This unit is a production unit for matchboxes that require a very
labour intensive manufacturing process. As match box manufacturing
requires the raw material that is highly inflammable and very
destructive in nature; therefore, a lot of extra safety measures
have to be taken at every stage from storage to production to
distribution and this makes every intermediate operational process
very complicated. Packing of matchsticks is also very peculiar
as it uses a very specific stamping system on the packaged product.
Company's wage calculation process is also very complex as the
salary of workers depends upon many factors. Company also wanted
to have a workflow and executive information system.
