Streamlining Solution for Procurement Management through Automation

Abstract

The study on Streamlining Solution for Procurement Management through Automation is developed to address the need for a reliable and secured information system for monitoring procurement processes and inventory of supplies and equipment. ASCOT practices the manual process of doing transactions resulting to problems such as slow processing, lack of inventory, poor monitoring, data inaccuracy, and issues on transparency. Thus, the objective of this study is to end the cycle of errors and delays in procurement processes, through the development of Procurement Monitoring System that automates the procurement transactions.To obtain the necessary data, the researcher conducted interviews to collect information needed in analysing the process and flow of transactions. The researcher used the developmental method of research in undertaking the study and used V-Model of the SDLC for the development of the system. To evaluate the acceptability of the system, the researcher used the questionnaire adapted from ISO 25010 Software Product Quality Standards. The evaluation shows an overall mean of 3.69 denoting that PMS was found conformed to the software quality requirements.The system has successfully reduce the time of operation and simplify complicated tasks in terms of recording supplies and monitoring transactions while the user can track every transaction movement.
