| Tiivistelmä: | A twenty year old company that retails white water rafting equipment and supplies through direct mail marketing, developed information systems from hand-help paper orders. During the preliminary design stage several specific problem areas were identified. These include: excessive inventory levels; excessive back order levels; insufficient integration in existing inventory modules; too many manual steps and procedures in the overall inventory process; insufficient information being captured to drive a more complete system. The new system involves inventory control, purchasing and receiving, and interfaces with order entry and other sub-modules. Time savings and other benefits are reported. |
