Business industries encountered many problems in terms with their

business process. Jorona Aquatic Resources and International Trading,
Inc. is a company for marketing aquatic resources internationally and in
domestic place here in the Philippines. The said company encountered
difficulties in rendering quality service, making effective marketing
strategies, communication, and security. During the analysis made
by the proponents, they encountered issues that slow the processes of
business and impede possibly, the rapid growth of income. They found
that Integrated Sales and Inventory Management system solved the
current problems of the company. They discussed how much the system
cost, how it will work, what are the benefits that the company would get
if they will apply it and the impacts towards the employees. The project
was made for almost three semesters from second semester AY 2008-
2009 to 2009-2010. After all the tests and evaluations, as compared
to the manual system and other alternatives that the company used
to enhance the company’s business processes, the said system was
cheaper, faster, could lessen the human resource, effective, and efficient
way in gaining hefty profit. It reduced failure reporting and analysis,
and could provide timely and accurate reliability/quality reports. The
proponents highly recommended for the enhancement of the system to
include online payment, automate the delivery details and transaction
recording, and include computations in all accounting transactions.

I nventory systems play a vital role in a business setting because it lessens

the time and burden in performing inventory of products. They save
businesses from data inconsistencies and more importantly, prevent
profit loss. The job of monitoring and recording stocks is considered
to be a strenuous activity, by which computer and software come in

order to alleviate the work. With the advent of different computer

technologies, computer systems driven by human intervention speeds
up the process and increase efficiency. Since managing inventories
require up-to-date information of stocks status, an automated inventory
system has been developed for Blinque Tech Computer Sales. The
development of the information system was systematically performed
through the approaches offered by the utilized process model and was
tested through the test cases formulated. The research results show that
when coupled with effective monitoring and an alert feature, the SMS
technology, supply of products are in better control. Automatic and
immediate notifications will be sent to a user right after conditions are
satisfied with the rules specified in the system. This allows flexibility
in making decisions such as when to order products from the supplier.
It helps ensure the availability of an item just when a customer needs
it. This helps the management in being able to monitor products that
may be running out of stock and in the long run, helps prevent profit
loss. While inventory systems cover a huge function in businesses, it
is recommend that achieving improved security, optimum overall
system performance, as well as maximum use of the SMS technology
be considered.

T he study was about analyzing the current Information Technology

infrastructure of the University of the Immaculate Conception
Science Laboratory. It sought to find alternative solutions that would
allow the personnel and the student assistants to easily track the reports
and monitoring of the apparatuses. The proponents used the Spiral
model for the guidance on the approaches in carrying out the project
and will be developed according to the specific needs of the science
