CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1    BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Many decades back, very little attention was given to information organization. Management had been mostly concerned with the proper application of management principles on resources to keep the organization going.  But recently, there has been an overwhelming realization of the importance of information as the life-wire of any organization.  Before any business is set up, there must be relevant information relating to that line of business and data has to be collected and evaluated to make sure that the business will be a viable one.  So also, strategies relating to that business line should be planned ahead of the commencement of the business if the business is expected to succeed.  Hence for better planning and good decision making management must have at their disposal, ready and accurate information.  This great importance now placed on information has been necessitated by the ever-increasing scope of communication and the expanding size and complexity of today’s business environment.  Much emphasis is now placed on information to all walks of life and in particular to business environment or resources as regards filing in an organization.

Efficient filing system in an organization helps the management of such organization in taking or making timely and accurate decisions.  Information, as defined by Ottih (1989) is data that has been processed in any way that is beneficial to the recipient.  Which means that data in its raw form has to be processed and shaped into useful information for managerial use.  The act of data processing therefore is the collecting, classifying summarizing, reporting and sorting of information (Lyon and Ivancevich, 1976). The pieces of written fact relating to the running of the organization are what constituted its records.  According to Johnson and Kallous (1974) filing system is an act that emerged with data processing and is primarily concerned with systematic handing and proper filing system of an organization from its creation to its final disposal.

Records keeping dates back to the early man when the act of writing began.  Not having any need for much record to be kept, the early man kept records of very memorable events in caves, stone, wax parchments earthenware vessels.  Some of these were also buried in the earth and dug up after several years.  In cities of early civilization like Ancient Egypt and in the Roman days there came a realization of the convenience of arranging and keeping together in one place, all papers received from individuals of organizations people kept records of all purchases and sales of land and referred to them from time to time (Payne 1970).

The act of filing was seen in the Roman Empire when records were stung on threads.  This was how the modern term “File” was derived from a latin word for thread , which is orderly arrangement of records that gave rise to the basic methods of filing (alghabetic, subject, chronological and geographical) that are found in existence today. With this also came the procedures of filing, which includes inspecting, coding, cross-referencing, sorting, and sorting. This enable the proper storage of records in a manner that allows for easy and speedy retrieval when needed.

Very few business ownership existed within this period and tread secrets within their heads and few legal documents. The emergency of various business ownerships and the increasing size and scope of operations have made people to be very much aware of happenings. Johson and kallaus (1974) had it that decades back when the early man really had no need for much records still. But recently, many organizations have grown in size and complexity to the extent that they are industrially revolutionized.  In order to catch up with the ever-growing scientific business environment, organizations have towed a new path towards the development of machines and instruments to replace or enhence human manual dextenity.

So the modern office is undergoing some technological changes to meet the increased need for information storage.  Over the years, a gradual technological development have been recorded in the area of filing system with a variety of office equipment introduced.  With the application of this advancement to office, filing system answers to inquires can easily and quickly be given by more keying in some codes or commands to tract the required storage location to retrieve information stored there.

Human judgment is still required to direct the entire operation and put them into proper use.  In agreement, Denyer (1986) has to say that it is not the equipment in use that determines a good result in filing system, rather the personnel who apply the system should be able to use them in a beneficial way to achieve maximum efficiency.  Hence, for the achievement of higher productivity in office operations at a lower cost, there is the need the presence of adequate and capable records, personnel to ensure that they are not properly used.

 

1.2     STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

In most organization, the issue of good and efficient filing system has posed a lot of problems and challenges to them conferences, seminars, and workshops may have been organized in the past and recent times to enhance an efficient and accurate filing system, but more or less, it has not achieved completely the aims and objectives. No wonder whitehead (1975) stated that “the essence to having files in the office is to keep related documents together so that information contained in them can be produced with minimum delay”. Consequently, now as then, the problems of finance, delay in filing, untrained personnel in the registry, lacks of motivations, no established  procedure, and especially poor  knowledge in the use of modern electronic equipment and many more have not eradicated the ugly and tasking problems in filing system hence this project.

1.3      Objectives of the study

Based on the above problems this work is therefore desiged to do the following:

(a)  Identify the current system of filing in selected organization.

(b)  Identify the problems of these methods

 

(c)  Identify the consequences of inefficient filing.

(d)  Identify the advantages of a good filing system.

I actually googled and saw about iproject master, copied the number and contacted them through WhatsApp to ask for the availability of the material and to my luck they have it. So there was a delay with the project due to the covid19 pandemic. I was really scared before making the payment cause I’ve been scammed twice, they attended so well to me and that made me trust the process and made the payment and provided them with proof, I got my material in less than 10minutes
