Conclusion
The comparison between the two system can be understood best based on the four categories:

TIME - The proposed system will take less time to add/update data. It will also help in
easy tracking of existing data. It will reduce delays and ultimately the lead time.

MONEY - The amount of money spent will be minimal when it comes to making of
the application, training the user, setting up and implementation.

MANPOWER - Manpower will remain constant but the manual work will be easier.

EFFICIENCY - The proposed system will be highly efficient than any normal excel based
tracking and it also acts as an effective communication platform
Internal survey helped in identification of on-time
delivery failure reasons and style preferences.
