Riordan Manufacturing Service RequestIntroductionRiordan Manufacturing Company, a maker of plastic products for several industries, is in need of modernizing its inventory management system. As such, Riordan executives have submitted a service request form to begin the process of creating a program that will serve the entire corporation. In order to integrate an inventory management program, the Information Technology department is going to have to research various commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) programs as well as investigate creating a program in-house to serve the company's specific needs.BackgroundCOO, Hugh McCauley, suggested having speci ...view middle of the document...
Statistical time division multiplexing (STDM), a system that transmits multiple varieties of data at the same time across one transmission cable (such as a T1 or T3 line is possibly the best answer for enhancement changes with Riordan. The STDM system is used to manage information transferred through a local area network (LAN) or a wide area network (WAN); this data is transferred in conjunction from various numbers of input devices that are attached to the network, and this includes computers, fax machines, or printers. STDM is similar to time division multiplexing (TDM) and at the same time monitor many users or input devices for transmission or receiving date simultaneously by directing each device in the same way for a required amount of time on one or more channels available on the line.Comparing TDM to STDM method would prove insufficient because STDM analyzes statistics referenced a typical workload of each individual input devices such as the computer, printer and fax and immediately discerns how much data is allowed for a specific cable or line. Worth Data offers integrated USB interface on all keyboard wedge readers; integrated and scanner models (LI50-WDP, LZ310-WDP) are available, and a separate decoder (P22 WDP). This would aid Riordan with inventory management issues with Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) and executive decisions support systems (EDSS). Worth Data also developed a USB port. The Wedge Saver prevents the user from having to buy new readers just for USB interface changes. Additionally, some new personal computers do not have PS2 keyboard ports, only USB.SolutionThe accounting and financial systems can be fix by migrating into a centralized Oracle database. At first it must be tested to see if it will work and if it does then the company should implement it to all locations. Testing and configuration will be accomplished on the Oracle Systems using data from the Legacy systems to ensure 100% accurate migration of data also have, ongoing testing between the clients and the Oracle systems will be carried out to ensue they will have enhanced functionality to meet the organization requirements. Links and URL must be added into the company's internal intra...
