for organizations in any industry to adopt technological solutions to streamline organizational practices and increased productivity. This paper will explore the adoption of a database management system at a hypothetical

look at a hypothetical scenario involving a typically small to medium sized enterprise that would not typically be seen as reliant upon information systems: a light trucking company based in
the United States, known as Huffman Trucking. Huffman Trucking was established in 1936 and took off during the 1940s when the Second World War created a significant demand for private
