Kabataan-Konek: A Barangay Web-Based Youth Information Management System with Data Analytics
International Journal of Science and Applied Information Technology · 2025
Cities are divided into barangays, the smallest local government units managed by Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) officials. Barangay officials oversee community welfare, basic services, and local projects, while SK officials focus on youth development through programs and initiatives. However, managing resident data is currently a manual process, requiring SK officials to visit households, record details on paper, transfer them to Word documents, and print them. This labor-intensive approach is both time- consuming and inefficient, particularly when sorting data by specific criteria like age groups. To address these challenges, a study was conducted to develop a more efficient system to streamline these processes. A web-based application made as a solution where residents can create accounts and input their personal details through a user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI). This system implemented features such as data analytics and surveys to support project evaluation. Additionally, key functionalities such as QR code integration for Barangay SK clearance ensure its authenticity, project monitoring and evaluation tools, a resident portal, a dashboard for SK Chairperson and SK Kagawad, as well as modules for announcements, certificate requests, and a history log to ensure data privacy and security. This system aimed to make administrative tasks more effective and reliable. The testing results have shown that the software meets ISO 25010 standards for software quality, which has an average of 95.63% passed. The system demonstrates functional suitability with high success rates, efficient performance under varying loads, and reliability with minimal downtime.In conclusion, the system is a high-quality solution that effectively addresses the needs of the barangay. Its robust design and thorough testing confirm its readiness for deployment, ensuring long-term usability and reliability.
