IMS Productions' Inventory Management System

Abstract

The state of today's economy is wrought with losses and harsh cuts in nearly all aspects of life. While the blame for this downward trend can be placed on uncontrollable facets of economics, it can also be placed on controllable facets of human error. For years, the mobile group of Indianapolis Motor Speedway Productions (IMS Productions) has endured tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars in losses every year due to employee forgetfulness and negligence. Equipment is left behind, hundreds of feet of cable remain lying on the ground, and money continues to drain out of funds in order to replace these items. Accountability and maintainability of proper equipment inventories is essential to bring about the stoppage of monetary losses due to forgotten equipment. Utilizing Microsoft's C# programming language, Visual Studio programming suite, and SQLExpress database system, this project will create a working and functional piece of software to be used as IMS Productions' inventory management system to aid them in mitigating and stopping future losses due to equipment negligence.Honors CollegeThesis (B.?.
