What Should Junk Van Do

Hello Mr. Peterson, I recently returned from Montreal from the meeting with Junk Van and their Information Technology consultants. The issue Junk Van was facing was regarding the need to expand their IT capabilities in order to expand their operations further. Currently they are experiencing daily processing errors such as inaccurate data, lost emails and manual calculation errors. The solution the consultants suggested was to use software as a service to provide them with the IT software required to function. Software as a service is as the name suggests software being treated as a service rather than a product. We will talk about the issues with that concept later in the memo, but for now one should focus on the positives Software as a Service.  In this case, one can assume that the software in question would be similar to the microsoft office suite and google docs/drive.  In this case one can view my previous post regarding which one to use between Microsoft and Google her...

HTML Coding & API with respect to Google Maps.

Hello Mr. Peterson, As you can tell by the header of my blog, there is a google map of the Magic Kingdom at the top of my Blog. This was done as a test of Google's API for Google maps, in particular google maps embed APIs.  APIs can do more than just allow for one to show a map of a location, for example our business, on a blog or website. APIs have all sorts of uses from a variety of different sources. There are Youtube APIs, Google search history APIs, and plenty of other APIs not developed by Google. Honestly, I see the need to dive deep into researching the topic to better improve our company's presence on the web. Now as for specific Google Maps Embed API for a given location, its usefulness really depends on whether or not our hypothetical firm in question requires that we attract people to our location. Such places include stores, doctor's offices, lawyers offices, or any other place which requires a one to physically be there to take advantage of the service. Whi...

Should We be Using Smartdraw or other similar Software.

Hello Mr. Peterson, I was informed that you are interested in using some form of drawing software for the creation of training materials and other paper work. One such program you mentioned was Smart Draw and the other mentioned was Visio by Microsoft. Both programs are primarily used for business applications and they both specialize in creating more visual based documents. Such materials include, floor charts, flowcharts, maps, forms, diagrams of people, emergency plans, and even tools to aid in the planning process. From what I have tested of Smart Draw using its free trial, the software appears to be quite user friendly are primarily relies on the “drag and drop” method. In other words one just needs to click on an object and then move it somewhere else. Smart Draw also uses the same basic keyboard shortcuts as Microsoft’s software and it is even compatible with Microsoft’s Visio software. However, I am only using thein web browser version of the software, thus if the internet i...

Should we Upgrade our Point of Sale System.

Dear Mr. Peterson, I was one of the managers present at the Zara meeting regarding their POS system upgrade. Zara’s business model relies customer’s satisfaction and getting products in customer’s hands as quickly as possible A sales associate has very administrative duties at this point which allows for them to interact with customers and determine which items must be ordered based on customer preference. . The Store associate has a PDA on hand that allows for them to  collect data from the customer and even place an order to the central warehouse to ensure that the new product will be on the shelves within 2 weeks. The goal is to ensure that the customer is engaged, and buys something during any one of their 17 visits to the store. My understanding of our current POS system is that it is DOS based and that we use dial up modems during the information backup procedures. This ultimately leads to our current measure of our inventory being only an estimate. The original system h...
