Abstract
The Naval Postgraduate School Public Works Department must monitor labor hours charged by employees to assist in managing the payroll and executing the budget. Entering data into a local system, reconciling locally kept records with official records, and transferring data to official systems is too expensive. This thesis describes the design, analysis, and implementation of a prototype system capable of providing year-to-date labor information with sufficient detail and accuracy to support the Public Works Officer in his budget execution endeavors. It also addresses the problem of integrating the prototype with larger systems which currently require manual input of the same data.
