Most Stock  Marketing Report, production, and manufacturing firms have the basic problem of information flow between the various departments within the organization.

This research is intended to highlight the role of a computerized Stock  Marketing Report information system in NSEC Compare to the manual system of Stock  Marketing Report.

To identify the various problems involve in the existing Stock  Marketing Report information system of NSEC is the purpose of this research and to the proffer solutions to them.

Data were collected both by interview methods and observation method.  Stock  Marketing Report models had developed in this research as well as Stock  Marketing Report system.  Secondly, the study also investigates how NSEC manages the Stock  Marketing Report information system.

Finally computer based Stock  Marketing Report information system is suggested as a solution to more structured, efficient and effective Stock  Marketing Report control. 

ORGANISATION OF WORK

This work is divided into seven chapters.  Chapter one is the introduction, chapter two examines the literature.  Description of the existing system is in chapter three while chapter four examines the design of the new system.  Chapter five is base on implementation of the new system while chapter six is documentation.  Finally, in chapter seven, a summary is made, recommendation is offered and conclusion is also drawn.

1.1     STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

The NSEC produces and markets over four different brands of alcoholic drinks.  These products are sent to the various stored and other branches or deport with the country.  The large volume of stock coupled with the vast distribution not work creates some control and management problems.

The operation of the Enugu deport presently is completely manual and lacks some degree of information retrieval facilities.  So, obtaining, storing and updating information on each of the items is not an easy task.  It takes hours and at times, days, to locate any information acquired due to the volume of files involved.
