Report title:

Name of the company:

1. Problematic situation:

Many years ago, I worked in a company related to buying and selling gold. This company was very
important in the Caucasia but it had serious problems because it did not have a strong administrative
organization, it did not have enough technology to systematize its buying and selling processes, so
everything was very delayed and this made the company lose reputation among its customers and it
was decided to close the company due to all the problems that occurred

2. What you had done to solve the situation:

Years later the company reopened but improving all its processes, since they hired my services as a
systems engineer and with my team we created software for accounting and the process of buying and
selling gold that improved administrative times. Today the company has recovered its good reputation
and has managed to consolidate with its clients.

3. Recommendations:

I have always thought that if the company had implemented a software for all its processes a long time
ago, they might not have had to close down and might have improved the buying and selling times since
a long time. Therefore, as a recommendation, it is important for companies to keep up with
technological advances that can help improve their processes, since this helps improve their reputation
and obtain more benefits from the agility generated by the systematization of administrative processes.
4. Conclusions:

Companies often make unnecessary mistakes because of cost savings, which can lead to losses in the
long run. One should not be afraid of technology and the systematization of administrative processes,
since technology is a useful tool for any company and it is worth making all kinds of investments that
improve the time to fulfill business commitments, because it is likely that if a company does not decide
to improve its administrative processes this will lead to the closure of the company and its bankruptcy.
