2.3.7. Lamparter (2011)

Said that today, the first inter -organizational tracking & tracing systems facilitate timely identification and handling of disruptions along the supply chain. However, these systems typically operate at SCM and ERP level and therefore lack knowledge and control over production  processes. This paper bridges the gap between logistics and production IT  by proposing a novel architecture for coupling the manufacturing operations as defined in IEC 62264 with an EPCIS-compliant real time tracking & tracing system. The system leverages logic-based complex event processing for detecting critical disruptions in the supply chain and initiates rescheduling of production. It is shown that in the presence of unexpected events the rescheduling algorithm minimizes delays and inventory costs while avoiding “nervous schedules” caused by frequent changes. As proof of concept a reference implementation of the architecture is realized within a discrete production line. 2.3.8. Catalogue Horse21. (20l3)

CHAPTER 3 METHODOLOGY AND DESIGN 3.1 Organizational Assessment

In the year 2003, the institution gave high priority to the need to offer hospitality courses. In the same year, Systems Plus College Foundation answered this necessity by establishing a College that catered various discipline in the field of hospitality. Thus, this realization paved the way to the inception of the College of Hospitality Management.

The first two programs, Bachelor of Science in Hotel and Restaurant Management (BSHRM) and Bachelor of Science in Tourism (BST), Opening its doors to these  pioneering students marked its first year as a novel College of the institution.

Since then, SPCF and the College of Hospitality Management (CHM) braved itself to be one of the Higher Learning Institutions (HEI) in Pampanga that produces highly qualified graduates in the field of hospitality management.

The study focuses on managing the hotel reservation process that will allow the user to check available rooms in the hotel, manage reservations and book a hotel room online. The Centralized Billing Module, a system that computes all of the purchases made by the guest/guests in the hotel. Because it is developed for the hotel reservation, they can control all of the expenses made by the customer within the hotel, summarizes the bills and extra charges of the guest and also they can view the status of every hotel rooms.

3.1.1

Operational Feasibility

The researchers have observed problems in the processes of making a hotel room reservation. The problem that the staff and customers encountered was the unmanaged customer database, manual registration when making a reservation and it will be a waste of time for the customers going to the hotel and knowing that there are no available room to reserve. That is why the researchers have come up with a module for the study which allows: 

The hotel admin to manage customer database, maintenance, announcements and services offered.



The front desk officers to view the status of every hotel rooms, manage reservations quickly and manage every requests and needs of a customer.



The customers to easily check online for available rooms to book.

3.1.2

Technical Feasibility

The proposed system is a web and mobile based system which gives the user ease of use. The only main requirement in order to run the system is to have a stable and adequate Internet connection, a smartphone and a computer system. So when tested and implemented at the locale, the only things needed are a Page | 29

COLLEGE OF COMPUTING AND INFORMATION SCIENCES

Bachelor of Science in Information Technology

 personal computer, a smartphone and a stable Internet connection and network infrastructure which are all already present at the locale and would not be need to be purchased again. 3.1.3

Schedule Feasibility

In tackling the development of the system, the researchers decided to allot a certain amount of time to different tasks that need to be undergone in order for the successful development of the system. The allocated one (1) month for extensive data gathering in order to properly grasp the essence of the hotel reservation process. During the data gathering, prototypes of the system were conceptualized. 3.1.4

Economic Feasibility

Making a reservation in a hotel would be a lot easier due to the system. For example instead of going directly to the hotel the customer can check the website with their phone or in a computer to see if there are rooms available and what services do they offer. On the other hand the benefits of the research to the admin and the staff would be mainly non tangible. The benefits includes the increase in processes of making a hotel reservation, increase in online advertisement, generating the remaining and additional  balance of the customer and checking of the status of every room could be easier and faster to process. Through the system the admin and the staff would be working more efficiently. Page | 30
