ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF WEB-BASED PROJECT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

In the dynamic landscape of technology-driven business environments, software development companies need to adeptly address ambiguous customer needs. Flexibility in plans is crucial to accommodate unforeseen requirements, as changes in project requirements can inevitably impact project planning, potentially hindering project progress. A notable challenge currently faced by the company is the absence of a monitoring system for ongoing IT projects. This research develops an information system designed to streamline IT projects, managing tasks for programmers and monitoring project budgets from acceptance to completion. In this research, the waterfall model is employed for the development of the project management system, and black box testing is utilized to test the application system. The findings indicate that this project management system can offer the following benefits: (1) Efficient project management by overseeing budget, clients, projects, and task-based scope division. (2) Task scheduling from initiation to project completion. (3) Notification of project managers (PMs) and programmers to keep them informed about ongoing project tasks and progress. (4) Expenditure monitoring through graphs that compare the budget with actual expenditures.
