Proposal For

IC System
An Inventory Management Application for
Manufacturing Industry

Project Scope: To design and develop an Inventory Management System incorporating invoicing feature and management control modules. Proposed Benefits: 1. Improved overall productivity 2. Improved logistical control hence reduced expenses in meeting customer demands and requirements 3. Improved delivery reliability and sup pliability. 4. Reduced waste of time, effort and space 5. Easy access to inventory database for multi-user profile 6. Audit trail generation Proposed Features/Modules: 1. Sales Force Automation: Sales Order Management Sales/Purchase History Mining Basic Sales Process Management My Account portal for customers Lost Sales Management 2. Inventory Management: Materials Definition Coded inventory line list Stock Days management Inventory Profitability Analysis Managing optimum stock levels Price List Maintain item locations Define inventory by item type, price group, location, cost, or lot Manage inventory by order method Perform inventory warehouse transfers Bill Of Material 3. Purchase Management: Processing Purchase Orders Instant stock level refresh Expected Deliveries Accrued Receipt Open Order Report Requisition Report 4. Production: Critical Materials in Process Committed Production Orders Material Lot Number Explosion Finished Goods Lot Number Explosion Finished Goods in Process 5. Financial Management: Invoicing/delivery note
Accounts Payables/Receivables

Proposed Time period: 10 12 weeks, subject to scope definition and in-process modifications/enhancements. Future Enhancements: Web Enabled interface Vendor Profile management Production modules-Process management, Raw material management etc. Accounting modulesCredit control, Accounts payables/receivables, aged analysis etc. Order management and fulfillment etc. Proposed Cost:

Package cost (approx.) Variable Cost Depends on the selective module modification, which is beyond the scope of the initial project. Cost analysis can be carried on determining the scope of work involved. Payment terms: 50% signing amount

25% 1st installment on pilot run

25% final on completion

Response to requirements: For detailed project plan (if other than that stated above), please furnish: 1. Technical Specifications a. Preferred Operating system. b. Preferred database backend. c. Preferred output devices printers 2. Usage a. No. of users b. Technical Level of users(so that help functions can be made accordingly) c. Connectivity 3. Module testing parametersa. Propose a personnel who can test & validate modules b. Time period between test & validations Project Estimation: 1. Using the information asked above, a complete estimate on time based on modules can be estimated. 2. Spread of application of the system can be estimated on pilot testing of each module. Risk and Exposures to Virus and infringement: 1. Pilot testing can determine the scope of the risk and exposure to unforeseen risks and flaws. Scope of Technical Support: 1. Warranty support for 6 months after final acceptance. 2. Thereafter, Maintenance Agreement can be drawn for future technical support. Framework of Detailed proposal: For detailed proposal/project specifications, below mentioned areas need to discussed and deliberated. 1. Time frame 2. Technical specifications 3. Module and Input (Data capture) frame specifications Conclusion: Drawing your attention on the scope and objective of the Project will be to your great benefit. The changing needs can be addressed on continuous review of the system. Any information required should be shared for mutual benefit. Disclaimers: 1.
