#3. Tentative Problem Definition

Sri Lanka National Blood Bank is the institution, which provides Blood Transfusion Services as blood collecting and storing around the whole country. To make these services more efficient and effective, there are blood centers calling “clusters” based on locations, around the country. Those clusters are acting different roles, such as some are collecting but not storing and some others testing and also some clusters are collecting, storing and testing of blood. In this project the main focus is on blood collecting clusters. Posters, banners, cutouts are using frequently, when organizing a mobile blood collection session, for advertising purposes. But these methods are highly expensive and sometime useless because they are not focusing on target audiences. And also other important fact is that, these methods are not environmental friendly. In addition to that, service provider may want to send thanking letters to donor, after donation of blood, by snail mail. This process also consumes more time and more human resources.4.
