Project Summation
The Byrd Limousine Company is an organization that has provided specialized limousine services to Southern California clients for over two decades. BL is owned and operated by Shelonda Byrd Hale, and has seven full time drivers, five male and two female. The company caters to individuals who want stylish or specialized transportation using a driver and a larger, more luxurious automobile. The market that provides these types of services is very competitive and continues to evolve as new models of limousines become available. At present, Byrd Limousine processes data for clients, services, and internal information manually. The enclosed Proposal of Transaction Processing Systems will allow BL to use a more automated, and streamlined, way to keep track of their daily organizational activities.
Problem
The current manual system used by BL is inadequate because it is time consuming, inefficient, and modeled by needing manual (slow) input from staff. The processing of data manually often leads to human errors that continue to reduce profit. Thus, there is a need to increase the quality within the organization. The Transaction Processing System offers several benefits to BL:
Less time consuming
Improved accuracy
Provides more data to management
Allows for a competitive edge within the limousine market (Byrd Limousine, 2012)
Benefits to the Organization
The proposed transaction processing system will be used to keep all the transaction within the organization such as sales records, receipts, cash deposits, payroll, credit transactions, and marketing expenses. This will drastically improve the functionality and streamline the business, improve the relationship between the business and customers (effeciencey), reduce human error, and generate needed information functionality automatically. Benefits include:
Reduction of human error
Imrpove effeciency and thus relations between BL and its client base
Generate needed functionality automatically
Maintain and exceed the demands of the industry
Give the company a competitive edge by increasing the professional look and feel of the organization
This improved information system will automate...
