Railway Stations And Materials Management And Cost Control System Design And Implementation

Material cost management is an important part in modern railway transport enterprises, especially in railway maintenance enterprises. During the deepening reform in railway, how to economize and better control cost stands out in the managers'minds. As far as railway maintenance enterprises are concerned, material cost, a major expense part, accounts for 80% of its overall costs. It naturally follows that the key in making industry costs under control lies in better managing its resources, that is, making the procedures of industry material—purchasing, storage, payment, etc—normative and controllable, which calls for the computer management system suitable for material cost management in production needs of enterprises at the scene to monitor controllably and normatively. But material cost management fails to attract due attention in modern railway transport enterprises, while the appliance of the computer management control software targeting on the actual characteristics of enterprises in railway management is still a gap waiting to be filled in.Designed according to the characteristics of railway industries, this system mainly has the following three functions: Management control, Data Query, Analysis and Early Warning. Based on computer management control, the system can control and manage the whole process of material operation. What's more, the system enables us to carry out different kinds of queries according to various parameters of the materials. Finally, the system is also able to provide early warnings of some aspects of materials according to realistic needs and preset parameters. It can form tables and graphs based on preset formulas and requirements during a certain period so as to provide effective and reliable controlling methods for cost control and decision analysis.
