ABSTRACT
This is a research work on Design and Implementation of a computerized personnel Appraisal system. Personnel appraisal has continued to grow from local appraisal system to a highly technologically form. In this new age, computer is also being used for other activities manually conducted before. Thus, we will see how computer can be used to achieve efficiency in personnel appraisal. The research is carried out to computerize the personnel appraisal information system. The expected computerized system arrived at in this work aims at the problem, needs, requirements and specification or the firm’s personnel appraisal system. The basic purpose of this research project is to achieve the above mentioned objectives, the research are collected in both primary and secondary data form, face to face questions from business establishment and staff of the case study. This work is done as to study in whole the causes of all the problems and in particular to develop a personnel appraisal system in the case study. Finally, recommendation shows that if computers are used in carrying out the job of personnel appraisal it would be faster and easier to compile, save and retrieve. Nevertheless, this system will be developed using visual basic 6.0 interfaces with Microsoft access then as the data base, the logics can be used in related system with little modification.

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
In recent years more especially, personnel appraisal system has continued to find a means by which the manual method of recording or processing personnel system can be converted to computer processing method. The concept of computerized system had been the instrument in achieving the individual and group goal or objective.
However, computerization is beset with many problems which affect its level of operation, it is based on the fact that authors in system analysis, information media labour themselves to write about computerization personnel system and taking in consideration measures to bringing a successful input or output of the information system into existence, how to increase efficiency and effectiveness of result and how to eliminate many problems associated with the manual method of data processing.
Therefore, without doubt it can be proved boldly that computerized information system relief the personnel managers the time consuming in doing the routine task which otherwise weigh the department down while at the same time realizing the true productive role of personnel in modern day business industries etc.
The research work is carried out to computerize the personnel appraisal information system. The expected computerized system arrived at in this work aim at the problem, needs, requirements and specification. Therefore, this work is done as to study in whole what the causes of all these problems and particularly to develop a personnel appraisal system in the case study.
Finally, the recommendation shows that if computers used in carrying out the job of personnel appraisal system it would be successful and easier to compile.
1.2 STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
This research work is carried out to design or rather computerized the personnel information system. The expected computerized system arrived at the end of this work after a critical study is made of “what are the problems, needs, requirements and specification of I.M.T”.
1.3 AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
This study to a large extent will influence the existing system of operation. A critical analysis of the present mode will be made and factors affecting it determined.
The aims and objectives of this study cannot be over emphasized as its usefulness will cut across the entire department in institution of management and Technology Enugu.
All activities carried out by the entire department and tailored towards the proper functioning of the personnel system.
In other words, the proposed system to be arrival at as the output of the study will among other aid in the following.
i Storage of large volume data with ease retrieval
ii Generation of variable number of reports.
Iii Major Assistant in decision making in I.M.T.
1.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROJECT
It is not uncommon for system so developed to one serious problem after they have been installed, thus they require expensive modifications. In short the method used for developing most system is often both inefficient and ineffective.
Traditionally management succession planning depend either on the grapevine on personnel executives coming through substantial numbers of manually held records hold in office flat files. All the data about employee are kept and recorded by hand. It is t be noted here that much more time will be consumed using these methods where large members of staff are involved, in most cases employee are found to have different issue with the personnel department, a worker may want to discuss with the department based on salary advance loan, and annual leave so on, thus, it will be seen that going through the cabinet and checking for the records of staff in their respective file will be very tedious and consume a lot of time.
Without doubt it can be proved boldly that computerized information system relief the personnel managers of all those time consuming routine tasks case study which otherwise weigh the department down while at the same time realize the true productive role of personnel appraisal system in modern day business industries and public service.
Therefore, there is need to establish a research to study. In whole what are the causes of all these problems. Develop a personnel information system for the case study.
Not only that will enable results to be obtained from the system as soon as possible, the lapse and reasons for this will be addressed.
1.5 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
The project scope is based on institute of management and Technology (I.M.T.) aids its research is to the personnel management as practical in the case study. Furthermore some of the principle adopted in this study would be useful to any establishment encountered with the same kind of problems in handling their respective personnel management information system.
1.6 LIMITATION
Actually, the scope of this study was limited to most parts of the work due to short time and also lack of some vital information from my case study.
However, with some resources available, which were gotten from groups and individuals that in one way or the other, have been affected by the same study. This individual include mainly staffs and workers of IMT made the research quiet complex and enormous a lot of setbacks were encountered mostly the limited time that I had.
