In order to conduct the lab session successfully, the department are required to purchase all the equipments, fixed assets and consumables to be used in conducting the research or experiment. Currently, the documents related to the equipments and consumables are stored in file cabinet and technicians and lecturers need to refer to the person-in-charge manually to get the required information.
