Design and Implementation of Inventory Management System in the Analytical Development Laboratory

Abstract

The importance of information technology in a company to support the running of business processes in the company effectively. With the existence of information technology, incoming and outgoing goods can be recorded properly so as to minimize the occurrence of stock outs of goods that are not regulated. Until now, the inventory system in companies, especially in the Analytical Development Laboratory, still uses a manual process, namely using a logbook, starting from usage, purchasing requests and stock-taking processes, which are still done manually. Data collection was carried out by means of observation, interviews, and field studies. The waterfall method used by the authors in this study uses the working principles of this method, namely from needs analysis, design, implementation, verification, and maintenance. The existence of this latest system will further accelerate the processing of raw material information and reduce stock outs at the Analytical Development Laboratory. This system is made using Microsoft Access applications from design to database
