IDEAS

The purpose of this assignment was to design and build a database inventory system for the Lloyd Gourmet Cheese Company. This was a fictional company created by my lecturer. The company has been looking at new ways to manage their inventory and have been considering purchasing ERP software in the near future. Before they purchase the software, they first wanted to build a prototype using MySQL, PHP, HTML and Java script. The purpose of the prototype was to see how an ERP system could help their business and what advantages it would provide. The process of building the system was divided into three distinct tasks: Creating the database design developing forms, queries and reports, refining the database.

As part of this project I was asked to create a poster setting out the details of a new corporate creativity and innovation programme for an organisation of my choice.  The poster is positioned as a ‘call to action’ and education poster, encouraging employee participation in the new programme.

This is a project I worked on in the final year of my Engineering degree. I worked with two others. We collaborated with FoodCloud on this project. FoodCloud is a social enterprise that aims to reduce food waste and hunger within Ireland and the UK. FoodCloud gave my group this prompt: "How might we effect a step-change reduction of food waste in the Hospitality and Food Service (HaFS) sector by 2020?"

The simulation exposed me to all the aspects of setting up, operating and growing a business. It challenged me to make tough decisions in departments such as marketing, product development, manufacturing, sales, accounting, finance, business partner negotiations, and profitability analysis.
