Dissertation note: Undergraduate Thesis (BSOA) - Office Administration. Camarines Sur Polytechnic Colleges, 2025. Abstract: This study aims to determine the current inventory management practices of local weavers in Buhi, explore the challenges they face, assess the level of awareness and utilization of inventory technologies among the local weavers, identify possible technological solutions or program-based interventions that may support sustainable development. Specific concerns include the profile of the respondents in terms of age, type, of weaving business, available resources, technological adoption, production capacity, income, and location. The study also examined the issues encountered in inventory management, such as raw material shortages, demand forecasting, and financial limitations, as well as possible interventions to improve efficiency and sustainability. The participants were 38 selected weaving businesses in Buhi. The researchers utilized a mixed-method design in this study. Key findings revealed that most weaving businesses are operated by older women, have limited financial resources, and rely on traditional methods of inventory management. Respondents reported that inadequate access to technology and sudden changes in demand often disrupt production and income stability. However, the study also identified opportunities for improvement through digital tools and community-based programs that can strengthen resource management and market access. The study recommends that the weaving community, LGUs, NGOs, and CSPC collaborate to promote weaving in the community and encourage youth and all genders involvement, enhance inventory management through simple spreadsheets, provide financial support and adopt program-based interventions to help local weavers strengthen their businesses and preserve their craft.
