...MSIS 5123 ENTERPRISE RESOURCE PLANNING CASE STUDY 1: THE FITTER SNACKER SALES ORDER PROCESS SUBMITTED BY: Vatsal Pandey CWID # 11516742 EMAIL: vatsal.pandey@okstate.edu PART 1 1. Describe the current order-fulfillment (order-to-cash) process at FS (Fitter-Snacker) at a high level using a flowchart or any other visual approach. 2. Comment upon the current organizational structure of FS as well as its current processes and their effectiveness. Fitter Snacker represents a perfect example of a traditional business model where each department is acting as a separate entity having a poor communication among them. From the case study, it can be seen that Fitter Snacker comprises of four departments viz., Sales, Warehousing, Accounting, Receiving. It seems that each department are not much aware of the activities other departments are performing. Apart from that, department specific processes are also erroneous. Hence, in a nutshell, Fitter Snacker is a fragmented organization. If we look at the sales process, it is inefficient and flawed. The sales department has a separate data management system. All the sales data is periodically transferred between departments. For sales quotation, there is a telephonic negotiation between sales person and customer. Two copies of sales quotation is generated as manually keeping records. Arithmetic errors in quotation, late receipt of quotation, etc. are some flaws that make sales process more problematic. This also...

...Vatsal desai Block 02 Mr. Berns Atomic Mass of Vegium Lab 1) Carbon-14, is useful in studying abnormalities of metabolism that underlie diabetes, gout, anemia, and acromegaly. It is the isotope used in radiocarbon dating and radiolabeling. Radiocarbon dating is determining the age of different organic materials, by measuring the amount of carbon-14 in a material, compared to the amount of carbon-12. Carbon dating makes use of the fact that some atoms – radioactive atoms – change over time into other types of atoms in a natural process known as radioactive decay. 2) Americum-241, is used as a component in household and industrial smoke detectors, where a small amount is used in an ionization chamber inside the detector. Americium-241 is the only isotope of americium to have widespread commercial use. It is the radiation source for a number of applications: • medical diagnostic devices • research • fluid-density gauges • thickness gauges • aircraft fuel gauges distance-sensing devices, all of which utilize its gamma radiation. A mixture of americium-241 and beryllium provides a neutron source for industrial devices that monitor product quality. Two examples are devices for nondestructive testing of machinery and gauges for measuring the thickness of glass and other products. 3) Iodine-131, is used in nuclear medicine both diagnostically and therapeutically. Examples of its use in radiation therapy include the treatment of thyrotoxicosis and thyroid cancer. Diagnostic tests exploit...

It imparts him the knowledge of right and wrong and opens the door of opportunities for him but unfortunately the present state of education in our country renders these causes unattainable. Though the State has made efforts in this direction by passing the law of Right to Education in 2009 emphasising free and compulsory education for children between 6 and 14 years of age under Article 21a of the Constitution, but the situation at ground still remains abysmally bad. A survey titled “Learning Block” done by a non-government organisation CRY- Child Relief and You, has revealed that primary and upper-primary level schools in the country still don’t have basic necessities. The study revealed that more than 75% of schools lacked furniture and fixtures like tables, chairs and benches and that 41% of schools taught students in the open. About 44% of the schools don’t have electricity and in Eastern India 74% of the schools didn’t have electricity. Clearly, it’s impossible for us to imagine the plight of these students. Imagine a small room with no electricity, no water, no toilet, no black-board...
