This study presents the development of an inventory system specifically designed to manage product information for Top G Watch, a small business established on January 15, 2025, located at 28 Katipunan Avenue, San Bartolome, Novaliches, Quezon City. The system aims to assist the shop in organizing and monitoring product data more efficiently by transitioning from traditional manual methods to a digital inventory system. The main challenge addressed in this study is the business’s reliance on paper-based processes for recording product details, which often leads to inefficiencies and errors. The researchers adopted the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) Waterfall model to guide the creation of the inventory system. This model consists of seven sequential phases: Planning, Analysis, Design, Development, Testing, Implementation, and Maintenance. Each stage was followed systematically to ensure that the system was built according to structured and organized development practices. The developed system successfully supported the shop owners in managing their product inventory. It features product management tools, record tracking, archiving functions, and a search field to streamline the tracking and updating of inventory items. The implementation of the system significantly reduced the need for manual recording and enhanced operational efficiency. Manual inventory recording posed several challenges for Top G Watch, including disorganization and delayed updates. In response, the researchers developed a user-friendly system tailored to the needs of the business. The system’s functionality addresses operational inefficiencies by providing a reliable and efficient way to manage inventory data. Its ease of use ensures that the shop can maintain accurate records while minimizing confusion and improving daily processes.
