A CLOUD- BASED ENTERPRISE APPLICATION FOR COATING AND PLATING INDUSTRIAL TECHNOLOGY INCORPORATED WITH PRODUCT INVENTORY MANAGEMENT AND ANALYSIS

摘要

The advent of cloud-based technologies provides different enterprises with enhanced business flexibility at reduced cost. This paper presents a cloud-based application for real-time products monitoring and inventory analysis for metal plating and coating industry. The system helps the administrator and project manager on data analysis of products and inventory records to develop a strong marketing strategy and decision making. Thus, this work is essential for the evolution of metal plating and coating techniques, production planning, monitoring, and continuous improvement of the operation of metal plating and coating industry. Prior to the implementation of the system, interviews from key persons in the industry was conducted to clarify some procedures, or documents needed for the project. The system was evaluated utilizing ISO 9126 of software evaluation criterion namely: Functionality, Reliability, Usability, Efficiently, Maintainability and Portability. In general, the results showed that the system has adhered the international standards for software.
