About Us
As of now, the company is a small, private firm where everything is done by hand. This includes but is not limited to inventory, invoices, service orders, and customer and employee information. All necessary information and the company itself is essentially built off the cabinets of papers within the headquarters. Because time is such a precious thing and there are only so many people available on one shift who can locate the files, it greatly limits the amount of orders that can be placed and carried out within that period. The business has potential to be a lot more productive than it currently is but because of the inefficiency of this method keeping track of records, is not. Expansion was something that Papalia Landscaping had been looking into but found difficult to do because of the limitations of having to manually write down everything. Our database system will help compile all the information of this landscaping company into one easily accessible place. Changes to things usually took awhile to do as new documents would have to be printed and filled out and any big changes would require days days or even weeks to be processed because of the large amount of files that would have to be replaced. With this database system, any changes regardless of size or impact will be easy to do with a couple clicks of a button. Everything will be done in real time which helps all customers, employees, and the employer stay on the same page. Immediate printing of receipts and such can be done without worrying about having to write out the same thing twice. All of this serves to increase business value and help Papalia Landscaping to maximize its potential. It helps to improve efficiency, lower the amount of time lapse between processing, and can eventually decrease costs and increase revenue in the long run.
