Abstract :
Objectives:
This study aims to develop and evaluate the National
Food Authority (NFA) Stocks Monitoring and
Management System, focusing on enhancing stock
management efficiency and reducing food waste.
Method:
A comprehensive analysis of the existing NFA stock
management practices was conducted. Subsequently, a
sophisticated software system was developed to
streamline stock monitoring, forecasting, and
distribution. This system was compared quantitatively
with traditional manual methods over a six-month trial
period.
Findings:
The NFA Stocks Monitoring and Management
System resulted in a significant reduction in food wastage,
with a 40% decrease in expired stock and a 25% increase
in on-time deliveries to beneficiaries compared to manual
methods. Additionally, stock forecasting accuracy
improved by 30%, leading to optimized resource
utilization.
Novelty:
This study presents an innovative approach to stock
management within a governmental food authority,
integrating advanced software solutions. The quantitative
results highlight the system's effectiveness in minimizing
food wastage and enhancing distribution efficiency,
offering a novel contribution to food security initiatives.
Conclusion:
The NFA Stocks Monitoring and Management System
represents a significant advancement in stock
management practices, offering tangible benefits in terms
of reduced food wastage and improved distribution
efficiency. The quantitative data from our study
demonstrates its superiority over manual methods,
reinforcing its potential for widespread adoption within
governmental food authorities, thereby contributing to
enhanced food security and resource utilization.
