    Title of the Project: - Study and analysis of overall operational function in Reliable analytical lab

    Pvt. Ltd by using appropriate MIS systems

    Duration of Research Study: - 2 months.

    Company Name: - Reliable Analytical Laboratories Private Limited

    The Founder and Managing Director, Mrs. Renu B. Kaushal, now a renowned and prominent

    figure in the analytical industry, single handedly started Reliable with bare minimum necessities

    in the year 1988. The laboratory then went on to achieve various national and international

    accreditations and recognitions, increasing its scope of testing covering wider range of products,

    activities like calibration, survey, training, consultancy. Today, Reliable is spread over the

    country with its extensive network of laboratories and offices at prime locations, franchisees at

    almost all important cities. Reliable with its invincible team, projects itself as a next generation,

    futuristic organization where "Entrepreneurship" is the key word for its members. Reliable is its

    own contender to excel the landmarks set by its own achievements as 'The Leader' in the fields it

    has ventured and left a blazing trail behind it. We are very confident of our integrity and ethics

    to see us to the top without diluting the stringent quality standards set by ourselves. Trust of our

    customers and our close interaction with the clients gives a true meaning to the word 'Reliable'.

    The MIS is defined as a Computer. Based Information System. Though there are a number of

    definitions, all of them converge on one single point, i.e., the MIS is a system to support the

    decision making function in the organization. The difference lies in defining the elements of the

    MIS.

    INTRODUCTION

    MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM ( MIS) CONCEPT

    The concept of the MIS has evolved over a period of time comprising many different facets of

    the organizational function. MIS is a necessity of all the organizations.

    The initial concepts of MIS were to process data from the organization and present it in the form

    of reports at regular intervals. The system was largely capable of handling the data from

    collection to processing. It was more impersonal, requiring each individual to pick and choose

    the processed data and use it for his requirements. This concept was further modified when a

    distinction was made between data and information. The information is a product of an analysis

    of data. This concept is similar to a raw material and the finished product. What are needed are

    information and not a mass of data. However, the data can be analyzed in a number of ways,

    producing different shades and specifications of the information as a product. It was, therefore,

    demanded that the system concept be an individual- oriented, as each individual may have a

    different orientation. Towards the information. This concept was further modified, that the

    system should present information in such a form and format that it creates an impact on its user,

    provoking a decision or an investigation. It was later realized then even though such an impact

    was a welcome modification, some sort of selective approach was necessary in the analysis and

    reporting. Hence, the concept of exception reporting was imbibed in MIS. The norm for an

    exception. Was necessary to evolve in the organization. The concept remained valid till and to

    the extent that the norm for an exception remained true and effective. Since the environment

    turns competitive and is ever changing, fixation of the norm for an exception becomes futile

    exercise at least for the people in the higher echelons of the organization. The concept was then

    evolved that the system should be capable of handling a need based exception reporting. This

    need maybe either of an individual or a group of people. This called for keeping all data together

    in such a form that it can be accessed by anybody and can be processed to suit his needs. The

    concept is that the data is one but it can be viewed by different individuals in different ways.

    This gave rise to the concept of DA .ABASE, and the MIS based on the DATABASE proved

    much more effective. Over a period of time, when these conceptual developments were taking

    place, the concept of the end user computing using multiple databases emerged.

  • 7/27/2019 ashish mis final project..docx

    7/55

    This concept brought a fundamental change in MIS. The change was decentralization of the

    system and the user of the information becoming independent of computer professionals. When

    this becomes a reality, the concept of MIS changed to a decision making system. The job in

    computer department is to manage the information resource and leave the task of information

    processing to the user. The concept of MIS in todays world is a system which handles the

    databases, databases, provides com-putting facilities to the end user and gives a variety of

    decision making tools to the user of the system. The concept of MIS gives high regard to the

    individual and his ability to use information. An MIS gives information through data analysis.

    While analyzing the data, it relies on many academic disciplines. These include the theories,

    principles and concepts from the Management Science, Psychology and Human Behaviour,

    making the MID more effective and useful. These academic disciplines are used in designing the

    MIS, evolving the decision support tools for modelling and decision - making. The foundation of

    MIS is the principles of management and if its practices. MIS uses the concept of management

    Information System can be evolved for a specific objective if it is evolved after systematic

    planning and design. It calls for an analysis of a business, management views and policies,

    organization culture and the culture and the management style. The information should be

    generated in this setting and must be useful in managing the business. This is possible only when

    it in conceptualized as system with an appropriate design. The MIS, therefore, relies heavily on

    the systems theory offers solutions to handle the complex situations of the input and output

    flows. It uses theories of communication which helps to evolve a system design capable of

    handling data inputs, process, and outputs with the least possible noise or distortion in

    transmitting the information form a source to a destination. It uses the principles of system

    Design, via. An ability of continuous adjustment or correction in the system in line with the

    Environmental change in which the MIS operates. Such a design help to keep the MIS tuned

    with the business managements needs of the organization. The concept, therefore, is a blend ofprinciple, theories and practices of the Management, Information and System giving rise to

    single product known as Management Information System (MIS). Pyramid The Physical view of

    the MIS can be seen as assembly of several subsystems based on the databases in the

    organization. These subsystems range from data collection, transaction processing and

    validating, processing, analyzing and storing the information in databases.

  • 7/27/2019 ashish mis final project..docx

    8/55

    The subsystem could be at a functional level or a corporate level. The information is evolved

    through them for a functional or a department management and it provides the information for

    the management of business at the corporate level The physical view of the MIS .The MIS is a

    product of a multi- disciplinary approach to the business management. It is a product which

    needs to be kept under a constant review and modification to meet the corporate needs of the

    information. It is prescribed product design for the organization. The MIS differs since the

    people in two organizations involved in the same business. The MIS is for the people in the

    organization.

    The MIS model may be the same but it differs greatly in the contents. The MIS, therefore, is a

    dynamic concept subject to change, time and again, with a change in the business management

    process. It continuously interacts with the internal and the external environment of the business

    and provides a corrective mechanism in the system so that the change needs of information are

    with effectively. The MIS, therefore, is a dynamic design, the primary objectively. The MIS,

    therefore, is a dynamic design the primary objective of which is to the information the

    information for decision making and it is developed considering the organizational fabric, giving

    due regard to the people in the organizational the management functions and the managerial and

    the managerial control. The MIS model of the organization changes over a time as the business

    passes through several phases of developmental growth cycle. It supports the management of

    business in each phase by giving the information which is crucial in that phase. Every has critical

    success factors in each phase of growth cycle and the MIS model gives more information on the

    critical success factors for decision making.

    Literature review

    MIS DEFINITION

    The Management Information System (MIS) is a concept of the last decade or two. It has been

    understood and described in a number ways. It is also known as the Information System, the

    Information and Decision System, the Computer- based information System. The MIS has more

    than one definition, some of which are given below.

    1. The MIS is defined as a system which provides information support for decision making in the

    organization.

    2. The MIS is defined as an integrated system of man and machine for providing the information

    to support the operations, the management and the decision making function in the organization.

    3. The MIS is defined as a system based on the database of the organization evolved for the

    purpose of providing information to the people in the organization.

    4. The MIS is defined as a Computer. Based Information System. Though there are a number of

    definitions, all of them converge on one single point, i.e., the MIS is a system to support the

    decision making function in the organization. The difference lies in defining the elements of the

    MIS. However, in todays world MIS a computerized .business processing system generating

    information for the people in the organization to meet the information needs decision making to

    achieve the corporate objective of the organization. In any organization, small or big, a major

    portion of the time goes in data collection, processing, documenting it to the people. Hence, a

    major portion of the overheads goes into this kind of unproductive work in the organization.

    Every Individual in an organization is continuously looking for some information which is

    needed to perform his/her task. Hence, the information is people-oriented and it varies with thenature of the people in the organization. The difficulty in handling this multiple requirement of

    the people is due to a couple of reasons. The information is a processed product to fulfil an

    imprecise need of the people.

  • 7/27/2019 ashish mis final project..docx

    10/55

    It takes time to search the data and may require a difficult processing path. It has a time value

    and unless processed on time and communicated, it has no value. The scope and the quantum ofinformation is individual-dependent and it is difficult to conceive the information as a well-

    defined product for the entire organization. Since the people are instrumental in any business

    transaction, a human error is possible in conducting the same. Since a human error is difficult to

    control, the difficulty arises in Ensuring a hundred per cent quality assurance of information in

    terms of completeness, accuracy, validity, timeliness and meeting the decision making needs.In

    order to get a better grip on the activity of information processing, it is necessary to have a

    formal system which should take care of the following points:

    Handling of a voluminous data.

    Confirmation of the validity of data and transaction.

    Complex processing of data and multidimensional analysis.

    Quick search and retrieval.

    Mass storage.

    Communication of the information system to the user on time.

    fulfilling the changing needs of the information.

    The management information system uses computers and communication technology to deal

    with these points of supreme importance.

  • 7/27/2019 ashish mis final project..docx

    11/55

    ROLE OF THE MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM

    The role of the MIS in an organization can be compared to the role of heart in the body. The

    information is the blood and MIS is the heart. In the body the heart plays the role of supplyingpure blood to all the elements of the body including the brain.

    The heart works faster and supplies more blood when needed. It regulates and controls the

    incoming impure blood, processes it and sends it to the destination in the quantity needed. It

    fulfils the needs of blood supply to human body in normal course and also in crisis. The MIS

    plays exactly the same role in the organization. The system ensures that an appropriate data is

    collected from the various sources, processed, and sent further to all the needy destinations. The

    system is expected to fulfil the information needs of an individual, a group of individuals, the

    management functionaries: the managers and the top management. The MIS satisfies the diverse

    needs through a variety of systems such as Query Systems, Analysis Systems, Modelling

    Systems and Decision Support Systems the MIS helps in Strategic Planning, Management

    Control, Operational Control and Transaction Processing. The MIS helps the clerical personnel

    in the transaction processing and answers their queries on the data pertaining to the transaction,

    the status of a particular record and references on a variety of documents.

    The MIS helps the junior management personnel by providing the operational data for planning,

    scheduling and control, and helps them further in decision making at the operations level to

    correct an out of control situation. The MIS helps the middle management in short them

    planning, target setting and controlling the business functions. It is supported by the use of the

    management tools of planning and control. The MIS helps the top management in goal setting,

    strategic planning and evolving the business plans and their implementation.The MIS plays the

    information generation, communication, problem identification and helps in the process of

    decision making. The MIS, therefore, play a vita role in the management, administration and

    operations of an organization.

    12/55

    IMPACT OF THE MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM

    Since the MIS plays a very important role in the organization, it creates an impact on the

    organizations functions, performance and productivity. The impact of MIS on the functions is inits management. With a good support, the management of marking, finance, production and

    personnel become more efficient. The tracking and monitoring of the functional targets becomes

    easy. The functional, managers are informed about the progress, achievements and shortfalls in

    the probable trends in the various aspects of business. This helps in forecasting and long- term

    perspective planning. The managers attention is brought to a situation which is exceptional in

    nature, inducing him to take an action or a decision in the matter. A disciplined information

    reporting system creates a structured data and a knowledge base for all the people in the

    organization. The information is available in such a form that it can be used straight away or by

    blending analysis, saving the managers valuable time. The MIS creates another impact in the

    organization which relates to the understanding of the business itself. The MIS begins with the

    definition of a data entity and its attributes. It uses a dictionary if data, entity and attributes,

    respectively, designed for information generation in the organization. Since all the information

    system use the dictionary, there is common understanding of terms and terminology In the

    organization brining clarity in the communication and a similar understanding an even of the

    organization. The MIS calls for a systemization of the business operation for an affective system

    design.

    A well designed system with a focus on the manger makes an impact on the managerial

    efficiency. The fund of information motivates an enlightened manger to use a variety of tools of

    the management. It helps him to resort to such exercises as experimentation and modelling. The

    use of computers enables him to use the tools techniques which are impossible to use manually.

    The ready-made packages make this task simpler. The impact is on the managerial ability toperform. It improves the decision making ability considerably. Since the MIS works on the basic

    systems such as transaction processing and databases, the drudgery of the clerical work is

    transferred to the computerized system, relieving the human mind for better work. It will be

    observed that a lot of manpower is engaged in this activity in the organization. It you study the

    individual time utilization and its application; you will find that seventy per cent of the time is

    spent in recording, searching, processing and communication. This is a large overhead in the

    organization. The MIS has a direct impact on this overhead.

    MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM AND COMPTER

    Translating the real concept of the MIS into reality is technically, an infeasible proposition

    unless computers are used. The MIS relies heavily on the hardware and software capacity of thecomputer and its ability to process, retrieve communicate with no serious limitations. The variety

    of the hardware having distinct capabilities makes it possible to design the MIS for a specific

    situation. For example, if the organization needs a large database and very little processing, a

    computer system is available for such a requirement. Suppose the organization has multiple

    business location at long distances and if the need is to bring the data at one place, process, and

    then send the information to various location, it is possible to have a computer system with a

    distributed data processing capability. If the distance is too long, then the computer system can

    be hooked through a satellite communication system. The ability of the hardware to store data

    and process it at a very fast rate helps to deal with the data volumes, its storage and access

    effectively. The ability of the computer to sort and merge helps to organize the data in a

    particular manner and process it for complex lengthy computations. Since the computer is

    capable of digital, graphic, word image, voice and text processing, it is exploited to generate

    information and present it in the form which is easy to understand for the information user. The

    ability of a computer system to provide security of data brings a confidence in the management

    in the storage o data on a magnetic media in an impersonal mode. The computer system provides

    the facilities such as READ ONLY where you cannot delete to UPDATE. It provides an access

    to the selected information through a password and layered access facilities. The confidence

    nature of the data and information can be maintained in a computer system. With this ability, the

    MIS become a safe application in the organization. The software, an integral part of a computer

    system, further enhances the hardware capability. The software is available to handle the

    procedural and nonprocedural data processing. For example, if you want to use a formula to

    calculate a certain result, an efficient language is available to handle the situation. If you are not

    use a formula but has to resort every time to a new procedure, the nonprocedural languages are

    available. The software is available to transfer the data from one computer system to another.

    Hence, you can compute the results at one place and transfer them to a computer located at

    another place for some other use. The computer system being able to configure to the specific

    needs helps to design a flexible MIS.

  • 7/27/2019 ashish mis final project..docx

    14/55

    The advancement in computers and the communication technology has the distance, speed,

    volume and complex computing an easy task. Hence, designing the MIS for a specific need and

    simultaneously designing a flexible and open system becomes possible, thereby saving a lot of

    drudgery of development and maintenance and maintenance of the system. The concept of user.

    Friendly systems and the end user computing is possible, making information processing a

    personalized function. However, the application of the management principles and practices in

    todays complex business world is possible only when the MIS is based on computer system

    support. And maintenance of the system. The concept of user. Friendly systems and the end user

    computing is possible, making information processing a personalized function. However, the

    application of the management principles and practices in today. complex business world is

    possible only when the MIS is based on computer system Support.

    1.6 MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM AND ACADEMICS

    The managements information system draws a lot of support from other academic disciplines

    too. The foundation of MIS is the management theory. It uses the principles and practices of

    management while designing the system, ant gives due regard to the theory of organizational

    behavior. It considers the human mind as a processor of information. While designing the report

    format and forming communication channels, MIS takes into account the Behaviour of the

    manager as an individual and in a group. It gives due regard to the Personal factors such as bias,

    thinking with a fixed frame of reference, risk aversion, Strengths and weaknesses. Another area

    of academics is operational research. The operational research is used for developing the models

    of management and they are then incorporated in the MIS as decision support systems . The

    inventory control, queuing theory, and resource Programming is used in the MIS as decision

    support systems. The network theory is used for planning and controlling large projects. The

    application of PER / CPM to a project planning is now easily possible through the MIS support.

    In the area of accounting application, it uses the accounting principles to ensure that .The data iscorrect and valid. It uses the principles of double entry bookkeeping for balancing the accounts.

    It uses the accounting methodology for generating a trial balance sheet and other books of

    accounts. The MIS uses the communication theory in a significant manner. The principle of

    feedback is used while designing analysis. Systems. While designing the report format, attention

    is paid to avoid noise and distortions in the communication process.

  • 7/27/2019 ashish mis final project..docx

    15/55

    The MIS further relies heavily on the decision methodology. It uses different mathematical

    techniques to handle the situation of decision making uses the method of decision- making under

    certainty for decision- making and action. The MIS is based on database structures, vie

    .hierarchical, network and relational Databases have roots in the mathematics and the set theory.

    The MIS becomes rich in content and more useful when it becomes more and more a decision-

    making or decision- support system. The is possible when it builds decision making systems in

    MIS which in turn is possible if it draws tools, techniques, methods, rules and principles from

    pure and application science, and use them as an integral part of the system. The MIS draws

    data from its own source and uses it in the application of a variety of tools and techniques to

    solve the management, mathematics, and accounting. Psychology, communication theory,

    operations research and probability theory for building processes, methods, and decision.

    Support systems in designing business application.

    1.7 MIS AND THE USER

    Every person in the organization is a user of the MIS. The people in the organization Operate at

    all levels in the hierarchy. A typical user is a clerk, an assistant, an officer, an executive or a

    manager. Each of them has a specific task and a role to play in the management of business. The

    MIS caters to the needs of all persons. The main task of a clerk is to search the data, make a

    statement and submit it to the higher level. A clerk can use the MIS for a quick search and

    reporting the same to higher level. An assistant has the task of collecting and organizing the data,

    and conducting a rudimentary analysis of integrating the data from different and disciplines to

    analyze it and make a critical comment if anything adverse is found. The MIS offers the methods

    and facilities to integrate the data and report the same in a proper format. An executive plays the

    role of a decision maker. He is in of responsibility and accountability a position of a planner and

    a decision maker. He is responsible for achieving the target and goals of the organization. TheMIS provides facilities to analyze the data and offers the decision support systems to perform the

    Task of execution. The MIS provides an action. Oriented information. The manager has a

    position of responsibility and accountability for the business results. His management role

    expands beyond his management function. He is a strategist and a long-term planner. He is a

    person with a foresight, an analytical ability and is expected to use these abilities in the functions

    of top management.

  • 7/27/2019 ashish mis final project..docx

    16/55

    The MIS provides information in a structured or unstructured format for him to react. The MIS

    caters to his constant changing needs of information. The user of the MIS is expected to be a

    rational person and the design of the MIS is based on this assumption. However, in reality the

    impact created on individuals by MIS is difficult to explain. The nature of the impact in a few

    cases is negative. However, this negative impact can be handled with proper training and

    counseling. It is observed that at lower level, is a sense of insecurity. As the MIS takes away the

    drudgery of search, collection, writing and reporting the data, the work vacuum, so created is not

    easily filled, thus creating a sense of insecurity. To some extent the Importance of the person is

    also lost, giving rise to a fear of non-recognition in the organization. At the level of an officer

    and an executive, the MIS does the job the of data manipulation and integration. It analyses the

    data in a predetermined manner. This means that the knowledge of business is transferred from

    an individual to the MIS and is made available to all in the organization. This change arising outof the MIS creates a sense of being neglected for knowledge, information and advice. The

    psychological impact is larger if the person is not able to cope up with this change by expanding

    or enriching the job and the position held by him. The manager holding a position in the top or

    middle management suffers from fear of challenge and exposure. The MIS makes these

    competitors more effective as they have access to the information and have an ability to

    interpret. This leads to a situation where he is afraid that that his position, decision and defense

    will be challenged and may be proved wrong sometime. The risk of adverse exposure to the

    higher management also increases. The effects so far pointed out are all negative and they are

    seen only in few cases. The positive effects on the individuals at all levels are that they have

    become more effective operators. The time and energy which was spent earlier in unproductive

    work is now applied for a productive work. Some are able to use their analytical skills and

    knowledge with the information support for improving their position in the organization.

    Managers, having improved their decision. Making ability, are able to handle the complex

    situations with relative ease. Some are benefited by improving their performance and being held

    in high esteem by the higher management. The enterprising managers are able to use the systems

    and the models for trying out a Number of alternatives in a given problem situation. The impact

    of the MIS on People Of the organization is phenomenal as it has made the same body of people

    collectively more effective and productive. The recent major technological advances in

    communication such as Multimedia, Imaging. Graphical User Interfaces (GUI), Internet, Web

    etc. and the ability to access the data stored at different locations on the variety hardware of

    platforms would make MIS more attractive and efficient proposition.

    An intelligent user of information can demonstrate the ability of decision making, since his

    manipulative capability is considerably increased, with the information now being available on

    his desktop. Through the MIS, the information can be used as a strategic weapon to counter the

    threats to business, make business more competitive, and bring about the organizational

    transformation through integration. A good MIS also makes an organization seamless by

    Finance:

    Finance is the study of how people allocate theirassets over time under conditions of certainty

    and uncertainty. A key point in finance, which affects decisions, is the time value of money,

    which states that a unit of currency today is worth more than the same unit of currency

    tomorrow. Finance aims to price assets based on their risk level, and expected rate of return.

    Finance can be broken into three different sub categories:public finance,corporate finance and

    personal finance. Managerial or corporate finance is the task of providing the funds for a

    corporation's activities (forsmall business,this is referred to asSME finance). Corporate finance

    generally involves balancing risk and profitability, while attempting to maximize an entity's

    wealth and the value of itsstock,and generically entails three interrelated decisions. In the first,

    "the investment decision", management must decide which "projects" (if any) to undertake. The

    discipline of capital budgeting is devoted to this question, and may employ standard business

    valuation techniques or even extend to real options valuation; see Financial modelling. The

    second, "the financing decision"relates to how these investments are to be funded: capital here is

    provided by shareholders, in the form of equity. (Privately or via an initial public offering),

    creditors,often in the form ofbonds,and the firm's operations (cash flow). Short-term funding or

    working capital is mostly provided by banks extending a line of credit. The balance between

    these elements forms the company'scapital structure.The third, "the dividend decision", requires

    management to determine whether any inappropriate profit is to be retained for future investment

    / operational requirements, or instead to be distributed to shareholders, and if so in what form.

    Short term financial management is often termed "working capital management", and relates to

    cash-,inventory-anddebtors management. These areas often overlap with the firm'saccounting

    function, however, financial accounting is more concerned with the reporting of historical

    financial information, while these financial decisions are directed toward the future of the firm.

    Another business decision concerning finance is investment, or fund management. An

    investment is an acquisition of anasset in the hope that it will maintain or increase its value. In

    investment managementin choosing aportfolioone has to decide what, howmuch and when

    to invest. To do this, a company must: Identify relevant objectives and constraints: institution or

    individual goals, time horizon.

    Economic Environment of Business:

    This section deals with over economic condition of the business in globally. The

    conditions of the business in different countries effect the situations of the other countries. The

    value of rupee is decreasing day by day. The current studies suggest that if this decrement

    prevails in the market for longer time will create inflation in the country. The import and export

    will be the first thing to be hampered by this situation. As the import will become more costly for

    Indian people and they wont be earning properly from the exports.

    Unit 2012-13 2013-14

    Macroeconomic outlook

    GDP Growth (%) 5.0* 6.0

    Exchange rate Re / US$ (march end) 54.4 54.0

    The exporters will not be earning properly for their products. In this situation to bear a

    cost of testing the product from the recognized lab may create losses for the Indian exporters in

    their business. This situation is indirectly affecting the testing industry on a large extent. As

    inflation will increase the price of everything, in that no one can afford to test their product to

    add the cost to their product. But the government has made it mandatory to have testing of the

    products before actual sell of that product. This will force the manufacturer to increase the price

    of the product to have proper returns.

    The reason for the decrease in the value of money is that the different MNCs and FDI

    are investing to grab the Indian market. They have so many products to launch and they find that

    India is the market to invest because of its large population and high purchasing power. The

    Indian population gets the variety of products and buy them. These lead to the revenue

    generation for outside country. As in India the products are manufactured but the buyers are not

    interested to buy so the revenue generation is less compare to the foreign companies.

    CALIBRATION

    Calibration is the process of establishing the relationship between a measuring device and the

    units of measure. This is done by comparing a device or the output of an instrument to a standard

    having known measurement characteristics. The quality of the calibration needs to be known and

    is quantified by an uncertainty estimate for the calibration. To improve the quality of the

    calibration and have the results accepted by outside organizations, Reliable conducts the

    calibration and subsequent measurements to be "traceable" to the internationally defined

    measurement units which are accomplished by a formal comparison to a standard which is

    directly or indirectly related to national international standards.

    NEED FOR CALIBRATION

    RELIABLE offers laboratory and on-site calibrations for various test and process equipments.

    Calibration is regular need of manufacturing units, processing units, storage units (cold storages

    Services > Calibration > Calibration

    Calibration

    Calibration is the comparing of an unknown measurement device against an equal or better

    standard. A standard in a measurement is considered the reference; it is the one in the

    comparison taken to be the more correct of the two. One calibrates to find out how far the

    unknown is from the standard.

    The device with the known or assigned correctness is called the standard. The second device is

    the unit under calibration (UUC), test instrument (TI), or any of several other names for the

    device being calibrated

    HACCP certification.ISO: 22000 FS MS and ISO:17025-2005. To lead and operate an

    organization successfully, it is necessary to direct and control it in a systematic and transparent

    manner. Success can result from implementing and maintaining a management system that is

    designed to continually improved performance while addressing the needs of all interested

    parties.ISO: 9001 specifies requirements for a Quality Management system when an

    organization needs to demonstrate its ability to provide products that fulfill customer and

    applicable regulatory requirements and aims to enhance customer satisfaction. HACCP, Hazard

    Analysis and Critical Control Point, is a process control system designed to identify and prevent

    microbial and other hazards in food production. It includes steps designed to prevent problems

    before they occur and to correct deviations as soon as they are detected. Such preventive control

    system with documentation and verification are widely recognized by scientific authorities and

    international organizations as the most effective approach available for producing safe food.

    As customer needs and expectations are changing and because of competitive pressures and

    technical advances, organizations are driven to improve continually their products and

    processes.ISO:9001, HACCP and ISO: 22000 FS MSprovide confidence to the organization

    and its customers that it is able to provide products that consistently fulfill requirements.ISO:

    RTL Conclusion

    1) RTL is not as expressive for algorithms or data structures as most software programming

    languages.

    2) The concurrency model is that everything executes in lock-step. The programmer keeps all

    this concurrency in his/her mind.

    3) Users must generate their own, bespoke handshaking and flow control between components.

    4) Higher-level entry forms are ideally needed, perhaps scheduling within a thread at compile-

    time and between threads at run time

    Finding

    1) In Reliable lab. Pvt. Ltd. the RTL Software is good for update the data.

    2) The RTL Software is very useful to update the customer data for. Ex. Customer Name.

    3) IN RTL software we can insert the sample entry, test request, reporting copy in customer care.

    4) The authorized process => first we can check the letter .then after check the test (if the test is

    new then add) then authorized.

    Recommendations

    1) Due to global capitation in India we have to develop our software to compete with the global

    world competitors

    2) Do more research on business to develop our company as more as our visionary want requires

    3) Develop operations processes and technique to easy handling of material and give report on

    earlier time as possible as.
