Designing a Fish & Analytics App for a Public Market

Introduction

This project aimed to digitize the operations of a local fish market here in Dumaguete. Initially, we consulted the College of Marine Science to understand the challenges faced in the fishing economy and ecosystems. While the focus began on addressing the issue of small fish populations due to overfishing in protected ecosystems, discussions shifted toward a more immediate problem affecting the fish market directly. A professor advised us to explore the inefficiencies in the inventory and reporting systems used by the market. This led us to develop a solution to streamline their operations, ensure accurate monthly reporting for government offices, and improve overall management.

Problem

The fish market faced challenges with an outdated manual inventory system and inefficient report generation processes. These issues caused delays in submitting accurate data to government offices and hindered the effective management of market operations. A more modern, digitized solution was needed to address these inefficiencies and improve overall productivity.
