Abstract
The objective of this research is to develop a research progress tracking system and study the satisfaction of users of the system at Southeast Bangkok University. The system development follows a five-step methodology: feasibility, analysis, design, construction and testing, and dissemination. The sample group includes administrators, researchers, and research staff involved in research tracking. The system was developed using PHP and MySQL for database management, while user satisfaction was evaluated through a questionnaire. The results of the system development show that the system supports the research management process by tracking the status of research projects funded by internal grants, from project approval, progress reporting, and fund disbursement to summarizing research outcomes by faculty and academic year. The system meets the needs of administrators, researchers, and staff by effectively managing research data. The evaluation of the system’s effectiveness, conducted with 10 users, found that the system performed well across several areas, including the Functional Requirement Test, Functional Test, Usability Test, and Security Test. User satisfaction with the system was high overall 4.22, with the highest satisfaction in system display 4.45, followed by system security and access control 4.26, data input functionality 4.17, and system processing 4.00. Therefore, it can be concluded that the developed research progress tracking system is practical, meets user requirements, and effectively supports the internal research fund tracking at Southeast Bangkok University.
