Abstract
Country Side Micro finance Ltd is one of the Institutions that have been facing problems.
The problem faced by this institution is the paper work that is carried out in order to have
the organization carry out its operations so as to maintain business processes going on. This
has led to the organization to have a lot of delay in handling, disseminating and updating
information regarding the monitoring, evaluation and analysis of information that was
gathered about the institution and its clients from the daily activities and hence much time
than necessary is lost in the slow manual process and bureaucratic procedures and methods.
This is the reason the researcher saw it necessary to carry out the research and come out
with recommendations at the end.
During the research, the methodology that was used to carry out the study was not different
from the usual method used in most researches and studies. These are the methods used to
gather data from the population using the following methods like interview, questionnaires,
cxisting documents and observation. When the data was collected, it was then analyzed so
as to come up with the requirements for the system to be built to solve the existing
problem.
It was found out that, Country Side Micro finance does not have not computerized systems
in place to handle their operations.
It is therefore recommended that the institution fully adopt a computerized system so as to
help organize their operations and monitor and evaluate the performance of the institution
in order to keep track of the loan and savings systems.
