Developing the integrated SIMPAKDOS and its impact on employees’ intention to promote academic position

Abstract

This study aims at developing an integrated Management Information System for Lecturers Credit Score Assessment (SIMPAKDOS). This research is an R&D research conducted in March-September 2018. The system itself is developed by conducting FAST method (Framework for the Application of Systems Techniques). Data collection methods used are interviews, questionnaires, and documentation. The data analysis method used are descriptive analysis, FGD (focus group discussion), and linier regression analysis. The development of Integrated SIMPAKDOS has been finished with the FAST approach. The results of the needs analysis show that the lecturers and staffs need Integrated SIMPAKDOS with approved content and conditions. The logical design prepared has been through FGD, expert validation, and trials to obtain input and validation from various stakeholders. System validation is carried out in two stages (development expert validation and system content expert validation) and the results show that Integrated SIMPAKDOS is valid and feasible to use. The test results also show that the interest of lecturers applying for promotion is included in the very high category, which is as many as 65% after using SIMPAKDOS. The use of Integrated SIMPAKDOS proved to have a positive and significant effect on the intention of lecturers to propose rank promotions.
