Abstract

The paper presents a part of the research of a real industrial system in the Republic of Macedonia with the ultimate aim of providing information assurance of the logistics within the studied system. From the systematic analysis of the investigated industrial system we see that the logistics activities are scattered in the different areas of the company. Knowing the great role of logistics in achieving the goal of each enterprise - the competitive advantage of the market, we set ourselves the task of presenting the structure of the logistics system in the overall organizational structure of the system, and then to build an information system (IS) for logistics. In defining and validating information needs, we have consistently established an active relationship with the management team of the enterprise, from which we conclude that managers (especially senior executives) are most interested in information serving the logistics of the company, for the simple reason that the functioning of the other departments already contained certain satisfactory information based on the financial-accounting information system.
On the basis of the financial-accounting information system, we develop an original research-based computer program that besides satisfying the management needs of information on the overall management of the company, also responds to the information needs in terms of ensuring logistics management. The computer program, although developed for a specific enterprise, can be introduced in other enterprises in the same industry as well as for the management of other industrial enterprises with some adaptation. The MS Visual Basic object-oriented programming language and the MS Access database support program were used in the development of the computer program. The Crystal Reports generator has been used to create special reports, signs and graphics.
Key words: information systems, information, logistics management, logistics, decisions
