates tracking of inventories in the company as current inventory tracking process is manual and heavily dependent on the memory of the company owner. Other staffs have difficulty tracking inventories without his presence. Current online ordering is used to only place a reservation. It does not keep track of the available inventory nor prevent duplicate orders. The new E-commerce platform would help to prevent these issues. Currently, payments for purchases are via cash and NETs. This creates long queues on collection day. By integrating with E-NETs, this would reduce the amount of cash and NETs payment, thus reducing waiting time. And lastly, Achievers Plus is trying to create hype around graduation ring among local institutions. The online flash based ring customization tool would create interest among graduands and hopefully result in more orders.
