Abstract:
This project proposes a new way of managing inventory in small businesses. Typical systems are outdated and inefficient, relying on store managers to manually track inventory levels and send updates to the corporate office on a weekly basis. This means that the corporate office does not have up-to-date information on inventory levels, leading to problems such as stock-outs and overstocks.The new system will be a cloud-based inventory management system. This will allow all stores to access the same real-time inventory data. Store managers will still be able to track inventory levels and create purchase orders, but they will no longer need to send this information to the corporate office. The corporate office will be able to view inventory levels and place orders directly from the cloud-based system.The new system would also make it easier to move items from one store to another. Currently, there is no established process for doing this. The new system will allow store managers to easily request and approve stock transfers between stores.Overall, the new system will be a more efficient and effective way to manage inventory for small businesses. It will provide the corporate office with up-to-date inventory information and facilitate the transfer of items between stores.
