The Web-based Information System Grombyang E-commerce

Abstract

E-commerce is one of the most developed concepts in the field of information technology. The concept of e-commerce provides many conveniences and advantages when compared to conventional shopping concepts, including all the information desired by consumers can be accessed in more detail, quickly without being limited by place and time, and the transaction process can be made much easier. So that the application of this system will greatly facilitate and benefit many parties, both consumers and sellers. E-commerce utilises information and communication technology to facilitate commercial transactions, which makes it different from conventional trade that usually involves physical interaction between buyers and sellers. The rise of e-commerce today is a result of the desire for greater efficiency and convenience. E-commerce offers convenience to consumers in fulfilling their needs. E-commerce is an easy way for buyers and sellers to conduct business without wasting space or time. It can be done anytime and anywhere through the internet network system. Although most purchases are still made through traditional channels, ecommerce continues to grow rapidly and change the way many companies do business. In 2010, e-commerce represented about 6 per cent of all retail sales in the United States, and is growing at 12 per cent per year[1]. This research aims to provide an explanation of the grombyang e-commerce website system information in the form of both an overview and a detailed and thorough explanation. This can make it easier for developers to design and implement effective and efficient solutions. In addition to users and device developers, this document can be used by other related parties, such as project managers, system analysts, and security, to understand the objectives, limitations, and system requirements that must be met. In addition, this document serves as a guideline for software development as well as an important reference to ensure that the project runs well overall. With this journal, it is expected that software development becomes more focused and directed and does not cause ambiguity for the developer. This research uses qualitative, experimental, descriptive, case study data collection methods and applies Rapid Application Development (RAD) and Agile SDLC methods in the process of designing and building the system. The system design annotation technique uses Unifi ed Modelling Language (UML) which functions to describe the structure, behaviour, and interactions in the system. The results showed that the Grombyang e-commerce website system designed and developed using Agile and R&D methods proved to be effective and efficient in facilitating buying and selling transactions of electronic goods. This is evidenced by a significant increase in the number of users, transactions, and business profits after the implementation of the system. The study also found that the features that users liked the most were ease of navigation, speed of access, transaction security, and friendly customer service. These findings suggest that an effective and efficient e-commerce website system should have complete and easy-to-use features. Based on these findings, it is recommended to e-commerce developers and business owners to use Agile and R&D methods in developing their website systems. This research also makes a new contribution by analysing the business processes and business actors in the Grombyang e-commerce system. The results of this analysis can be used as a reference for other e-commerce developers and business owners to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of their systems.
