PERANCANGAN PROTOTIPE SISTEM INFORMASI MANAJEMEN PPM PADA LPPM UNIVERSITAS TIMOR BERBASIS WEBSITE

The rapid advancement of information technology has encouraged higher education institutions to improve the efficiency of managing Research and Community Service (PPM) activities. This study aims to design and develop a web-based PPM Management Information System prototype for LPPM Universitas Timor. Using the Research and Development (R&D) method, the study involves need analysis, system design, development, testing, and evaluation of the prototype. The system is designed to facilitate proposal management, status tracking, evaluation processes, and reporting. The research findings indicate that the prototype significantly enhances the efficiency of PPM management by providing a user-friendly interface and automated notification features. Testing with end-users, including lecturers and LPPM administrators, yielded positive feedback on ease of use and process transparency. However, improvements are needed in areas such as system performance when handling large documents and the addition of email-based reminder features. In conclusion, the developed prototype serves as a foundational framework for building more comprehensive PPM management systems in the future, supporting efficiency, productivity, and academic objectives at Universitas Timor.
