DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A COMPUTERIZED PROCEDURE FOR PRIVATIZATION OF A CORPORATE ENTERPRISE
(A CASE STUDY OF NITEL LTD ENUGU)
ABSTRACT
The focus on Privatization of Corporate enterprises is relatively recent in Nigeria. The prominence in economic programs of most developing countries since the 1980’s is due to the need to reduce Public sector deficits and financial losses arising from gross inefficiencies of the public Enterprises. Privatization attracts substantial amount of foreign investment inflows and new technological growth bringing about economic growth and reformation. The effective implementation of privatization program of a Corporate Enterprise such as Nitel LTD requires a computer-based system.
This research work is aimed at designing and implementing an automated system that would eliminate some of the problem and draw backs associated with the manual procedures for the privatization of a corporate enterprise.
ORGANIZATION OF WORK
This project is sub-divided into seven chapters; the first chapter is introduction, which includes back ground of the study, statement of the problems, purpose of study, aims and objectives, scope and limitation, definition of terms.
The second chapter deals with literature review.
The third chapter was concerned with description and analysis of the existing system.
Chapter four is concerned with the design of the new system, system specification and information requirement of new system.
Chapter five deals with implementation of the system.
Finally, the seventh chapter dealt with summary, conclusion and recommendations.

INTRODUCTION
Privatization involves redefining the role of the government by having at disengage from those activities which are best handled by the private sector, with the overall objective of achieving economic efficiency, conceptually, the commercialization and privatization degree (FRN, 1988) perceive privatization as :-
“the transfer of government owned shareholding in designated enterprises to the private shareholders, comprising individuals and corporate bodies”.
The success of the program depends on a well-designed privatization strategy, which includes:
The above strategies cannot be achieved manually; many privatization programs have suffered from poor design, in adequate preparation, and weak implementation. This is clearly evidenced by the long average time its complete transaction. It is based on these drawbacks that the need for computerization arise.
The study will focus on the application of computerized procedures for privatization of a corporate enterprise using the Nigerian Telecommunications Limited (NITEL LTD) as a case study.
Although the problems associated with the creation of corporate enterprise have not always been clearly stated. In spite of the bug’s investment in public enterprise in Nigeria, their senses could not meet the demand aspiration of the populace; the report of Onosode Presidential commission (1984) reveals that corporate enterprises are infested with some problems. In the case of NITEL LTD the following problems were obsessed in relation to the on going privatization exercise in the country.
The aims and objectives of the project work are:
The scope of the project emphasizes on the area of computerized procedures for the privatization of a corporate enterprises, computerized procedures in birlt to owning out a single activity at a time, that is the human activity of descending the most viable project among a giving set of attractive.
Therefore, the study will focus on the application of computer on the privatization of the Nigerian Telecommunications limited (NITEL LTD).
My purpose is to design a database that will computerize the procedures used in privatizing a corporate enterprise. Secondly analyzing the current system to determine the objectives and detect the various impeachments in achieving them.
The following are some factors, which are acting as an impeachment or constraints to the progress of the project work, these are;
Due to insufficient information the following assumptions were considered:-
This work will attempt to define some basic terminology and also explain various terms that will be used in this study.
