Abstract
The purposes of the research were to 1) develop a sand transportation management system for industrial sand factories using GPS technology 2) evaluate the system's efficiency, and 3) assess user acceptance of the system. The study involved 55 participants from industrial sand factories in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Province, comprising order management staff, transportation drivers, and order management supervisors. The system development followed the Waterfall Model that encompassing five stages: requirements analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and deployment.
The research findings showed that the developed system consisted of 5 modules, including customer information management, order management, route planning, transportation status tracking, and transportation performance analysis. The efficiency evaluation showed that the system performed at the "highest" level (mean score = 4.73), particularly in terms of accuracy in tracking trucks and user authentication, which scored the highest. Similarly, user acceptance was rated at the "highest" level (mean score = 4.55), with users highly satisfied with the system's ease of use and usefulness. In conclusion, the GPS-based sand transportation management system significantly improved transportation efficiency, reduced costs, and enhanced user satisfaction. The system demonstrates potential for further application and development in other industries.
