A Project on Production Management System of Bangladesh Electrical Industries Limited (BEIL)

Abstract

This study has two approaches. One is to look at the industry in general and Transcom Electronics Limited (TEL), in particular. The other broad objective of the report is to analyze the Production Management System (PMS) of Bangladesh Electrical Industries Limited (BEIL) under Transcom Electronics Ltd. with related studies and to suggest some appropriate control procedures and recommendations from that perspective. The PMS database, developed in MS-Access is at the verge of completion in the Information System and Automation (ISA) department of Trancom Electronics Limited (TEL). Transcom Electronics Limited (TEL) is a private limited company incorporated in 1992 in Bangladesh under the Companies Act of 1913. TEL is the official licensee of PHILIPS Electronics N.

The company purchases and sells various consumer products especially relating to audio/video products, bulbs, tube lights, professional lights, domestic appliances, refrigerators etc. The company is managed professionally with high caliber professionals and industry experts. In recent years TRANSCOM has emerged as an increasingly significant media house in Bangladesh. The first part of the report informs about the organization's history, functions, products, markets, management, activities and company profiles. The second part of the report gives a broad analysis and the importance of Production Management System (PMS) database of BEIL under Transcom Electronics Limited and how effectively it qm be applied in the automation process related to the production management system. This section analyzed the previous system PICCOLO (Philips Industrial and Commercial Control for On-Line Operations) of the Transcom Electronics Limited and the current system PMS and described the conceptual differences of the two systems. The whole study has brought many perspectives of the system analysis and design and situations where design methodology shows the ultimate means to handle the complexity of the system.
