INTRODUCTION

1.1 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

In examination of the main processing techniques used in ID-card

processing system from the stage of data processing system to end stage of the

processed ID-Card, a number of problem area are made known, which are as

follows:

It has been noted that for students to relieve or collect their ID-Card in

institute of management and technology (IMT) Enugu, they queen up for several

hours from one unit of the processing center to the another with the manual

processed involved in handling the students ID-card process, most of them waste

the whole day in the processing center without getting their ID-cards. So student

do waste a lot of time in taking information and retrieving the students records.

1.2 AIM OF THE STUDY

In looking at the already mentioned problems that is naturally parts of

the conventional system, the aim of the study is to provide the description ID-

card processing system for student’s information with users who have had a little

communication with computer science.

The purpose of this study is not to replace record employees, but to assist

them to increase on the processing work. This will go further completely to

remove invalid processing of ID-card, which can be implicating to the students,

consequently, this will help the user to overcome stress and constancy of being

overworked. This study is also aimed at educating the users and records

employees in IMT Enugu and other private and government owned schools on

how best a computerize ID-card processing system could help for optimum

services to the public.

1.3 PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

This project will be tested based on the following aims and objectives:

(a) To examine the recent procedures employed in IMT Enugu with regards

to ID-card processing.

(b) To design a system with the capability of providing a wait-and-take

processed ID-card.

(c) To design an ID-card processing system that ensures timely processing.

(d) To improve on the already existing system by designing a successful,

secured privacy and reliable ID-card processing system that will help in

providing complementary help to ID-card processing personnel through

the availability of computerized information.

1.4 SCOPE OF THE STUDY

As a result of the difficulties of development of an ID-card processing

system for ID badge system, smart print, start, smarter system etc. this research

has been limited to student’s ID-card processing.

 The processing covers all the school and department in IMT Enugu.
 The study also involves method of inputting data, outputting student’s

information on the ID-card processing system

 Brief overview on processed ID-card.
