ABSTRACT

The appropriate functioning of distribution center processes is fundamental for operational
improvement and overall logistic supply chain improvement. Order picking is considered one of the
most important from the group. All through picking orders in warehouse, the presence of human work
is profoundly reacted, with the main goal to reduce the process time as much as possible without any
error, that is to the exceptionally least. There are a few different request picking techniques, and these
days, the most widely recognized ones are being created and are signicantly subject to the kind of
products, the warehouse equipment. When there is a wrong item or quantities are picked, time is wasted
at the pack bench where the error is noticed. If the fault is not realized, the wrong items are dispatched
which will require a discount or substitution. As well as costing money, it is awful for the image of
company. While calculating the expense of a miss shipment, remember to consider transporting costs,
returns costs, work time to repick, customer service work, and time spent rectifying bad online reviews.
In the first part, results will show that the performance of the ‘Quick Quantity Checker’ is much better
than the manual process which in human in counting the amount of the items in all the situations, and
it is decrease in the number of short supply error that happens in company. It is also will prove that
using a device method, the time of recounting the is reduced. While in the second part, the correlation
study will show that all the factors have a strong relationship with modern technology with device,
which almost everyone are used to it and well known to use it.

ABSTRACT

In this paper, a staff tracking monitoring system using the web-based operating system was developed.
All the activities of the staff will be monitored using this technique. In this system, scheduling, time-
off status, information and staff on leave are often considered part of staff tracking; this information
will enable director and assistant director to know when staff are expected to be in the office, other
work areas or on leave. This system is very helpful for director to manager their staff through Staff
Tracking Monitoring System (STIMOS). It is implemented using the Google Data Studio and the data
was stored in Google Sheet. The staff data was collected using document analysis and field methods
such as Likert Scale. Therefore, application of relevant analytical methods like charts was used to
interpret the facts collected. This system provides increased productivity, reduction of cost, easy access
and instant access to the staff record.

Keywords: Staff Tracking Monitoring System, Staff, Director, Web-Based Operating System

1.0 Introduction

In recent years, web-based are being used greatly and new technologies emerge from time to time to
meet the demands of users. In this project the web-based platform will be used as it is an open source
which is gaining ground in today’s market rapidly and is widely accepted and easily accessible in
today’s market. The Staff Tracking Monitoring System (STIMOS) is an application which is used the
data web-based system. The purpose of this proposed system is to help the manager or supervisors keep
track of its staff activities and program from time to time by monitoring his/her activities include
holidays, meeting and leave the office during office hour. The application is installed on the staff’
desktop and information of the staff activities will be sent to the staff through emails to the manager or
assistant manager after monitoring the staffs’ activities. This application will ensure that the manager
will be constantly updated of the dealings of it staff from time to time because the success of an
organization depends on the performance of its staff. This will ensure quality of service, detect misuse
of staff activities include the meeting, course and also programs with the students.

2.0 Statement of Problem

In recent times, staff across the globe, in order increase efficiency, redundant activities, measure
productivity and decrease risk. This is due to the fact that manager in these institutions many a times
waste way work hours by means redundant activities, confused the schedule, and a few staff that late
comings the unproductive behaviours and ways using workplace resources for personal and other
unjustified purposes. This is due to the fact that, manager in these institutions many a times waste way
work hour, by means redundant activities and meetings, late comings, the unproductive behaviours and
ways using workplace resources for personal and other unjustified purposes.

The cases of exploring internet data and communition between staff, so the need to define a novel
method by which managers can have a staff activity there by promoting efficiency and excellent
services. The implication of this is a motivation for this project, which designs a system for managing
staff activities from resumption to close of work with a finger print access for each manager record.

3.0 Objective

Thus, the aim of this study is to design and develop a unique and novel management strategy known as
Staff Tracking Monitoring System (STIMOS) which is expected to train and access staff’s work smart
and effectively.

4.0 System Design

The design and implementation of the Staff Tracking Monitoring System (STIMOS) adhere to the rules
of software requirements analysis which is regarding to the ADDIE model; Analysis, Design,
Development, Implementation and Evaluation as shown in Table 1.0:

Staff Tracking Monitoring System (STIMOS) Strategies

The Staff Tracking Monitoring System (STIMOS) is a web-based application which will monitor all
the activities, meeting and also staff on leaves; The STIMOS instructional design has been developed
according to the constructivist instructional design theories and constructivist instructional development
model. The constructivist instructional design theories composed of two subcategories that are macro
strategies and micro strategies. The macro strategies were based on the instructional goal theory (Gagne
& Merrill, 1990)

The micro strategies were based on the cognitive theory of multimedia learning (Mayer, 2002) and
theory of principles design of instructional multimedia (Mayer, 2002). While the constructivist
instructional development model applies the reflective, recursive, design and development (R2D2)
model (Willis, 1995) and later revised in Willis and Wright (2000) which consists of two development
environment components which are the tools of design and the process of design.

4.1 Constructivist Instructional Design Theoretical Foundation

The design of STIMOS application follows the constructivist paradigm of instructional design which
proposed by Reigeluth (1999). According to Reigeluth (1999), learning-focused instructional design
theory must offer guidelines for the design of management environment that provide appropriate
combinations of challenge and guidance, empowerment and support, self-direction and structure which
is a process in helping the learners to build their own knowledge. It composed of two subcategories that
are macro strategies and micro strategies. The macro strategies concern with the selection, sequence,
and organisation of the subject-matter topics that are to be presented (Gibbons, Fairweather, Anderson,
& Merrill, 1997). While micro strategies concern with the individual displays, including their
characteristics, interrelationships and sequence that are to be presented to the learner which also known
as presentation strategies. These strategies are consistent with the constructivist approach which was
adopted in the macro strategies.

Macro Strategies The first macro strategy in selecting, sequencing and organizing the subject-matter
topics was based on the Gagne and Merrill (1990) which focus on the integrative instructional goal
which is known as enterprise. The enterprise is referring to a purposive activity that may depend for its
execution on some combination of verbal information, intellectual skills and cognitive strategies (Gagne
& Wager, 1992).

The instructional activities to support problem context are through modelling, the problem
representation through coaching and the problem manipulation space is through scaffolding. Modelling
strategy focus on the expert’s performance where it provides an example of the desired performance for
an activity. The modelling in constructivist learning environments are behavioural modelling and
cognitive modelling. Behavioural modelling demonstrates how to perform the activities while cognitive
modelling articulates the reasoning that learners should use. Coaching strategy focus in coaching
learners to improve their performance while learning by motivating, analyse their performance,
provided feedback and advice on what was learned. Scaffolding strategy focus in guiding learners on
what to consider, how to think, how to utilize the available features in the learning environment and
how to analysing and approaching learning tasks or problem while learning which were classified as

456

PMJB NATIONAL INNOVATION & CREATIVITY COMPETITION 2022 l PNiCC’22

conceptual, metacognitive, procedural and strategic knowledge as proposed by Hannafin, Land, and
Oliver (1999).

Micro Strategies

The first micro strategy concern on the presentation strategy was based on the cognitive theory of
multimedia learning proposed by Mayer (2002) which based on the knowledge construction metaphor.
There are three fundamental assumptions underlying the theory which are dual channels which are:
a) visual or pictorial, and
b) auditory or verbal processing, limited capacity and active processing.

This theory assumes that human beings possess separate channels for processing visual and auditory
information. Second, human beings can receive limited in the amount of information that they can
process in each channel at one time. Lastly, human beings engage in active learning by coordinating set
of cognitive processes during learning. The second micro strategy concern on the seven principles for
the design of instructional multimedia messages also proposed by Mayer (2002) which consists of
multimedia principle, spatial contiguity principle, temporal contiguity principle, coherence principle,
modality principle, redundancy principle and individual differences principle.

According to Mayer (2002), multimedia principle describes that learners learn better from words and
pictures rather from words alone. Spatial contiguity principle describes that learners learn better when
corresponding words and pictures are presented near rather than far from each other. Temporal
contiguity principle describes that learners learn better when corresponding words and pictures are
presented simultaneously rather than successively.

6.0 Discussion
Maintaining a safe and efficient workplace requires organizations to keep a watchful eye on manager
activities which could pose harm to others or create liability for the company. One way for a company
to maintain efficiency and lower liability is for the manager to monitor its staff. Monitoring however is
only the first step. Managers must be educated about monitoring so that they can understand the lack of
privacy, times and manage that current style at work. This project has therefore presented a novel
approach to manager monitoring with the manage of the activities with used the system. In this study

458

PMJB NATIONAL INNOVATION & CREATIVITY COMPETITION 2022 l PNiCC’22

we have implemented the new generation manager monitoring system and system features to meet the
organization requirements. By using this STIMOS it is possible for the manager to track the staff
activities in the organization and calculate the behaviour of the staff.

1.0 Penyataan Masalah

Analisis penyata kewangan sesebuah organisasi merupakan elemen yang diambil berat oleh pihak
berkepentingan dalam menilai prestasi kewangan, pertumbuhan dan perancangan masa depan. Dalam
membuat analisis penyata kewangan (penyata pendapatan dan penyata kedudukan kewangan), salah
satu alat penting yang digunakan adalah nisbah kewangan. Nisbah boleh didefinisikan sebagai satu
pengiraan angka matematik yang merujuk kepada perhubungan bagi dua atau lebih angka dan
diterjemahkan dalam bentuk pecahan, peratusan dan berapa kali. Apabila sesuatu angka dikira
berdasarkan kepada dua angka yang diambil daripada penyata kewangan, ianya diistilahkan sebagai
nisbah kewangan (Ms. B. Kishori & Sija ,2018). Analisis nisbah kewangan merupakan kaedah yang
paling popular dan meluas digunakan sebab ianya boleh digunakan sebagai sumber data kepada model-
model matematik yang kompleks (Myšková, & Hájek, 2017). Menurut Fikri et.al (2019) kaedah analisis
nisbah kewangan dalam menilai prestasi organisasi masih terdapat isunya yang tersendiri di mana

460

Abstrak

Punch Set Number digunakan oleh pelajar Teknologi Pemesinan Industri(MPI), Kolej Vokasional
Sungai Buloh untuk membentuk nombor pada bahan kerja pelajar yang telah siap dihasilkan. Terdapat
beberapa masalah yang dihadapi semasa membentuk nombor di mana, nombor yang dibentuk menjadi
tidak rata dan tidak selari. Objektif kajian adalah untuk membangunkan Punch Set Number. Tujuan
projek ini dibangunkan ialah untuk menambah kesamarataan nombor ketika proses menebuk.
Penghasilan Punch Set Number ini dapat membentuk nombor pada bahan kerja pelajar agar menjadi
rata dan selari. Kaedah pengubahsuaian pada pemegang Punch Set sediada di pasaran telah
menghasilkan Punch Set Number di bengkel MPI. Kajian ini dilakukan terhad kepada saiz maksimum
bahan kerja 50mm x 50mm x 20mm. Bahan utama yang digunakan adalah jenis aluminium. Punch Set
Number ini dapat membantu menyelesaikan masalah pelajar MPI untuk membentuk nombor pada bahan
kerja pelajar. Selain itu, penggunaan Punch Set Number ini dapat mengurangkan ketidaksamarataan
huruf yang dibentuk dan pelajar MPI dapat menanda bahan kerja masing-masing dengan mudah.

1.0 Penyataan Masalah

Bengkel Pemesinan Industri (MPI), Kolej Vokasional Sungai Buloh adalah bengkel yang menjalankan
kerja-kerja pembuatan dan pengeluaran produk. Setiap produk yang dihasilkan oleh pelajar perlu
ditanda dengan nombor siri pendaftaran pelajar. Alat yang digunakan untuk membuat penandaan pada

464

PMJB NATIONAL INNOVATION & CREATIVITY COMPETITION 2022 l PNiCC’22

bahan kerja adalah Punch Set Number. Proses membentukan nombor pada asalnya dibuat secara manual
oleh pelajar tanpa menghiraukan ciri-ciri keselamatan. Alat sediada tidak mempunyai apa-apa
pemegang dan ia boleh menyebabkan kecederaan pada pelajar. Selain itu, apabila mengetuk nombor
pada bahan kerja, bahan kerja tidak diikat pada ragum.

(i) (ii)
Rajah 1(i) dan (ii): Contoh Punch Set Number Sediada
Seterusnya, semasa membentuk nombor pada bahan kerja, nombor akan menjadi tidak sekata
disebabkan bahan kerja tidak diikat. Hal ini disebabkan bahan kerja tidak dapat diletakkan pada
kedudukan yang stabil bagi menjalankan proses pembentukan nombor. Maka tercetus idea untuk
merekacipta pemegang pada Punch Set Number. Selain daripada itu, pemegang ini juga dapat
menambah kekemasan ketika membentuk nombor pada bahan kerja. Malah, cetakan nombor bahan
yang dibentuk akan dihasilkan dengan berkualiti dan kemas. Sekiranya produk yang dibangunkan
berkualiti dan kemas, maka produk akan dinilai dan mencapai standard yang dikehendaki.

ABSTRACT

Attendance taking is the most crucial task and the most labour-intensive activity before class or exam
starts in most educational institutions. Many students and lecturer have been dreaming of being able to
take attendance effortlessly, without having to make physical contact to pass on the attendance sheet as
it could cause the spreading of Covid-19. Existing technologies unable to make the labour safe and
cannot record the attendance as well as temperature for every scholar in the enormous hall. Therefore,
a modern innovative attendance application called FaceItIn is created for educational institutions in
order to replace physical labour besides helping to reduce Covid-19 cases. The team worked on Python
based face recognition temperature system by using software OpenCV and excel platform. This
technology is extremely useful since it can recognise every student’s face based on their existing data
in the system and change their data to “PRESENT” only when the student successfully makes an
appearance. Thus, Python programmed to detect the face and temperature which will lead direct to
attendance taking while recording the temperature of the students. However, if the thermometer detects
more than 37.5°C, the application, FaceItIn will notify the lecturer in charge to dismiss the student from
joining the lecture. In the meantime, the educational institution will be informed on the potential Covid-
19 patient remotely via IoT. To summarize, this FaceItIn application could recognize specific student
as well as checking their temperature automatically and simultaneously fill the attendance. Surely,
through FaceItIn apps, users can smoothly participate in the class without having too much time on
trivial undertaking and enjoy every class, convinced that their attendance has been taken effectively.

Keywords: FaceItIn Application, Covid-19, Attendance Record

PMJB NATIONAL INNOVATION & CREATIVITY COMPETITION 2022 l PNiCC’22

1.0 Problem Statement

The traditional approach of recording student attendance is frequently ineffective. By eliminating
traditional student attendance marking techniques such as calling student names or checking relevant
identity cards, the FaceItIn Apps emphasises its simplicity. They not only disrupt the teaching process,
but they also lead pupils towards becoming distracted throughout class and exam periods. During
lecture sessions, an attendance list is distributed around the classroom in addition to calling names. It
may be difficult to distribute the attendance list around a lecture class, especially one with a big number
of pupils. Thus, an application named FaceItIn is proposed to replace the time - consuming and
complicated signing of students' presence, which causes students to become distracted when signing for
their attendance. Furthermore, the automatic student attendance system based on face recognition is
capable of overcoming the problem of fraudulent approaches, and lecturers do not need to count the
number of students multiple times to confirm their presence. Furthermore, because no human
connection is required throughout the entire attendance procedure, the Covid-19 virus may be reduced
by implementing this method. In addition, every time attendance is taken, the temperature of each
student will be recorded as a safety precaution.

Zhao, W et al. (2003) proposed a paper that outlined the challenges of facial recognition. One of the
most difficult aspects of facial recognition is distinguishing between known and unknown photos.
Furthermore, Pooja G.R et al. (2010) discovered that the facial recognition student attendance system
training process is slow and time-consuming. Furthermore, according to Priyanka Wagh et al. (2015),
variable lighting and head positions are common issues that can decrease the efficacy of a facial
recognition-based student attendance system.

As a result, a real-time operational student attendance system with numerous defects must be renewed,
which implies the identification procedure must be completed within established time limitations to
avoid omission. The retrieved features from facial photos that identify the students' identities must
remain consistent when the background, illumination, stance, and expression vary. It is also necessary
to test the temperature taking device to ensure that it is functioning properly. The performance will be
judged based on its accuracy and speed of computation.

2.0 Objectives

1. Reducing the amount of time wasted during traditional class attendance.
2. Preventing fake roll calls by only allowing one attendance mark.
3. To keep track of the attendance and temperature of the designated student.

3.0 Product Description

The idea is predicated on the IoT (Internet of Things) concept, which involves using smart devices to
manage systems. IoT refers to a group of devices that are connected in a unique way in the existing
internet infrastructure and share information. It can be thought of as a neural system that connects
anything and everything. It is usually accomplished by the use of sophisticated sensors and chips
installed in physical objects for real-time data retrieval. The information gathered will be studied, and

472

PMJB NATIONAL INNOVATION & CREATIVITY COMPETITION 2022 l PNiCC’22

machines will make intelligent decisions without human interaction to either solve or improve the
current issue. In short, IoT technology improves the efficiency and intelligence of many existing
systems.

Essentially, an image acquisition process is carried out. To perform image processing computations,
live collected images are converted to digital data. Face detection algorithms are used to analyses the
collected photos. Face detection is used in face recognition systems to locate and extract face images.
These tests show that by using skin segmentation as a first step in face detection reduces the amount of
time it takes to search the entire image. When segmentation is used, only the segmented region is
searched, regardless of whether the segment contains any faces.

The facial recognition procedure starts with a camera, which may be installed on any device that can
communicate with it. This programmed can then search its stream for a potential face using computer
vision and a deep neural network. Once a face has been taken, the cropped image will be sent to the
back end via an HTTP form-data request. The API then saves this facial image on the local file system
as well as in the detection log, along with a person ID and their temperature. If there is an absentee
student or if a pupil's temperature is threatening to the entire class, the system will send a notification.

4.0 Product Impact

1. When the temperature is normal, the attendance will be taken automatically
2. When the temperature is quite high, it will produce a sound to warn the users.
3. This innovation can aid in reducing points of contact
4. With the existing of this product, it is everyone comfort of mind knowing they are safe

Innovation entails giving new solutions to clients that fulfil their needs in a more effective and efficient
way. One solution for manual attendance taking is 'FaceItIn.' The significance of this device is that it
can distinguish faces and human temperature with accuracy up to a third of a degree. When the
temperature is normal, the attendance will be taken automatically. Otherwise, when the temperature is
quite high, it will produce a sound to warn the users, and it will also inform specified staff members
and lecturers through email about the student's condition. The scholar needed to return home right
immediately. In the midst of a pandemic, this innovation can aid in reducing points of contact and hence
the spread of bacteria and viruses particularly COVID-19. While it is impossible to eradicate all germs
and viruses, one may take actions to greatly lower their numbers. This technology will save money,
time, and people's patience. All data is saved for evaluation, and it automatically creates a safe working,
living, or visiting environment for everyone. With the existing of this product, it is everyone comfort
of mind knowing they are safe and they will definitely be more productive without having to worry
about the person sitting next to them.

Abstract

In logistics, supply chains and networks span boundaries. Buyers and sellers, 3PL freight forwarders,
transporters, shipping lines, and airlines, as well as government and financial organizations, are all
engaged in the supply chain cycle. Smooth material flow necessitates the participation of all the
mentioned entities. 3PLs, logistics carriers, buyers, and suppliers must actively engage and provide
information and documentation to ensure smooth transit between transit points. It prioritises data and
documentation above physical goods. Computers are commonly used to save data from printed or
handwritten texts or images. Printed papers may be scanned and stored as image files on a computer.
Text from these picture files cannot be reused, so text from photos must be extracted and stored. EZ
Dox employs current technologies to boost efficiency, and automation necessitates tackling big
challenges. Recent issues include character fonts and picture quality. These flaws may cause computer
misreading. It decreases the employee burden by making it editable. After all, documentation is a major
concern in the logistics sector. So, by using new technology, the EZ Dox app will help the company run
more efficiently by managing documents faster.

Keywords: Information, Documentation, Efficiency, Logitics

1.0 Problem Statement

Yokogawa Analytical solutions Sdn Bhd use manual data entry method to process documentation that
depending on staff like invoice and packing list, bill of landing, orders and customs form that can lead
to unwanted operation mistakes which also time consuming and prone to human errors.

The issue occurs when employees discover that the file locker has extremely limited storage. This
happens when paper documents take up a significant amount of space, and the quantity of paper grows
by the day. Furthermore, papers should be placed near to hand so that they are accessible.

476

PMJB NATIONAL INNOVATION & CREATIVITY COMPETITION 2022 l PNiCC’22

Employees are having difficulty identifying certain documentation, such as logistic documents, among
the 30+ files that they have checked one by one. This is time-consuming because they have to spend an
unnecessary amount of time dealing with a paper filing system.

2.0 Objective of Project

I. To investigate whether the innovation can assist in reducing employee workload while also
converting to editable format.
II. To evaluate proper methods for data extraction while minimising post-processing and human errors.
III. To analyze operational efficiency in the company through the use of modern technology.

3.0 Scope of Project

This study can bring great impact, which allows the employee to perform text recognition and
conversion of digital images (scans and photos) and PDFs to text that can be edited, cited, searched,
and archived. The EZ Dox application is made up of several components that work together. Pattern
recognition, artificial intelligence, and machine vision are examples of these elements. The scope of the
project is to provide a service to convert smartphone scans and document images, as well as PDF files,
into searchable and editable formats. With the features provided, the staff can extract every piece of
information with just a click. This is because the application is as time-efficient and effective as it is
user-friendly.

As a result, the application enables the conversion to take place quickly. This will act as a catalyst in
assisting employees in performing their duties effectively because it is more convenient and relieves
the stress of piled-up paperwork, resulting in a happier working environment. Aside from that, issues
like human error can be easily avoided when manually typing out an article.

4.0 Impact of Using EZ DOX Application for Data Entry

With the rising number of virtual offices and mobile workers, mobile document management is more
crucial than ever. Technology has simplified organisational procedures and operations. Organizations
may utilise technology to save money and effort on data gathering and management. Organizations may
extract data from a variety of electronic or paper document types using high accuracy and cutting-edge
innovation. As the world moves toward digitalization, organisations across the world are using new
solutions in their workflows that may decrease human labour while also speeding up operations and
matching well with consumer expectations. Good decision-making relies on accurate, timely and
reliable information (Johansson, O., 2009).

Mobile abilities have significantly advanced since their inception. Viewing a document attached to an
email is no longer the limit of mobile document management. Individuals may now amend documents,
review and comment them, and electronically sign contracts in order to close agreements quickly.

477

PMJB NATIONAL INNOVATION & CREATIVITY COMPETITION 2022 l PNiCC’22
When dealing with urgent paperwork, effective mobile document management helps users to save time.
It can also read, evaluate, and submit papers swiftly without having to drive to the workplace, sit at the
desk, and wade through numerous physical documents and enormous virtual archives. Furthermore, it
can effortlessly interact, work, and do other tasks all at the same time. Implementing an application can
save organization in the term of money since automated document verification requires less labour,
therefore it saves money while delivering better services.

ABSTRACT

The purpose of this project is to develop a system that can provide improvements in Pos Logistics
Berhad and this project gives more priority to inventory clerk at the warehouse. Where the system can
make it easier for them to retrieve previous documents if needed. This project has produced an
alternative that is by using the QR Code pasted on each box that containing the previous document. The
problem faced is, that the inventory clerk has to retrieve old documents by having to open one by one
the boxes containing old documents, the large number of documents due to the large number of vendors
will complicate the process of retrieving old documents. Referring to the problem statement above,
usually files such as old delivery orders (Delivery Order) will be kept in the box and there are 10
different vendors. With this system, workers can find the necessary documents without having to open
the box one by one. For example, each box has a QR Code, where inventory clerk can continue to scan
the QR Code. Then employees will be able to see the list of vendors with the date needed that are in
each of the boxes through the system. Therefore, this ‘File Tracking System’ can make it easier for
inventory clerk to find the necessary documents that are intended for reference or the like. Not only
that, with the QR Code, it can help save employees time to find the old documents needed and it can
reduce employee stress more efficiently. As a result, this system is also able to increase the level of
employee productivity as well as able to raise the company's name.

Keywords: File Tracking, QR Code, Improvement of Company’s Performance

1.0 Problem Statement

One of the issues in today’s Pos Logistic, is finding old documents. This is because this warehouse has
more than 20 vendors and each vendor has its own documents, for example each vendor have document
outward and inward it will be quite difficult for staff to retrieve old documents when there is a problem
on the daily report and need to do reconsile. A lot of wasted time and energy is used to find documents.
Seeing this issue, we decided to create a file tracking system that would address all of these issues
properly.

480

PMJB NATIONAL INNOVATION & CREATIVITY COMPETITION 2022 l PNiCC’22

2.0 Objectives of Project
We proposed to review to availability literature on how to do this project.

i. To determine the problems faced by Post Logistics that will make it easier for staff to find
old documents without having to take a long time.

ii. To develop an alternative system which called the file tracking system that will make it
easier for staff to find old documents.

iii. To see the results after using the file tracking system.

3.0 Product Description
In this increasingly advanced age of technology, we have planned to develop an automated system or
alternative system to facilitate the retrieval of previous documents stored by the Pos Logistics Berhad.
The system that we mean it is the File Tracking System.
Developing that system is not just to keep up with the times but it also aims to provide convenience to
users without having to take a long time and avoid repeated work. For example, if previously the
employee had to open the box one by one at a time to see the contents of the box, whether the box it
has the document that they need or not, but not anymore if using file tracking system. system.
How to using this system is, inventory clerk only need to open the file tracking system application by
using a smart mobile phone and select the required documents such as outward documents or inward
documents and then scan the Qr code that has pasted on each box. After scanning, in the system will
display the date documents with the name of the vendor. The use of this system can only be used by
Pos Logistic because there is an ID and password and must be entered each time the beginning of use.

4.0 Product Impact
i. Save the time
ii. Improve the efficiency of storage.

iii. Improve the efficiency of retrieval old or new documents.
iv. Creating a comfortable work environment because employees don’t have to feel the pressure

of finding old documents because they have been using automated systems

Abstract

In order to move people and goods in a safe, efficient, convenient, and environmentally friendly manner,
transportation planning is essential. In planning transportation, the truck drivers are confronted problem
before they're making a delivery due to the fact the industry due manual to update the information of
transport to the driving force. It might be quite tough to truck driving force to invite operation group all
of the time approximately shipping statistics shipping area, actual or predicted time, loading and
discharge statistics and lots of extra. We create trucker equipment application, this device as the division
blanketed, inclusive of operation, which can inspire them in terms of giving delivery orders to drivers.
Typically, due to the use of this machine, conveyance orders may be handed directly to drivers extra
fast. This programmed has made it easier for two parties to collaborate on the delivery of items to
customers, reducing human effort. Because all of the delivery details are already in the app, operators
and truck drivers don't need to meet in person. We employed a quantitative research design to
investigate the 65 DHL global forwarding employees such as truckers, operations and haulage
departments using questionnaire. The findings revealed that this application can address the issue of
drivers as well as some related departments.

1.0 Problem Statement

There are some problems faced by DHL truck drivers before making a delivery. Because the industry
due manual updates the details of the delivery to the driver. It will be quite difficult for truck drivers to
ask the operation team all the time about delivery information delivery location, actual or estimated
time, loading and discharge information and many more. The truck drivers are still using hard copy
methods such as delivery order (DO), invoices, related forms of the delivery, and other documents of
the delivery from their operation or HOD. Moreover, the truck driver receives late delivery information.
It will be delays in delivery time order. In a pandemic session all companies must adopt the SOP
instructions given by the government but using the hard copy method is quite dangerous in physical
terms and a face-to-face meeting between the truck driver and the operation teams.

Abstract

Almost every organization provides logistics services, as well as a variety of items that must be
delivered on time. Other than a manual for updating transportation information to customer service and
operations, Kontena Nasional Global Logistics has evolved to become one of Malaysia's largest
integrated logistics service providers. The inability to provide transportation had a huge impact on the
whole operation. The objective of EASY4TRUCK application is to create an efficient and well-
organized application for obtaining detailed information on the difficulties that the operations
department is facing because of their inability to provide clients with more convenient and timely
transportation. These results show that the application will make it easier for customer service to take
orders directly from the organization. Operation workers can save time by reducing movement and
providing immediate transportation information directed by the company. It also increases the quality
of the operation department during the transportation procedure. In conclusion, the EASY4TRUCK was
created to facilitate obtaining information from operations easier for haulage users for all firm integrated
