Integrated Quality Assurance Information System for Higher Education: A Web-Based Platform for SPMI, HRIS, SIAKAD Integration, and Accreditation Readiness

Abstract

Quality assurance in higher education depends on continuous evidence management, yet SPMI, SIAKAD, HRIS, AMI, and accreditation data are often fragmented across separate repositories. This study designs and evaluates a web-based quality assurance information system that links the PPEPP cycle with BAN-PT/LAM accreditation preparation. Following Design Science Research Methodology, the artifact integrates SPMI workflows, SIAKAD/HRIS data mapping, LKPS/LED evidence management, readiness dashboards, role-based access control, audit trails, and accreditation export packages. Evaluation in a staging environment used black-box testing, RBAC testing, API smoke testing, integration-flow testing, and UAT with 10 stakeholders. Operational readiness increased from a 23% baseline to 82%, LED preparation time decreased from 21 days to 6.7 days (68%), 42 of 45 API endpoints passed (93.3%), and the SUS score reached 81.2. These results indicate improved traceability and operational readiness, but they should not be interpreted as a direct prediction of accreditation rank.
