The Tender and Asset Management System for Office Equipment is a mobile application designed to streamline asset management processes within organisations, from tendering to asset management for office equipment. This paper presents an overview of the prototype's functionalities and features and evaluates its usability and effectiveness. The project's objectives were to enhance efficiency, design a user-friendly interface, and reduce labour-intensive tasks. To realise the project, five phases of methodology were conducted. The phases include project planning, requirement gathering, project design, project development and project evaluation. The evaluation involved a questionnaire to gather participant feedback, providing insights into usability strengths and areas for improvement. This paper concludes with recommendations to enhance the system's usability and support organisations in achieving efficient tender and asset management processes.
