ABSTRACT
Today managers in the corporate world face many problems related to decision making based on the huge pool of
data generated from various offices or branches located at different localities. The decision-making process is very
important as decisions taken by management could make a company either overtake or stay within reach of its
competitors. This problems arise as there is lack of mobility and no proper method to represent the data in an
efficient manner. The solution to this is an Android application which will be easily available to the managers to
enable them to take instant decisions as they are available on smart phones. The objective of this paper is to propose
a system which retrieves summarized data from a central database then processes and displays that information on
an android device so as to aid managers in their decision making process.
