Inventory System Upgrade
The project aims to develop a system whereby inventory maintenance would become easier, efficient and less time-consuming. This proposal includes a change in management practices, use of advanced technology and a system that would ensure minimum deterioration of facilities. Four school administrators will take part in the implementation of this plan. Out of them, the most experienced one is selected as project leader because only implementation and planning can be best handled by one specialist. "Whether an administrator or project management specialist, a single individual should provide the project leadership necessary to effectively manage the time, cost and quality of a project from inception to completion." (Gaydon, 2002)
Needs Assessment careful analysis and examination of school facilities reveal that inventory system needs to be completely revamped in order to avoid extra costs that are incurred every year on unexpected wear and tear of school facilities. It has been noticed that the main reason why school facilities have been deteriorating at a faster rate is the lack of supervision and faulty...
A new plan is therefore required in order to revamp inventory system and make it more efficient.
The inventory system in a school is responsible for keeping a record of the facilities inventory including building, labs, furniture, fixtures and all equipment and utilities. Without a proper plan for the maintenance of this record, administrators may overlook deteriorating facilities and this result in sudden breakdown of important facilities resulting in major overheads and unexpected costs. Any school would want to avoid this extra expenditure as it placed enormous burden on school funds, which could otherwise be used for other important purposes.
4. Project Objectives
Since this plan is extremely important to minimize deterioration and make inventory assessment and management process more efficient, its objectives should also be studied carefully. These objectives are:
Inventory assessment on regular basis
More efficient and accurate assessment of the exact condition of facilities
An estimate of costs to be incurred on annual or bi-annual…

Secured real time protocol (SRTP) is also being identified to enhance the security parameter of WAN and LAN network elements. "SRTP provides protection with encryption keys for wired and wireless networks including bandwidth limited channels." (Guillen and Chacon 2009 P. 690). There is also a growing use of IP secure to protect organization from the interception of data over the LAN and WAN environment. To enhance network security, Chen, Horng,
Capital Budgeting The aim of hospitals is to measure and improve the quality of health care service for the patients. Patient satisfaction is the foremost concern. However, to run a hospital, there are a lot of other factors are also involved; e.g. managing cost, budgeting, optimizing operations and increase patient satisfaction level. In order to achieve the desired level of performance, the hospital needs to be up-to-date with the latest technology. In
It was then important to see the degree at which technology and training played a role in combating each fire. 1.2.4.Rationale of the Study What is that can be gained from this study? The reasoning behind such a study is born out of a need to provide better training for fire fighters so that fire management systems will improve and reduce the amount of loss due to the fire. By studying
