THE APPLICATION OF THE SDLC WATERFALL METHOD IN DEVELOPING AN AUDIT APPLICATION FOR THE SUMEDANG REGENCY INSPECTORATE

Abstract

This study aims to design an information technology-based system to support the efficiency and accuracy of the Sumedang Regency Inspectorate's work in managing audit data and reporting. The main challenges faced by the Inspectorate include unstructured workflows, difficulties in tracking audit data, and a lack of integration in monitoring processes. The research employs the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) with the Waterfall model, which involves five main stages: requirements analysis, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance.The results of this study include a use case diagram and workflow design (flow) that reflect an understanding of the organization's needs. This approach has proven effective in improving efficiency in audit and monitoring processes while providing a solid foundational framework for developing similar systems. The study emphasizes the initial stages of analysis and design as a foundation that supports the overall effectiveness of the system.
