SECTION A

(CASE STUDY IS COMPULSORY)

There was a lot of confusion in the admin block. Clark was very depressed. He wanted theinformation about the completed projects. It was already late. Peter had asked for the accounts

receivables. The finance department needed the list of follow up. Susan had mailed regarding new

product updates and how to customize it and the admin was having trouble with employee paymentand bonus.

As the COO of the ABC Lifts, Clark had seen the company grow from scratch to a two crores

turnover. Things went smooth till the last quarter. But now with increased volume of business,separate installation, service departments, govt. regulations, licensing, service and customer care, he

just could not get the information on time. Different personnel had different data. The consultant he

hired to provide solution had been insisting on developing systems to take care of the functions.This meant investment and consent from the founder.

There was another issue. The infrastructure to be hired, hosted or bought? He had to meet with theheads and make a start. May be a paperless office would solve his problem? He wanted to
