IMPLEMENTATION OF A COMPUTERIZED CARGO TRANSPORTATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
(A CASE STUDY OF
SUPER MARITIME SHIPPING AGENCY, LAGOS)
ABSTRACT
This
project was out of the necessity to address the inherent problems encountered
by members of staff of super maritime shipping Agency and their customers.
The manual process involved in the management of cargo were critical examined
and the flows noted. The software so designed offers to a great extent,
the solutions to these problems. The project went further to ret the
different techniques used in implementing the newly design software in order to
facilitate a broader understanding of the design software by any user.

INTRODUCTION
1.1
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The management of
Cargo in Nigeria has over the years attracted poor patronage as a result of errors
inherent in the system. It is no longer a new thing that loss of
customers’ goods is now the order of the day, the reasons are not
far-fetched. Due to this manual procedure involved in Cargo management,
clients have no other option than to be at the mercy of these error prone
procedures.
Members
of staff of supper maritime one to the registered shipping agencies and a
subsidiary of Nigerian ports plc cannot provide their goods that is the nature
of the method used in calculating the tonnage to know the amount of money to
pay as cargo fees.
The
method of information storage in the company is poor. This limits the
number of official documents accessible by the customers because the system is
not capable of managing old items of information which could be of use to be
customer of anytime.
There
is little or no security control system where the customers’ goods, document
and classified information of the customer could be safe guarded from
unauthorized access.
1.2
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
The loopholes
existing in the management of cargo under the suspicious of Nigerian ports plc
and super maritime and the subsequent solutions to these existing problems were
the driving force in undertaken this project or study.
1.3
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
The aims and
objectives of this study is to design and implement a computerized cargo
transportation management system that will among other thing, make provision
for a detailed breakdown of the customers weight of the goods / Cargo, quick
retrieval and display of information pertaining to the client.
Provisions
is also made to check fraud and other criminal acts carried out by both parties
involved in the transaction and this lead to security and control. Also
another aim of this study is to provide a system that will manage the
customer’s document from the port of loading to the port of discharge with his
on ground there will be no conflict between the port of loading and port of
discharge.
1.4
ASSUMPTIONS
It is assumed that
the new system will do the following:
a.
the new system will create room for the client to know all th necessary facts
about the vessel, mat is, the name of the vessel, the Nationality of the vessel
and the voyage number with in the he shortest possible time so that transactions
will be an easy task for the two parties involved.
b.
The know the actual port of discharge and port of loading so that the two ports
will create no conflict or confusion for the client as regard the documents to
be signed and counter signed by the client. For example, the bill of
loading.
c.
The new system will create an avenue where by the measurement and Gross weight
of the cargo will be known and the commensurate fees to be paid.
d.
The new system will also make all the on-line operations carried out in cargo
management in supper maritime and Nigerian ports plc an easy task for official
and staff of both establishment.
