INTRODUCTION

1.1

Background of the Study

The internet has grown rapidly through the past few years from being an automated messaging tool to educational, communication and entertainment provider but now, the business industries were already been influenced by the internet. According to Vitez O. who wrote the article The Effect of the Internet on Modern Businesses & Corporations atiInformation technology has transformed the way companies conduct business. Technology allows businesses to automate manual operations and process information much faster. While business technology often is used through personal computers, server storage and point-of-sale or cash register systems, another major technological advancement is the Internet, which has created new communication forms and other business methods that companies use when processing financial and business information.

This system is a web based money remittance application that allows individuals who want to establish a startup money remittance business. It is a system that stores customer information and transaction history. Users have the ability to create accounts, add, edit and delete customer data and process transactions. The system can also calculate the money for transactions. The online money remittance system is designed to simplify managing the customer’s information in a more organized fashion, making the process easier and increase work efficiency. It is built to secure customer data and very easy to use.

1.1.1

General Objectives

The objective of this project is to create a website for the company of V8 iNet Café & Computer Services with the help of the knowledge that we learned in our programming subject. The aims of this study is to help increase the marketing sales of the said enterprise by giving the existing and potential clients a much easier access of information regarding to the products and services that the business can offer. 1.1.2

Specific Objectives      

1.2

To help expand the marketing strategy of the company. A well-organized content and user-friendly site to attract customers. Improve interaction with existing and potential customers. Up to date announcement from the company. Accurate list of information about the products and services of the company. Systemize order of data/files.

Significance of the Study

The importance of this study is to help the said company that we are currently working for to be recognize at the market industry by creating a website which will help their marketing promotion (advertisement). In addition, this project is made to significantly increase the sales of the business and also to attract potential customers. This study’s beneficiaries are the owner and the employees of the said company. It will be helpful for them to communicate and transact with the potential customers to help increase their marketing strategy. This project will also help the researchers in developing their knowledge in this kind of program and this will also serve as their final requirement for the said subject.

This study will also serve as a reference for the upcoming researchers in the near future to help improve their skills and understanding pertaining to a related project and programs. 1.3

Scope and Limitation

The study is focus on the web-based system development and it is planned to help increase the marketing sales of the said company by serving as a promotion tool for the enterprise’s advertisement. Since the project is a multi-user website the existing and potential clients of the company is permitted to open the program at any web browsers providing that internet connection is required. The researchers formulated the scope and limitations this project to identify the boundaries of this study.

of

The scopes of this project are: • The system displays all the necessary information regarding to the company’s products and services. • The system allows the customers to place orders on the site. • It has a capability to notify the administrator after a purchased order has been placed. • The system is a username and password protected

The limitations of this project are: • The system requires internet connection; else accessing to the system does not take place. • The clients are not capable to pay online. • Only the administrator is capable to edit or modify the data/ information on the site.

2.0 Methodology of the Study The researchers used the waterfall method so that our project will be specific the way that it has been plan and to make sure that it will meet the company’s needs and expectations. By using the waterfall method the researchers guarantee that the project system that has built is accurately as it should be, because of its systematic planning and development it has a scheduled deadlines for each stage of progress to meet the client’s expectations.

With the use of this method proper planning, design and organization are highly necessary because it has a specific detailed order of procedures in managing every aspect of the project from design and development to testing and implementation. The advantage of this model is that early design changes is allowed, the waterfall method lends itself well to alterations in the initial step of progression which is great for the researchers when fleshing out the required documents in the first couple stages, since alterations can be immediately done with minimal effort, as no coding or implementation has actually taken place up to that point.



Suited for Milestone-Focused Development: Due to the inherent linear structure of a waterfall project, such applications are always well-suited for organizations or teams that work well under a milestone- and date-focused paradigm. With clear, concrete, and well understood stages that everyone on the team can understand and prepare for, it is relatively simple to develop a time line for the entire process and assign particular markers and milestones for each stage and even completion. This isn’t to suggest software development isn’t often rife with delays (since it is), but waterfall is befitting the kind of project that needs deadlines. Using this method requires good planning and design and the developers need a clear and complete definition of the system before it can be broken down and built inclemently. However, it is easier to test and debug the system; customers can respond to any build and it is easier to manage risks. This model increases each time a new component is added on the design until the product is complete.

3.0 Data Gathering Procedures and Outputs Insufficient

data

and

lack

of

understanding

must

be

avoided. Requirement gathering should be clear to provide what a customer wants in a system. The system being developed must reach the customer’s expectations, the gathered data should be clarified to know what they have in mind. Acknowledging the requirements

of

the

business,

user

and

system

creates

a

successful project as it gives you a clear understanding on what is needed to be done.

User Observation This data gathering procedure involves the user to collect feedback on the system. Structured Observation is used where the gathered information are recorded in recording sheets, observation guide, checklist, field note, etc. Observation is a process where users are being observed by an analyst involving the user in the observation helps gather specific requirements that are needed. This method allows the analyst collect more information in a way that other procedures cannot, such as questionnaires and interviews. Since structured information requires direct information for a better understanding on how the user interacts with the system, including the process, behavior, event or situation.

4.0 Documenting the Current System This project aims to service the company of V8 iNet Café and computer services. Unfortunately, the said business has no existing or current system to develop. The researchers of this study used other websites from other companies to use as a reference in creating this project.
