Rancang Bangun Website Pemesanan Online dan Stock Barang Menggunakan Metode Waterfall di Rumah Makan Minang Ampek Pangeran

The current advancement of information technology encourages many culinary business owners to adopt web-based systems. This strategic step is taken to enhance service effectiveness and streamline overall business management. Unfortunately, Rumah Makan Minang Ampek Pangeran still relies on conventional methods for its daily operations. Orders are received through walk-ins or text messages, while food stock is recorded manually in notebooks. This practice frequently causes operational issues, such as susceptibility to recording errors, slow information flow, and difficulty in monitoring food availability. Therefore, this study aims to design and develop an online ordering website integrated with a stock management system. The system development adopts the Waterfall method, encompassing requirement analysis, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. Data was collected through direct observation and in-depth interviews with the owner and staff. The main features of the website include online ordering services, menu management, customer databases, and food stock management. Testing results demonstrate that this website successfully facilitates customers in placing orders and significantly assists the management. The management can now monitor menu availability more neatly, accurately, and systematically, resulting in vastly improved service efficiency. This system also reduces the risk of recording errors typically found in manual processes. In conclusion, the implementation of this online ordering and stock management system is highly feasible to support the daily operations of the restaurant.
