INTRODUCTION The development of an increasingly complex world of technology encourages every individual to be able to apply it in all activities [1]. Information technology is currently a means to improve the performance of an organization [2]; the role of information technology replaces and strengthens the role of humans by presenting information on tasks or processes [3]. The system is an integrated element with the same goal to achieve a goal [4], and the information system becomes a series of components (humans, procedures, data, and technology) that are used to achieve certain goals [5]. Many fields have used information systems to make their work easier [6]. One of the most accurate and precise implementations of information systems is website-based information that utilizes technology and the internet [7]. Basing information is the result of processing data in certain ways so that it is useful for its recipients [8]; information is considered very important because information can increase knowledge, reduce uncertainty and the risk of failure, and can assist leaders in making effective conclusions and decisions and efficient. One of the important pieces of information from the company where this research is conducted is about inputting land observation data in the field. This shows that an agency or company that will build an information system is advised to design a soil observation application in the field first. Field observation applications are records and reports that are coordinated to make field observation information in the field, which is very much needed to help company management. IT Jou Res and Dev,, Vol.3, No.1, January 2018 : 1 - 10 Title of manuscript is short and clear, implies research results (First Author) 2 PT. Anugerah Sumber Makmur Minamas Research Center is a company engaged in the industrial sector that, until now, in inputting data in the field, is still using the manual method. With a system that is still manual, of course, it is not effective. So that it is possible for errors to occur in the implementation of data input which ultimately results in information that is not timely, inaccurate information, and does not match what is needed. From the problems above, it is necessary to design an integrated web-based application to help ease management tasks, especially in terms of soil observation in the PT. Anugerah Sumber Makmur Minamas Research Center. Therefore, I was compelled to compile research entitled "Application of Soil Observation in the Field of PT. Anugerah Sumber Makmur Minamas Research Center. "It is hoped that by making a detailed application, users can easily obtain the desired information more quickly and accurately by using this application. 2. RESEARCH METHOD 2.1. Method of collecting data The data collection stage is a process to describe the data obtained to solve problems at the time of making the application. The data collection stage is carried out in 2 ways, namely: 1. Literature Study At this stage, a literature study is carried out consisting of journals, theses, books, and previous research papers [9], including reports that are directly related; in this method, the author studies supporting books and related documents and can be used as a reference for conducting research. And describe the discussion [10]. 2. Interview Carried out to the head of the news sector and administrative staff regarding the planning of the design and implementation of the new management information system to determine the needs and feasibility of the system to be designed [11]. At the interview stage, the author had a dialogue or question and answered several people or employees at PT. x regarding the application that will be made so that data is obtained according to the actual situation. 2.2. Sprint Design Method The Design Sprint is a time-bound framework that uses the concept of Design Thinking (DT) to help a group of people create a new system, service, or feature. The Design Sprint consists of 5 stages, namely understand, cover, divergence, prototype, and test [12]. Figure 1. Example of the Design Sprint method In developing the system using the design sprint method, namely: 1. Understanding At this stage, the interview process is carried out and conducts interviews benchmarked against similar applications in order to find out the advantages and disadvantages of these applications [13]. 2. Diverge IT Jou Res and Dev,, Vol.3, No.1, January 2018 : 1 - 10 Title of manuscript is short and clear, implies research results (First Author) 3 At this stage, the process of finding solutions to the problem of input data will be carried out, aiming to collect solutions that are considered capable of overcoming the existing problems [14] 3. Decide At this stage, together with employees discussing by issuing ideas submitted, all ideas are developed into a new idea to solve the problem [15]. 4. Prototype At the application stage, the process of forming and implementing ideas and focusing on application development [16]. At this stage, a demo is also carried out for employees so that the results are as expected. 5. Validate This is the stage of testing the appearance and features that are made and then reviewing with the client the advantages and disadvantages of these features. In addition to testing aimed at users, it can also be aimed at stakeholders or an expert in a particular field [17] 3. RESULTS AND ANALYSIS The following is a discussion of system analysis that runs up to application implementation. 1. Running System Analysis Analysis of the running system can be seen at: Figure 2. Running system Figure 2 is an ongoing system where employees and admins input land observation data manually. 2. Proposed System Analysis The analysis of the proposed system can be seen in Figure 3. Figure 3. The proposed system Figure 3 is the system proposed by the author is an integrated application that helps the process of inputting data more quickly, accurately, and precisely in a computerized manner so that it can produce reports that can be printed directly when needed.
