1.7 LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
1. Time constraint; There is limited time go and meet the hospital pharmacist for proper information.
2.
Due to the sensitive nature of organizational information, there was
reluctance to release vital information which may jeopardize the
security of the organization. 1.8 PROJECT REPORT ORGANIZATION This
research project covers almost all you need to know about drug
procurement and distribution tracking system. Chapter one is the
introduction and it covers the statement of problem, objectives of the
study, significance of the study, scope of the study, assumption,
limitations of the study and definition of terms. Chapter two is the
literature review; it gives the detailed meaning of every associated
word in my topic. Chapter three is the design and methodology; this
involves the operation of the existing system and the method used.
Chapter four is the system analysis and implementation; which talked
about the operation of the proposed system. Chapter five is the summary,
recommendation and conclusion.

Using the pharmaceutical department of Port Harcourt University teaching hospital as a case study, the department using manual method to operate lacks good storage of information system for drugs. Recording system tends to be complex and the method of tracking expired drug is poor. The good approach to this probl ... Continue reading---
