Introduction
Project Context
In the years, individuals can do things simple as current innovation occur in each
work of each man. Many organizations and enterprises are adjusting in each specialized
angle to manage their transactions and supplies and it should have this innovation to have
the option to handle enormous measure of information without focusing on a great deal of
time managing this.
According to the Book of David J. Piasicki entitled " Inventory Management
Explained ", it says there that Inventory Management isn’t easy. If it were, more
companies would be good at it. But being competent at managing your inventory isn’t all
that difficult either. It just requires that you invest the time to develop an understanding
of factors that should be affecting your inventory management decisions. Then use this
understanding to start to put together calculations and decision logic you will use to
manage your inventory.
Explained. Calculations for forecasting, lot sizing, and safety stock are well
known to the inventory management community but are generally not understood to the
level necessary to effectively use them. This lack of understanding result in incomplete
calculations, incorrect inputs, flawed logic, or a fall-back to less effective, keep it simple
approach.
Inventory Management Explained helps readers build a solid understanding of the
key planning aspects of inventory management. It does this by clearly explaining what
inventory management is but then goes well beyond typical inventory management and
exposing the hidden flaws and limitations. It then builds on this by showing readers how
they can use their understanding of inventory management and their specific business
needs to modify these calculations or develop their own calculations to more effectively
manage their inventory. The readers can actually use what they’ve learned.
Motor shop businesses give us things of building and fixing motorcycle. With
numerous items they sell, they should handle a lot of information to have the option to
give the satisfaction with their clients. Mainly their Inventory system contains the data of
each item they sell, the records of clients who purchases from them, their providers and
also their staffs. This kind of ventures should adjust the advanced world and accepted the
innovation. This will build their benefits and will see the more prominent picture of
having modernized frameworks that will alter their outlook in the field of industry. This
will clearly make their lives simpler.
The researchers are conducting a study in JonJon Grasa Motor Shop. We chose
the JonJon Grasa Motor Shop for the reason that with their current system, they are
experiencing issues in certain spaces handling their transactions and managing different
works within their documents. Their current system can deal with storing the data yet
finding and arranging it is a certain issue. Due to lot of data and it is written in papers, it
might be hard to find it manually and it takes huge amount of time dealing with this.
oThe Motor shop's system can't deal with the significance of precision of enlightening
outcomes that ought to be accounted for in their clients and their providers. Keeping this
kind of the management may be terrible and can influence the image of the shop. The
owner even their staffs only rely on information that is written in some papers that is
being recorded in their inventory. This causes of information being delayed or unable to
comply within the given time. That's why we are conducting a study which can help them
to make all their transaction easy, faster and more managable.
Review of Related Studies
Sales and Inventory System
In accordance to the study of De Alday Espino Ragudo (2010), Computerized
Sales and Inventory system for Ramon Trading. The replacement of manual system with
the proposed system provided more efficient and accurate processing of the transaction.
The system is reliable, eliminates errors and inaccurate information, and provided
valuable reports with integrity.
In accordance to the study of Navarro (2012), Sales and Inventory System,
computer is general purpose device which can be programmed to carry out the finite set
arithmetic or local operation, the computer has a big role in our nation today because of
technology. Wherever you go, computer exists, especially in business it makes the
procedure easy and source by programming the manual system into a computerized
system. The role of technology in our life today has a big impact.
Sales and Inventory Monitoring System
According to Bianca, Demand Media (2011), Sales and Inventory Monitoring
System using this type of system, a company makes strategic business decision regarding
raw materials purchased, production scheduling pricing, and other decisions in the
supply, Sales and Inventory data enables the company to increases or decreases of
products in the factory so that the company won’t have too finished goods stored in its
warehouse.
Sales and inventory monitoring system collects data to aid in production
scheduling. For example, some system uses recent sales data to forecast how many of a
type product will be needed to meet consumer demand in the near future. This includes
monitoring the levels of a product at all location. A good example is global company with
customers around the world. The customer might live in Japan, but the system must
monitor if the warehouse in Canada have available product to ship to Japan. Other people
used computers in their daily living. Some use it for transactions; some people used it for
educational purposes and used it for data storage. Though it might sound unnecessary but
in case storing files and etc. With the help of computers, it simplifies the process of
storing and managing the file you need for future use and make finding file easier than
the manual process. Computerized Sales and Inventory System is a product of human
knowledge with the use of technology, so why not use technology as advantage and
benefit to ourselves.
This proposed system aims to lessen works and to resolve problems involving
strict and complex recording and calculations. Sales and Inventory system is important in
planning a small or big business transaction and to that business who don’t want to be
bankrupt and lost profits.
According to Janes (2011), computers are extremely reliable device and very
powerful calculators with some great accessories application like processing problem for
business activities, regardless of size, computers have three advantages over other type of
business equipment that process information because computer are faster, more accurate
and more economical. Through the guidance of Audra Bianca (2015), using this type of
system, a company makes strategic business decisions regarding purchased raw materials,
scheduling production, pricing, logistics and other decisions in the supply chain. Sales
and inventory enables the company data to increase or decrease production in the factory
so the company won’t have too many finished goods that stored in their inventory.
The system collects data to aid in production scheduling. For example, some
systems use recent sale data to forecast how many of a type product will be needed to
meet consumer demand in the near future. The monitoring includes the levels of the
product at all location. The system compares current inventory levels of product and
number for scheduled production with the amount needed and it determines if the level of
production must be changed or not, if changed is necessary, the system sends a message
to the master production scheduler to increase production. Also, the system slows down
the production if the products retail sales don’t meet the sales that the company wants to
reach.
Inventory Management System
According to Shanker (2013), the difference between manual and computerized
system is speed. The processed data can minimize errors and increases efficiency. The
data inputted can easily be summarized in just a few seconds. While the manual
computing with paper and pencil or ball penis cheaper than a computerized sales system,
which requires a machine and system software. Other expensed associated with computer
process include training and program maintenance.
According to Aberdeen Group (2012), companies are prioritizing supply
visibility, inventory optimization and supply chain analytics, and supply chain
outsourcing as ways to cut Supply Chain Management (SCM) cost this year.
Inventory System
According to the U.S. Small Business Administration (2010), inventory refers to
stocks of anything necessary to do. The U.S. Small Business Administration describes
what constitutes successful inventory management balancing cost benefits of inventory,
including sustaining a wide collection without spreading the rapidly moving items too
thin, increasing inventory without sacrificing service, keeping stock low without
sacrificing performance, obtaining lower price by making purchases volume, Maintaining
an adequate inventory without an excess of obsolete items.
From the work of Jonas Claymore (2012), the cost-effective and highly innovative
inventory management system gives you instant access to stock levels, allows timely
orders and zero waste of time. Get real-time reports what the inventory system does is to
allow you purchase supplies based on the most current order data record. This minimizes
overstocking and at the same time, frees up resources for more urgent needs. The
Inventory Ordering System gives you better control over your supply chain, affording
you the amenity of being capable to place orders online or via SMS. And because the
systems automatically produce inventory and sales reports, your workers will have less
paperwork to file and more time to focus on operations. For superlative businesses with
franchise activities, this user-friendly inventory management system can be customized
for any multi-site such as company, commissary, or warehouse backend.

Significance of The Study
An effective inventory management system is the cornerstone of successful
eCommerce. With a strategic plan in place that optimizes the process of overseeing and
managing inventory, including real-time data of inventory conditions and levels,
companies or Shop like JonJon Grasa Motor Shop can achieve inventory management
benefits that include:
-Accurate Order Fulfillment
-Better Inventory Planning and Ordering
-Increased Consumer Satisfaction
-Improved Accuracy of Inventory Orders
-Increased Efficiency and Productivity
-Save Time and Money
-Repeat Customers
It’s difficult to gauge which products are needed if there isn’t a clear way to tell
what products are already stocked. If the owner doesn’t properly manage the inventory
they already have, they can easily overstock items, and some of these items might not be
strong sellers. Detailed inventory management mitigates these issues, allowing them to
refresh inventory only when needed. It’s both space and cost-effective.
Customers that shop online are eagerly awaiting their orders, and there’s nothing
worse than when their orders arrive not-as-described, late or damaged. When that
happens, buyers are less likely to purchase from the brand again. On the other hand, good
inventory management leads to orders being fulfilled more quickly and shipped out to
customers faster. Accuracy of product orders, status, and tracking are critical to good
inventory management. An effective fulfillment partner will have real-time software and
systems in place to make sure no product is left untracked throughout the fulfillment
process.
A good inventory management strategy leads to an organized fulfillment center. It
results in more efficient present and future fulfillment plans. This also includes cost-
savings and improved product fulfillment for businesses utilizing the warehouse for
managing inventory. With proper inventory management in place, less time and resources
are spent invested in managing inventory and can be allocated to other areas. Technology
is often used to speed up tracking and fulfillment operations, ensuring inventory records
are accurate.
Due to improved ordering accuracy, efficiency, and product flow, good inventory
management results in saved time and money. Effective inventory management and
control protects from incorrect or damaged goods being shipped to customers. This helps
improve customer experience, protect from issues such as refunds, and achieve more
repeat buyers.
