ABSTRACT
In the existing system in the Institute of Management and technology, data about Students and Staff are obtained, processed and stored manually which results in problems such as error in generated reports, reports not being timely produced and a host of others. This project work is targeted at computerizing these processes so as to provide the management with accurate and timely reports for effective decision making. Different methods of data collection methods ranging from making of enquiries to study of relevant documents were used to get relevant information about the existing system. The programming language used to develop this software is visual Basic 6.0 it is expected that this software will go a long way in increasing the effectiveness and efficiency of those at the helm of affairs of management of the Institute of Management and Technology (IMT) Enugu
ORGANIZATION OF THE WORK.
This Project work is organized in seven chapters for the purpose of clarity and easy understanding.
Chapter One has to do with Introduction of the study and under this we have statement of the problem, aims and objectives of the study, the purpose, significance, scope, delimitation, limitationconstraints, assumption of the study and definition of terms.
Chapter two is the review of relevant literature.
Chapter three is description and analysis of the existing system.
Chapter four has to do with the design of the new system, and under it we have the design standard, output and input specification and design, procedure chart e.t.c.
Chapter five is implementation of the designed or developed software.
Chapter six has to do with the documentation of the program.
Chapter seven has to do with recommendation, summary and conclusions.

CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Executive information systems are flexible tools that provide deep and broad information support and analytic capabilities for a wide range of executive decision making.
It has been observed that filling in forms manually and managing these forms and relevant data has some shortcomings associated with them. These include:
