The document summarizes several related studies on inventory systems. A study at the University of Alberta implemented a computerized inventory system to track equipment across departments. A separate study in the Philippines automated an electronics company's inventory tracking to reduce time spent on reports and increase efficiency. Another local study designed a computerized sports equipment inventory system for a university to address issues with the manual system like time spent recording data and equipment record control. Maintaining proper inventory records through automated systems was found to improve operations.

The University of Alberta Facility Inventory System provides a computerized inventory

of equipment on campus for departmental, faculty and central administrative functions.

Facility Inventory System has the responsibility to ensure that all new equipment

acquisitions are inventoried. Initially, this involves scrutinizing all completed purchase orders,

followed by an Equipment Inventory staff member locating and tagging the equipment and

processing the information. Only Facility Inventory System has the ability to provide with the

complete task by using borrowing with lending system that elaborate the data user.1

The study of Automated Inventory System Using Portable Data Acquisition Module for

Bell Electronics Corporation conducted by Karen K. Jao, Monchie C. Dela Cruz, Zarina Ira V.

Bernabe presented a design of Automated Inventory System using Portable Data Acquisition

Module for Bell Electronics Corporation. The tests that have been conducted at Bell Electronics

Corporation lessen a significant amount of time dedicated in creating summary reports of

inventory along with the other related records. In addition, the company finds the proposed

system more effective in their inventory management not only because of the improved speed,

but also due to the increased of efficiency by reducing manual interventions. However, it is

recommended to automate other manual transactions in order to improve the productivity of the

company. Furthermore, to increase the storage capability of the portable data acquisition module

the researchers recommend incorporating EEPROMs to the microcontroller. Finally, it is

recommended to make the inventory system web-enable for easy access.2

Rechel Albina Raga and Erwin Abadies studied and designed a computerized sports

equipment inventory system for UEP Sports Director’s Office to solve the existing problem on

the manual inventory system of the sports equipment. As far as performance is concerned, the

researchers found that the old process (manual inventory) required more time to record data, and

there were problems on control and security of the equipment records. The researchers proposed

a system that will make time shorter and help the workers do their duties easier and more

effective. This proposed system was expected to lessen the burden of the staff as well as the

students/ coaches/ athletes of this institutions.3

In the study conducted by Ariel Magat (2002), he stated that inventory system is vital to

any institution, agency, or department. The proper safekeeping, processing and disposal of

records plays important roles in the efficient, effective and smooth operation that eventually

would lead to the successful attainment of the goal and objectives of institution, agency and

departments concerned.4
