ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study is to computerize the
warehousing information system (A case study of NPA – Lagos) and to develop a
computer package, whereby the techniques observed from the manual method can be
improved upon. It is a known fact that
the manual method of warehousing information system has been associated with lots
of inaccuracy in warehousing information system. This has led to some set back that has cost
some obstruction on some parts, when in service.
The software, when developed will facilitate and
enhance the more and methods of warehousing information system which enables
accuracy and also saves time when services and rendered.
There is no intention here, to treat modules
separately, hence the entire project is menu driven, to cover most of the
facilities present.
Lastly, it is optimistic that at the end of going
through the work, one should be able to;
1.
Have a clear
idea of the project
2.
Improve it to
suit other organization with regard to other sources and problems.
3.
Know what it
achieves.

INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND
OF THE STUDY
Warehouse is where goods and commodities are kept for
further clearance. Narrowing it to
Nigeria Ports Authority, there are many warehouse where imported consignment
and goods are stored. This is cleared by
carrying the billing papers from post to post, waiting and wasting much time in
seeing who is in charge. Goods that
takes about two weeks to berth into the country takes another two weeks to get
cleared. This makes the importers and
the clearing agents to run from port to port, in search of where the goods were
kept.
The introduction of computer in warehousing will enable
importers know which and where their goods are kept, as it will always be
stipulates on the bill of laden papers.
Computer is hereby seen as a way of handling, by systematically organizing
them, recording or making notations on them, following up with the appropriate
action or the like.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLE
The processing of billing papers for clearance of goods,
with manual method has led to omission of many records that ought to be
included. This is caused by inaccuracy
of the manual billing process.
Due to the
inefficiency in manual billing process, billing papers are carried from post to
post, waiting for who is in charge, thereby delaying the goods that suppose to
be delivered.
More so,
goods are not delivered on time, due to the fact, that goods that takes about
two weeks to get into the country, still takes another two weeks to be cleared.
1.3 PURPOSE OF STUDY
The purpose of this is study is to
1.
Identify those problems caused by using manual billing
clearance
2.
Finding out the effect of this in Nigeria Ports
Authority
3.
Create computer awareness
4.
Identify prospects for solution of problems.
1.4
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
This research, base on the problem and prospect of using
computer in Nigeria Ports Authority, will help to develop interest towards
computer.
The
findings of this research, will also help the management to increase the income
generation of Nigeria Ports Authority and smooth running of the warehouse in
general.
1.5 SCOPE OF
THE STUDY
The researcher will identify all the problems, including
the financial constraints of the problems, encounter with the use of manual
billing clearance in warehousing.
1.6 LIMITATIONS
OF THE STUDY
Due to the financial constraints of the researcher and
lack of time, the researcher is concentrating the study in only Nigeria Ports
Authority Lagos.
