Java OOP System for Marine Services

As part of a collaborative team project, we developed a robust and feature-rich system for a marine services company using Java Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) principles. The system was designed to streamline business operations and enhance customer satisfaction by efficiently managing various aspects such as orders, suppliers, inventory, employees, and job scheduling.

Key Features:

• Customer Order Management: Enabled seamless creation, updating, and tracking of customer orders, ensuring accuracy and timely processing.
• Supplier Management: Maintained supplier details, purchase orders, and stock updates to optimize inventory management.
• Inventory Tracking: Automated stock level monitoring to prevent shortages and ensure smooth business operations.
• Employee Management: Streamlined employee information management, including job assignments and schedules.
• Job Scheduling: Implemented job prioritization and scheduling algorithms to efficiently allocate resources.
• Automated Notifications: Integrated email notifications for order confirmations, job status updates, and low-stock alerts.
• Sales Reports: Generated real-time sales and performance reports to aid decision-making and business strategy planning.

Technology Stack:

Challenges and Solutions:

• Data Consistency: Implemented transaction handling in MySQL to ensure consistency during concurrent operations.
• Notification System: Integrated the JavaMail API for automated and reliable email notifications to customers and staff.
• Scalability: Designed the system with modularity to accommodate future business requirements and system expansions.
• Collaboration: Ensured smooth teamwork using GitHub for version control, pull requests, and issue tracking.

Lessons Learned:

This project enhanced my skills in Java programming, object-oriented design, and database management. It also improved my ability to work effectively in a team environment, solve real-world problems, and develop scalable, user-friendly software systems.

Additionally, integrating features such as email notifications and sales reporting provided valuable insights into implementing automation and data-driven strategies in software solutions.
