Background Study
Natural Lee is the case study that is considered for this report. This is a farm that grows
organic vegetables, produces honey, fruits and nuts and grows decorative plants. This organic
farm is run by Phil and his wife Wendy. This farm produces organic vegetables and fruits and
booking is mostly done as manual system. In the present system, the booking is done over the
phone when the customer calls Phil or his wife. Sometime, the customer also prefers self-pickup
of the goods they ordered over the phone. Goods are also delivered to their home as per their
requirement. In that case, employees associated with the farm makes the home delivery.

based on their previous purchase from Natural Lee. Phil manages the farm production and his
wife has responsibility to manage the marketing side.
