The software package developed by students of Novosibirsk State Technical University (NSTU) solves a wide range of tasks and is a useful tool for managers, project managers, logisticians and accountants.
As Oksana Chernikova, Associate professor of the Department of Theoretical and Applied Computer Science at NSTU-NETI, notes, the product is easily integrated into Russian accounting systems and allows, through the use of modern machine learning algorithms and neural network technologies, to reduce information processing time and manage and plan business processes in a single software environment.
Managers can use the software package to clearly organize the workflow in accordance with accepted business decisions, coordinating the work of the team and minimizing errors related to the human factor, project managers - to reduce the time for information processing, automate the same type of actions, such as organizing the forwarding of documents and reminders, logisticians — to keep records of the materials used, etc. funds, warehouse logistics, including inventory management in warehouses, demand forecasting and procurement. Accountants can use the developed solution for transparency of movement and accessibility of primary documents, designers can receive incoming information for design, create executive documentation and transfer results to contractors and customers in real time, as well as store documentation, subcontractors can receive assignments (applications, working documentation) and transfer results (photos and materials reports, data for executive documentation, invoices and acts of completed works).
The implementation of the complex at several Russian enterprises has made it possible to ensure independence from foreign software and use AI tools both for strategic planning and for rapid analysis of the current state, adds Vitaly Karmanov, Associate Professor at the Department of Theoretical and Applied Computer Science at NSTU-NETI.
"Participating in the development allowed me to put the knowledge I gained at the university into practice. The experience of working in a team and working with customers during the implementation phase proved to be very useful to me. I gained not only professional experience, but also the skills to participate in teleconferences and negotiations," said Nikita Chaika, one of the developers, a student at the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science.
"Now we continue to expand the functionality of the software, adapting it to the specifics of specific organizations. With this project, we plan to participate in grant programs, start—ups, which exist both within the university and in third-party funds," adds Egor Dorogin, co-author of the development, a student at the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science.
