7.1 Rationale/Background of the Study
This project highlights the challenges hospitals
face in managing medical supplies and the importance of
materials management in healthcare. It proposes the
implementation of an inventory system, utilizing
barcoding technology and business intelligence dashboards
to improve supply chain efficiency and patient care at
Baguio General Hospital Medical Center. By reviewing
related literature and evaluating the effectiveness of
the inventory system, this study aims to provide valuable
insights for hospitals seeking to enhance their materials
management processes and contribute to the achievement of
Sustainable Development Goal number three.
7.2 Summary
The main objective of the study is for the
researchers to design and develop a system that aids
users in the management of inventory within the Materials
Management Office (MMO) at Baguio General Hospital and
Medical Center(BGHMC).
, Abstract 4
Specifically, this study aimed to do the following:
1. identify the information requirements of the
mantra materials management system
2. determine the architecture framework of the
mantra materials management system
3. identify the features of the mantra materials
management system; and
4. measure the extent of usability of the mantra
materials management system.
The researchers have opted for Feature-Driven
Development (FDD), an Agile software development
methodology that prioritizes delivering functional
software increments consistently and collaboratively.
FDD's core focus is on providing concrete, operational
features through iterative cycles of development and
close collaboration with stakeholders. This approach
aligns well with Agile principles, emphasizing the
efficient delivery of valuable user features. FDD's
structured sequence of activities, including domain
walkthroughs, design, and construction, ensures the
creation of feature-rich increments that cater to user
needs.
Within the FDD framework, development teams identify and
prioritize features based on user requirements and business
goals. These features are then divided into manageable tasks
that undergo continuous development, testing, and integration.
By emphasizing valuable feature delivery, FDD ensures the
software's ongoing relevance and usefulness. The methodology's
emphasis on domain object modeling enhances communication
between developers and stakeholders, fostering mutual
understanding and a software solution aligned with operational
needs. FDD's modular approach accelerates development
iterations, allowing prompt adjustments to changing
requirements. In the context of healthcare, FDD emerges as a
valuable approach for creating a successful, user-centered
software solution.
7.3 Findings
Based on the objectives of the study, the
researchers came up with the following findings and
discussions:
1. The Mantra Materials Management System used for
Baguio General Hospital includes a broad range of
information needs integrated into its structure. Through
interviews and data collection at Baguio General
