Abstract:
Currently, the selected company faced a problem in taking very much time
consuming in routine operations such as data filing, data seeking, data losing, invoicing,
accuracy of data, and reporting. This master project then aims to develop an information
system in order to replace the existing manual operations by computer based
operations so that the mentioned problems can be decreased or remedied. The visual
data management and visual basic 6.0 were used to develop the proposed information
system. Since the developed information system was designed based on real user
requirements, then it is very easy to implement. Based on three months of
implementation, the results obviously show that using the proposed information system
can significantly reduce timing in all operations. The data filing time can be reduced
greatly from 10.02 to 3.10 minutes or 69.06%, the data seeking time can be reduced
dramatically from 25.35 to 1.10 minutes or 95.66%, invoicing time can be reduced from
3.03 to 0.60 minutes or 80.19%, and total operations time can be reduced significantly
from 38.40 to 4.80 minutes which is 87.50% roughly. Furthermore, the data losing
problem can remedied, the reporting can be performed faster than ever, and the paper
works in the selected company can be reduced as well.
