Web Application Development for Efficient and Paperless Disbursement of Office Supplies. Case study 9th Armoured Regiment, 4th Infantry Division

Abstract

  Inefficient manual recording of office supplies disbursement often introduces errors and impedes the tracking of withdrawn items, causing delays and unnecessary costs. In response to these challenges, the researcher developed a web application for office supplies disbursement, targeting increased efficiency and reduced processing time. The study, conducted with the 9th Armoured Regiment, 4th Infantry Division, showcased a substantial decrease in processing time compared to traditional paper-based methods. Previously, each session took 5.8 to 12.3 minutes, totaling 87 to 184.5 minutes daily. With the web application, the time per session reduced to just 3 minutes, totaling 45 minutes daily—a significant 48.28% decrease. Furthermore, it achieved savings in monthly notebook paper costs, totaling 140 baht and amounting to 1,680 baht annually.
