Online registration system for textile industries and GSP application a case study

Abstract

The economy of Bangladesh is largely dependent on agriculture. However, the Ready Made Garments (RMG) sector has emerged as the biggest earner of foreign currency. The sector contributes significantly to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). It also provides employment to around 4.2 million Bangladeshi people. In this context the government authority should provide better services to enhance our total export. The present Generalised System of Preferences(GSP) process has, over the years, become heavy on paper and light on verification which must be tackled now to avoid having to deal with more bottlenecks and fraudulent transactions in the future and to comply with the European Union(EU) regulations on verification. This case study has conducted a detailed work for developing and integrated and interconnected “GSP online” system based on a detailed review of steps and processes for the existing Form-A filing and a substantial leap forward toward efficiency and process improvement to meet the requirements. As a consequence, on-line registration for textile Garments and GSP application submission system is a database system that makes a bridge between the Ready Made Garments (RMG) Exporter and the service providing organization. So to manage a large scale of customer (RMG exporter), it requires a complete database. In this case study, the database is designed efficiently. A web based application that can be used for both Exporter and the service providing organization to view and update information by using user interface and administrator interface. The Exporter can easily use this software from anywhere for submit his/her application for registration and also for tracking the record. They can also submit their GSP application and keep all previous GSP certificate records. On the other hand, the administrators of the organization can easily serve their client through this database software. The main objective of the service providing organization is to store REX(Registered Exporter) and manage the GSP issuing process to solve their daily problems which is perfectly organized in this database project.
