Saputra, Muhammad Hadi, Dristyan, Febri, Handoko, Dedi
Abstract: Abstract: Dazry Harapan Household Industry (IRT) is an SME in Jambi City specializing in the production of laundry perfume and previously relied on manual record-keeping using notebooks. This conventional method created… several issues, including frequent stock recording errors, difficulties in preparing financial reports, delays in identifying minimum stock levels, and the absence of structured historical data. This study aims to develop a web-based digital recording system to improve efficiency, accuracy, and transparency in inventory management. The system was developed using the Agile (Scrum) methodology through three sprints covering the creation of login modules, stock and transaction recording, reporting, minimum-stock notifications, and interface refinement. System design was formulated using use case diagrams, flowcharts, database modeling, and interface prototypes based on the Laravel framework. User Acceptance Testing (UAT) demonstrated high user satisfaction, with 90% of respondents stating that the system is easy to use, 85% reporting faster administrative processes, and 95% acknowledging improved reporting accuracy. The system also increased recording efficiency by 66%—from 3 minutes to 1 minute per transaction—and reduced stock recording errors from 15% to 2% per month. The results indicate that implementing a web-based digital recording system significantly enhances the operational performance of SMEs.             Keywords: SMEs, digital recording system, Agile, inventory management, Laravel.   Abstrak: Industri Rumah Tangga (IRT) Dazry Harapan merupakan UMKM di Kota Jambi yang bergerak pada produksi parfum laundry dan masih menggunakan sistem pencatatan manual berbasis buku tulis.

CRITERIA ANALYSIS OF COURSE PARTICIPANTS USING K-MEANS: A CASE STUDY OF INET PALEMBANG

Muhammad Rasuandi Akbar, Agramanisti Azdy, Rezania, Novaria Kunang, Yesi, Adha Oktarini Saputri , Nurul
Abstract: Abstract: INET Computer Palembang, as a computer training institution, faces difficulties in understanding participant characteristics due to variations in age, educational background, and chosen course packages. This study… udy aims to analyze participant criteria and group them based on similarities using the K-Means Clustering algorithm. The data used were historical records of course participants from 2022 to 2025. The research process followed the CRISP-DM stages, starting from data cleaning and transformation, determining the optimal number of clusters using the Elbow Method, to evaluating cluster quality with the Davies-Bouldin Index. The implementation was carried out using Python and the scikit-learn library. The results show that the optimal number of clusters is k=5 with a Sum of Squared Errors (SSE) value of 1064.66 and a Davies-Bouldin Index (DBI) score of 0.820, indicating good cluster quality. The resulting clustering provides a structured profile of participants and demonstrates that K-Means is effective in segmenting course participants. These findings are expected to assist the institution in designing more targeted training programs. Keywords: clustering; data mining; elbow method; k-means; computer course
