ABSTRACT

‘Industry Certificate Evaluation System’ is a system that has been

developed to facilitate the civil servants who works under the Certification

Scheme of MeSTI. There are some disadvantages using the current manual

evaluation form such as manual marks calculations and cannot produce a

score report. The purpose of developing this system is to solve all the above

problems. The users of this system is the evaluators who carry out the overall

evaluation process and company owners or company representatives who

register their company profile. This system development is developed by

using the database Oracle. As for the programming language, this system

used PL/SQL, JAVA and JSP. Lastly, Eclipse Juno is chosen as the system

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Project Background

(17)

2

However, the documentation of this practice system finds a lot of problems. One of the problem is it takes a long time to only calculate the total marks or scores derived from all the elements. Due to the problems faced, this documentation of practice system need to be replaced with a more systematic system which as well can ease the responsible authority to evaluate the premises in more details.

Industry Certificate Evaluation System (ICES) is developed to assist the concerned parties for marking and recording the elements checklist correctly and quickly. Besides that, ICES can also count the total marks or scores faster and more systematically. The result or report of this total marks will be produced automatically. In consequences, it is not time consuming and can prevent or minimize the calculation errors. In addition, this system is able to keep all the records and data about the company background and profile automatically. All these data are kept orderly and systematically.

1.2 Problem Statement

I. Marking and recording the of elements checklist manually.

II. Calculation of marks is done manually. Calculation of marks involved some elements and each element has their own sub elements. This calculation become complicated and time consuming when calculating the total marks derived from all the elements.

III. Report of the score result is produced manually.

(18)

1.3 Objective

I. Calculate the total marks automatically and efficiently.

The evaluator do not have to calculate the marks for every element manually anymore because this developed system will only calculate the marks for the ticked or chosen elements automatically. The calculation of total marks is faster and more systematic. Marks from each element will be summed up which produce a final score that will be written in the report. Score obtained by every company will be kept in the database according to the actual scoring aspect.

II. Provide the facility to keep all the records and data about the company background and profile automatically.

All the information is kept in the database. Information such as company profile, scores obtained, further actions should be taken and reports of all the companies are kept safely and systematically. Evaluator can find back all the data easily by using the system if they lost the data beforehand.

III. Able to determine the most corrective actions taken to companies.

Every further action taken to a company will be written or displayed in the report. Therefore, it can guide the company to take actions for improvement purpose. Furthermore, the most frequent further action taken to a company through the evaluation from time to time will also be known.

IV. Can produce the total score report faster and automatically.

(19)

V. Can show the total score report for the previous evaluations of the company.

Concerned evaluators can have the report of the scores obtained by the company in the previous evaluations which have been carried out regularly. This also can be printed in the PDF format.

1.4 Scope and Enviroment

This system can be used by :

i. Government officers

This system will be used by the Government Officers who in charge of the evaluation process. Act as an evaluator.

ii. Company Owner

Use this system to enroll their company in the system before the evaluation take place.

1.5 Project Significance

1.6 Expected Output

This system is able to make an automatic and correct calculation. Scores obtained from the calculation will be stated in the report. Other than that, the company profile and corrective actions need to be taken by the company are displayed in the report as well. Evaluator will print out a report for the next process.

I. Evaluation and Marking

[image:24.612.114.582.327.676.2]

Based on the Figure 2.1 and Figure 2.2, the problem encountered is when the evaluator wants to make a correction and hence the evaluator had to delete and will staining the form. The form then will look untidy and it will be difficult to make the evaluation. Besides, the space provided to write down the further actions need to be taken is not enough so it will take some other space. This problem will be difficult for evaluators to mark more carefully and neatly. Imagine if there were more than 50 list of elements that need to be marked then this evaluation form will surely be untidy and disorganized. In fact, this will also burden the evaluator to make the calculation correctly. Therefore, a more systematic system should be developed in order to facilitate the evaluator to assess each company.
