Design and development of a web-based food bank management system

The food bank program has been widely introduced as a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in many organizations, especially Non-Government Organizations (NGOs), to fight food poverty. Some organizations still use the manual process to manage food donations, which can lead to difficulty in keeping track of their food inventory records. It is challenging for the donor to know the food or items that are critically needed, and most of the time, they will donate anything they feel essential. Therefore, to mitigate the problems, this web-based system is developed to manage the food inventory in a better way. This project aims to provide a feature where food donors can pledge food donations directly through the system. This system is developed by using the modified waterfall model to achieve the project aim. This paper highlighted the requirements identification, design, and development phases. The system is tested based on its functionality. In future works, it is suggested to include the notification to notify the administrator and staff whenever the campaign reaches the target and to alert the administrator and staff about the food inventory when it reaches a certain quantity or expiry date.
