DESIGN
AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A BILL OF MATERIALS PROCESSING SYSTEM
(A
CASE STUDY OF EMENITE NIG. LTD. EMENE, ENUGU)
ABSTRACT
With the trend of
technology growth in the world of today, virtually every facet of human work
has been affected; even the remotest of it all, and the production circle
cannot be left out. This study was carried out to verify all the manual
processes involved in bill-of-material processing system and to seek a way of
automating the system for effective operations.
Since there is
continuous moves towards technological advances that enhanced productivity of
labour and free human beings of tasks done more economically by machines.
Computer and its applications have become indispensable and vital tools in
economic, industrial and social development of the advanced countries of the
world. Nigeria as a developing country cannot afford to lag too far
behind in this kind of revolution. Therefore there is every need to know
in every discipline the areas, which attracts computerization and why they need
it.
In this project, the
software engineering principles were applied in the analysis, coding and
testing of the software developed for the Bill-of-material processing.
Serious attention was also give to the design of the user interface.
In the development of
the software, visual basic programming language was used de to its support for
all the features desired. A brief user’s guide is also provided.
The end result is a software that is very effective and efficient in meeting it
objectives and at the same time user friendly.

INTRODUCTION
1.1
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The
use of traditional approach in problems solving has really left some loopholes
in life and this has encourage the introduction of computers in various fields
of work including production in terms of keeping of bill of materials in
production and most recently reordering of sales.
The
Bill-of-material processing system has been in existence in many organizations
though in a traditional approach. Introducing the computer system will
greatly improve materials requirement planning in the following aspects.
(a)
Reliability
(b)
Validity
(c)
Accuracy
(d)
Appropriate storage of data
(e)
Timeliness
The
above factors are due to the fact that the computer possesses some great
features, and advantages over traditional approach.
1.2
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEMS
No
doubt that the use of traditional system has created a lot of problems in
production of roofing sheets at EMENITE. The quantity and amount of
materials and sub-assembly needed to produce a product cannot be traceable
because of glaring disadvantages stated below.
Ø
Poor information storage method: The use of office files and file cabinets is
not a good form of information storage.
Ø
Insecurity of data because it is prone to vandalization and unauthroised
accessibility
Ø
Duplication of data in various departments because of the nature of work needed
It
takes a long time in accessing records in the manual system (filing system) due
to the nature of the job. It is not always good for materials to finish
unnoticed, so the re-ordering of materials are not made as and when due.
The introduction of
the computer system will help eliminate these problems to an extent.
1.3
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
This
project is generally towards eradication of all the deformities and curb
hookups of the manual method of bill-of-materials processing, thus developing a
new system to handle the jobs involved in the processing of Bill-of-material
electronically.
1.4
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
In
an organization whether manufacturing or not manufacturing where the
competitors and the objectives of the organization are at the top of the scale
of preference especially the meeting of the standard in the market, there is
always a focus on the organizational goal which might not be the goals of the
sub-system to avoid sub-optimality, working towards a divisional or individual
benefits.
The
aims of this work include the following;
(1)
To work towards the elimination of ineffective modes of operation; it centers
on the user having a good atmosphere for work thereby minimizing stress.
(2)
The objective from the initiator of the proposal is generally towards combating
al the aims and the problems being discovered on the existing system, which are
listed under problem of study.
(3)
Safeguarding of information through effective monitoring of access is the
filing system (database).
(4)
Knowing when materials are almost out of stock, in order to make an order so as
not to show the production pace of the labourers.
1.5
SCOPE OF STUDY
The
scope of this project work covers all the areas of bill-of-materials processing
systems, which include the cost of individual material responsible for
production, the stock control or inventory areas, and every other necessary
areas. The storage of records, which have different fields that could be
expanded a little to form files. These file five rooms for editing,
updating and retrieval of information when needed. Some of these fields
are item description, quality, total requirement, re-ordering point, labour
cost, overhead cost, profit, lower cost, etc.
This
project is focused on the entire information recorded on Bill-of-material
processing for EMENITE NIGERIA LIMITED, EMENE, ENUGU STATE.
