1.0 Introduction 1.1 Introduction AsiaBuilder

AsiaBuilder is the company that provide service and sell a plan to the most of people in south east asia. AsiaBuilder has been approved by most of expert architecture and also by a local government. MQA (Malaysia Qualification Agency) also has been issue about our company with latest design that give improvement to some country.AsiaBuilder has intergrate with local contractor to give some advice to a customer to choose the service compare to their problem.AsiaBuilder also give some project in freelancer also to make them earn money online.AsiaBuilder always creating/introducing the new design of the architecture and landscape interior designs too.AsiaBuilder always focus on the new creativity and the new stability of the plan.Main objective in this company is all about greeny environment.AsiaBuilder provide with flourist and garderner to make up your landscape. AsiaBuilder has been know as a problem analyst specialist since 2 years ago.This problem analyst can be measurement unit also and sometime this unit can give the cost of material and the cost after optimization compare to customers land.

1.2

Bussiness Strategy
To attract the customers with the new deisgn of architecture. To avoid the customer from being victim of fake architecture. To give the lowest cost of services. To maintain higher level of transperancy , intergrity and profesionalism. To be most trusted architecture company. To minimise the cost of client and provider.

Malaysia is the best country with dynamic architecture.Most of Malaysian have their own land and some of Malaysia seeking for the design of architecture for their house.The normal architecture always introduce the old design sometime make you feel unsatisfied with it.

Asia builder have plan since years ago to give a sutisfied plan that bringing with the new design of structure.But the company is lack of service because the plan can be sell manually and also sometime wasting the customers time. On order, AsiaBuilder have a big network around the world but the product of AsiaBulder cannot be export outside the local country because having some plan and landscape need to be approved by a local company this may need about 2 or 1 month to be approved. Our strategy of business is build up more advertisement and network to communicate with international customers and provide new idea to us to create the new design of plan.

2.0 IT architecture

2.1

The current method used in the organization:

The cycle matrix below show four faculties of the organization with it is main tools that

use to manage the work through the different stages of producing the design for the customer.

files. reports. shelfs. archive room. (designs,workers attendance, bills, contracts. ARCHIVE COMMUNICATION

fixed telephone. pos. fax. 1- inernal communication between departments. ex custmers, authrties, ...etc.

ADVERTISMENT

DESIGN

newspapers. postrs for general. magazines. spring boards.

drawing. modulating. design, decoration. ( Gypsum, cartoon, plastic, drawing tools, papers, stationary ).

In our business we have two types of designs, applied/provided designs. Applied design is the design which is been applied by the customer or the customer gave its details in order to make the architecture design by our engineers, while the provided design is the one we provided in our galleries or exhibitions or for specific projects. The organization use the files and papers for archive to keep all official documents like designs which already sold, staff and workers attendance, bills, contracts and ownership documents of properties, which all need archive room to keep this important files. As we can

see in communication the use of fax, post, telephone all are so limited and cant reach more people of the targeted category, the quality of the communication between the organization and the customer still can hold a misunderstanding or arguments since the tools we use in producing the designs also still not high quality such drawings and models might not convince the customer in this era of technology, our advertisement tools also not in the level of attraction its simple and consist of newspapers, posters, magazines, boards and galleries or exhibitions we set occasionally although the last seemed advanced but it cant be effective when in designing the architecture. The process of producing a design can be distinguished from the below Scenarios:

using phone, or visit exhibitions or the gallery, or any type of media in use of advertisement. using verbal communication.

reception
will record all the details about the application of the customer . set up all the needed information to and from the both side. the department will start procedures to make the application done by the time and make it fit with the details given.

customer

relevant department

Scenario no.1

prepare the elemantry designs and izometric models

produce the archticture design with it's full models and accurate details

show them to the cusomer and get more notes additions edotings

Scenario no.2 Shows the cycle of preparing the architecture design In this cycle we can see clearly how many times we could repeat the stage to add/edit a detail from the customer and how much time and resource it cost, since there is no perfect design we may repeat the stage of design many times to satisfy our customer.

2.2

Why Information system is most needed in the organization.

The information system will improve the work and quality of the organization in all

aspects to a high quality level, as it will leads to improve the productivity and the attraction of our designs and the environment of the work which will be creative and motivated for our engineers to be more close to the work and give the best, as it will convert our designs and architectures from black and white sketch or with simple color to an impressive architectures and more attractive and unique, also using the information system in the designing process will reduce the cost of the process to its last as it will save time and effort during the process with less probability of mistakes and it will increase the accuracy of customers details and to give more beautiful touches for the interior/exterior design as well as the models and decorations, by using the information system our communications will develop and our media will reach more people and we will use more multimedia to

introduce our services to customers widely and wisely.IS also needed to our company to make everything managed and easily to give a full support to a customers.This improvement can make a positive effect toward our IS to be more user friendly with a customers and a workers to use.

2.3 Description of structure of IS in the organization.

The new Information System concentrates on improves the quality of introducing our service to the customer in the same time with making it reachable by more customers, our new website which use Joomla as a content management system storing tons of designs and archtictures all categorized and stored in the database and this gives the customer choices to find his favour, but what is uniqe here is the tool that provided by the system to help the customer to make decition by a servey filled by the customer consist of key questions that gives the system kind of feed back to reduce the range of results, but the system programmed to make the decition more easier and efficiant there is an optimaization tool comes in the last part of making decition which gives the customer the advance to qustomize his favourite desgin by change the colors or the style of particular details and see the changes takes place in the design with 3D display which can make the customer in the highest level of satisfiction with ther service and confident with his decition . In the management seek this system will provide the company with statistcs and reports using the TPS system shows the direction of peoples choices and their preference and favoursaccording to the searches customers did, this can help the company in expecting the best styles and the prefered oponents to produce the more acceptable in the archticture industry world.
