RANCANG BANGUN SISTEM INFORMASI PENGAJUAN PROPOSAL SKRIPSI BERBASIS MOBILE MENGGUNAKAN QR CODE

Abstrak

Pengajuan proposal skripsi merupakan salah satu tahapan penting dalam proses penyelesaian studi mahasiswa. Pada Program Studi Sistem Informasi Universitas Harapan Medan, proses pengajuan masih menghadapi kendala berupa pengumpulan berkas secara manual, verifikasi yang memerlukan waktu, kesulitan memantau status pengajuan secara real-time, serta validasi persetujuan yang masih bergantung pada dokumen fisik. Penelitian ini bertujuan merancang dan membangun sistem informasi pengajuan proposal skripsi berbasis Mobile yang mengintegrasikan proses pengajuan, unggah dokumen, verifikasi administrasi, penetapan dosen pembimbing, review proposal, pelacakan status, dan validasi persetujuan menggunakan QR Code. Pengembangan sistem menggunakan metode Rapid Application Development (RAD) dengan tahapan analisis kebutuhan, desain sistem, implementasi, integrasi dan pengujian, serta pemeliharaan. Implementasi menggunakan Laravel sebagai backend, Flutter sebagai framework aplikasi Mobile, MySQL sebagai basis data, dan Bootstrap untuk mendukung antarmuka web. Pengujian dilakukan menggunakan Black Box Testing terhadap 26 skenario pada delapan kelompok fungsi utama. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan seluruh skenario berstatus valid dan fungsi utama berjalan sesuai kebutuhan. Sistem mampu membantu digitalisasi proses pengajuan, memberikan transparansi status kepada mahasiswa, serta menyediakan validasi dokumen berbasis QR Code.

Thesis proposal submission is an important stage in students’ academic completion process. In the Information Systems Study Program at Universitas Harapan Medan, the submission process still faces problems such as manual document collection, time-consuming verification, difficulty monitoring submission status in real time, and approval validation that still depends on physical documents. This study aims to design and develop a Mobile-based thesis proposal submission information system that integrates submission, document upload, administrative verification, supervisor assignment, proposal review, status tracking, and approval validation using QR Code. The system was developed using the Rapid Application Development (RAD) method through requirements analysis, system design, implementation, integration and testing, and maintenance. Laravel was used as the backend, Flutter as the Mobile application framework, MySQL as the database, and Bootstrap to support the web interface. Black Box Testing was conducted on 26 scenarios across eight main function groups. The results show that all scenarios were valid and the main functions operated according to the specified requirements. The system supports the digitalization of the submission process, provides transparent status information for students, and enables QR Code-based document validation.
