Running Head:TOUR AND TRAVEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
1.
A Tour and Travel Management System is a system that could be very useful in the Northern Territory.
The Northern Territory is a dusty and a desolate of desert. Despite the desert nature of the area there are
waterways that churns with crocodiles, there are ochre sands of the Red Centre, there are waterfalls
and the untamed natural splendor and the spiritual allure. There are beautiful destinations such as
Darwin, Kakadu National Park, Katherine, Litchfield National Park, Tiwi islands, Uluru, Kings
Canyon, Kata Tjuta (the Olgas), Alice Springs and many more beautiful scenarios. These beautiful
scenes tend to attract more tourists. According to Whipple ( 2104), it will be easier if the government
set a system where local and the international tourists will be making to reservations online. These will
help track the records and profits gained from these beautiful sites. The government will also be in
position to tell most tourists are from which locations. Also the sites that are being visit frequently will
also be identified using the Tour and Travel Management System. (Chiang and Chen, 2014) This
system will help in making the reservation easier for the people involved. A lot of data will be collected
using the system. Hurley says (2012), the data can then be analyzed and displayed using graphical
representation.
The project should be funded because it will bring more tourist to the Northern territory. If the system
is advertised people to used for booking trips, then a lot of revenue will be generated. The total funds
required are an estimate of $75,000 . The government should fund $40,000 for the software
development and the hotels and the sites management in the Northern Territory should fund $35,000
for the project management and marketing costs. Parry says(2014), the graphs will help in identifying
the trend of business in the Northern Territory and also they will help the management teams in the
Northern Territory and the government to make valid decision regarding the area. Below is a business
case for the system development project.
