Analisis dan Desain Aplikasi Web dan Mobile Supply Chain Management untuk Mendukung Distribusi Komoditas Padi Paska-Panen
Abstract: From the supply
chain management (SCM) perspective, the low level of information accessibility
to rice commodities availability has been one of the major postharvest
distribution-related problems. This issue potentially cause delay in delivery,
product scarcity and eventually financial loss for stakeholders. Previous
studies concerned more with web and mobile applications for distribution of
production means applicable for pre-harvest stage. This study focuses on the
development of modest web and mobile SCM applications for distribution of
post-harvest rice commodities. The characteristics of these applications are
capable of addressing problems faced by those involved in such product delivery
system. Web application was designed using Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP)
through Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) towards a service at Uniform
Resource Locator (URL). Mobile application was designed using Java 2 Micro
Edition (J2ME) to build a smart client loaded onto handphone. Comparison of
system simulation on sofware requirement specification (SRS), use case diagram
was presented in tabular form enabling users for need adjustment. Output of
this research included user interface model and application prototype
introduced to client and user to obtain feedback. The tabular SRS measure using
use case showed on average a degree of appropriateness of 92%. User
satisfaction level averaged 4.345 (out of 5) suggesting a good performance of
the designed applications. Utilizing internet and handphone technology, the application
models have fulfilled theoretical requirements and have adequately responded
problems relating to the poor information accessibility in an SCM-based,
postharvest rice distribution system, hence are worthy of being called as a
modest web and mobile SCM.
