THE NEW KCSE PROJECT GUIDELINES PART 6: INTRODUCTION

​The INTRODUCTION (the new kcse project guidelines)

Introduction aims to address the issue or problem being examined.
Describe Babati Urban Council fully so that the examiner clearly understands how it operates with a bias to problems, and how it connects to the title of your project.
In this section, indicate that a problem exists in a descriptive manner.

NB: Where applicable, you can give the historical background using the information on the question paper.

Example:

Babati Urban Council is a local authority that provides services to its residents. For it to provide these services, it raises funds through collecting House rent, charging residents for Garbage collection, collecting licensing fees from businesses, collecting money from vendors who transact business in the Open air markets, charging Sewerage connection fee, and also collecting money from all vehicles and carts parked within the urban centers.
In addition, most of the data processing activities of the council are done manually.

Some of these activities include:

1. Recording of money collected from residents.
2. Keeping of revenue collection records.
3. Processing of customers’ orders.
4. Generating of reports especially those required by the management, etc.

The council wishes to replace the inefficient manual revenue collection system through developing a computer-based system that would ease the input and processing of data about revenue collection, and provide facilities for updating stored data.
The system is also expected to produce a variety of reports such as receipts that are to be used for managerial purposes.
