Students of the Faculty of Computer Science Universitas Brawijaya (FILKOM UB) who are members of the Group 17 Real Work Lecture (KKN) consisting of nine students are guided by Nanang Yudi Setiawan, ST., M.Kom and the village coordinator, Shafa Al Afghany Al Rahman, and the Coordinator of Service Activities, Nata Nirwasita Rasendriya plans to help the government/village apparatus of Ngijo, Karangploso District, Malang Regency with the village administration mailing system automation program.
The purpose of the program launched by Group 17 is to make the correspondence process at the village office shorter and faster, and village officials will find it easier to operate the applications that have been made. The correspondence system runs in Ngijo Village will be offline and will be connected directly to the population database owned by the village apparatus and if there are residents who submit or manage correspondence, the system only requires Resident Registration Number (NIK) and the official letter format will then be filled in automatically (letter content, letter number) so that it can be directly processed for signature by the Head of Village or local official.
The progress that has been made by Group 17 at this time is that they have just completed gathering needs from village officials through PC checking, interviews and needs analysis. The next activity to be carried out is repairing device connections and starting system development. The target for the program completion is scheduled for mid-September and continued with implementation in village officials.
Group 17 also has obstacles in running the program, where the obstacles obtained are that they still cannot decide on making applications via desktop or in the form of a website that is connected to local-host only (does not require an internet connection), and Group 17 still has not held a coordination meeting with other villages on the same topic and activity to consider the results of the product plans created.
Absolutely, the program being carried out by Group 17 gets positive feedback from the people of Ngijo Village, every time they come to the location they are always warmly welcomed by village officials and local residents when conducting interviews and need analysis. The village officials are also very cooperative in assisting the program planned by group 17, and hopefully the program that will be implemented in Ngijo village will run smoothly and be completed on time.
