This makes it a challenge for a private university to obtain funding independently in managing and maintaining assets of that size. It is necessary to develop an information system that could provide information input and information output facilities managed by the faculty and laboratory managers at the unit level of study programs and faculties, to be further reported as information to institutions and stakeholders. The researcher wants to make it a research goal, by designing and developing a Laboratory Information System (SILab) at the University of PGRI Semarang, which is validly tested according to the design results and is reliable or proven to be used well by users through user response tests. Keywords— laboratory management; information systems; research methods research and development; unified modeling language; system development design. I. INTRODUCTION IKIP PGRI Semarang, which in 2014 transformed into Universitas PGRI Semarang, has made extraordinarily significant development. Starting from the addition of the number of faculties, study programs, educational staff, and supporting facilities such as laboratories. According to the results of the latest survey summarized in the matrix of the distribution of laboratory facilities owned by this university, it was recorded that there were approximately 64 laboratories, spread over 8 faculties including the Postgraduate Faculty (Post) 1 Laboratory, the Faculty of Social Sciences and Sports Education (FIPSKR) 16 Laboratory, Faculty of Mathematics Education, Natural Sciences and Information Technology (FPMIPATI) 18 Laboratories, Faculty of Language and Literature Education (FPBS) 3 Laboratories, Faculty of Engineering and Informatics (FTI) 19 Laboratories, Faculty of Law (FH) 1 Laboratory, Faculty of Economics (FE) ) 1 Laboratory, Professional Development Institute (LPP) 3 Laboratory and SMA Laboratory, PGRI University Semarang 4 Laboratory. This is a challenge in itself, considering that if it is not managed properly, then the facilities which were originally an asset of the institution become a burden in itself. Considering that PGRI Semarang University is a private institution, which obtains its funding independently. From this, a thought emerged that it was deemed necessary to manage such a large asset, it was highly recommended or an effective system for providing information reporting was needed, so that the potential of the laboratory could be well organized and well-structured for its management and development plan. This developed system will later be able to provide informed input and information output facilities which are managed by the faculty and laboratory managers at the unit level of study programs and faculties, to be subsequently reported as information to institutions and stakeholders (both students and lecturers as users, or the general public who requires cooperation in special laboratory tests in universities according to their needs). mailto:arifwibisono@upgris.ac.id mailto:sudargo@upgris.ac.id mailto:ikamenarianti@upgris.ac.id mailto:wijayanto@upgris.ac.id Development of Integrated Laboratory Management Information System SISFORMA: Journal of Information Systems (e-Journal) Vol.9 | No 2 |Th. 2022 ISSN 2442-7888 (online) DOI 10.24167/sisforma.v9i2.4359 47 Literature Review Several research journal libraries and relevant sourcebooks were used to support this research, including; 1. The research of Hisyam Wahid Lutfi and Berliana Kusuma Riasti (Luthfi & Riasti, 2013) entitled "Information Systems for Maintenance and Laboratory Inventory at SMK Negeri 1 Rembang is Web-Based" which uses the Unified Modeling Language (UML) design, PHP and SQL programming languages, resulted in an information system that can be implemented in good laboratory management. 2. Research by Mahendra Pratama, Muhammad Komarudin, and Helmy Fitriawan (Pratama et al., 2014) entitled "Design of an Integrated Electrical Engineering Laboratory Information System, University of Lampung Web-Based" which uses a modified waterfall research method, system design using the ER-Diagram model, PHP programming language and PostgreSQL database and system functional testing, with test results valid or following system design. 3.

Novendra Adisaputra Sinaga's research (Sinaga, 2018) entitled "Development of a Web-Based Computer Laboratory Information System (Case Study of the Indonesian Business Polytechnic)" uses a DF- Diagram system design based on business process analysis, PHP and MySQL programming languages, the resulting system valid information can be used according to the design. 5. Al Antoni Akhmad's research (Akhmad, 2010) entitled "Creating a Web-Based Energy Conversion Laboratory Information System Using Open Sources PHP and AuraCMS Programs" uses an evolutionary research method that starts directly from field studies to determine system requirements and continues directly with interface creation. and writing PHP scripts. Direct testing based on system requirements analysis. As a result, the system runs, but it is not perfect and improvements still need to be made according to user input. Sources of literature in the form of books, which are used to support research, include; 1. Books written or adapted by M. Firman Arif, S.Kom., M.Kom. (M. FIRMAN ARIF, 2019) entitled "Information System Analysis and Design" Delivered that a good information system must implement a system life cycle (system life circle), this is important so that after the system is implemented or implemented it still can be redeveloped according to system requirements or business requirements. As for the design development tool or information system design, using the DF-Diagram model 2. The book written or adapted by Muhamad Muslihudin and Oktafianto (Muslihudin et al., nd) entitled "Analysis and Design of Information Systems Using Structured Models and UML" Conveys that the quality of the information displayed in an information system is very dependent on the analysis and design of the information system can be a decision Development of Integrated Laboratory Management Information System SISFORMA: Journal of Information Systems (e-Journal) Vol.9 | No 2 |Th. 2022 ISSN 2442-7888 (online) DOI 10.24167/sisforma.v9i2.4359 48 support system (decision support system) in a business process while the analysis of structured information systems mainly has several models including the DF-Diagram model, Object-Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD), Unified Modeling Language (UML) and Use Case Diagrams, all of which have their advantages and disadvantages. 3. Books written or adapted by Adyatanata Lubism, S.Kom., M.Kom. (Lubis, 2016) entitled “Basic Database” Explain how the database design process uses ER-Diagram according to the needs of the data/information transaction process. 4. Indra Kharisma Raharjana's book or adaptation (Raharjana, 2017) entitled "Information System Development Using the AGILE Methodology" Explains how to develop an information system or software using the evolutionary method or the latest AGILE which is based or focused on the work process that is usually carried out iterative, where rules and solutions are agreed upon by collaboration between teams in an organized and structured manner. This means that the information system developed is adaptive, or developed and can be redeveloped as needed. 5. The book or adaptation of Mei Prabowo, M.Com (Prabowo, nd) entitled "Information System Development Methodology" Says that in addition to the method of developing information systems using the AGILE development model, there is also another method of developing information systems or software, namely the Rapid Method. Application Development and Spiral method. As for testing, the three of them can use several methods, namely using performance testing, system testing, unit testing, or integration testing II. METHOD To achieve the research objectives, software development research methods or information systems development methods are used, namely the AGILE evolutionary method, as for the information system design model using Use Case Diagrams which are then interpreted more clearly using Context Diagrams and database design using Entity-Relationship Diagrams (ER). -Diagram). For testing using performance testing based on the design and user response. The research method that the researcher applies is Agile, this method was chosen because the Agile method is faster in making changes or system development Figure 1. Agile Method 1. Planning The next stage is the stage of gathering requirements by focusing on: hardware, software, and Brainware, Brainware itself includes making systems by translating designs or drawings into programming languages, validating and testing the system when the system is ready to use, and performing maintenance on the system so that the system can run. run as needed. 2. Design This stage consists of how the system will be built in other words planning software solutions. 3. Coding This stage is the stage of code generation, namely translating the image or design into an algorithm that can be implemented into a programming language. 4. Test Development of Integrated Laboratory Management Information System SISFORMA: Journal of Information Systems (e-Journal) Vol.9 | No 2 |Th. 2022 ISSN 2442-7888 (online) DOI 10.24167/sisforma.v9i2.4359 49 Next is the final stage in making software or system. After doing the analysis, design, and coding, the finished system will be used by the user. Then the software that has been made must be maintained regularly. In performance testing which is based on the design, the researcher focuses on two main modules of the designed system, namely; 1. Front End Module This is the part that is directly visible to the user. Users can directly interact in this section 2. Back End Module Is the back of the layer that can only be accessed by the admin While in testing user responses, researchers use a questionnaire which can be in the form of closed/open questions/statements, and each respondent's answer has a score as follows: Table 1. Gutman Scale Score Category Score Yes 1 No 2 With this type of measurement scale, a firm answer will be obtained, namely "yes - no"; "True False"; ever – never”; positive - negative and so on. The answer "yes" will be given a score of 1 (one) and for the answer "no" will be given a score of 0 (zero). (Sugiyono, 2016:169). The formula used in measuring the Guttman scale is still according to the same reference: 𝑃 = 𝑓 𝑛 x100%…….........………………….[1] Description : P = Percentage f = Frequency of “yes” answers n = Number of questions Furthermore, the percentage obtained is changed in the form of a table as follows: Table 2. Category Percentage Percentage Category 0% - 20% Not feasible 21% - 40% Less worthy 41% - 60% Decent enough 61% - 80% Worthy 81% - 100% Very Worthy III. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Implementation Design Figure 2. Context Diagram In this study using a design model of information system design Use Case Diagram which is then interpreted in more detail using Context while the database design uses Entity Relationship Diagram (ER-Diagram). Shown in the context of the diagram above there are 3 entities, and some of the data flows include: 1. User Entity The user entity has 9 data streams. The user will perform the login process by entering the username and password. Furthermore, the user can input (choose) a loan, either laboratory loan or equipment and goods. In addition, the user can also make a return. The system will process according to what is selected by the user, after that the system will provide feedback in the form of a print out of borrowing or returning. Users can also view loan and return reports. 2. Admin Entity The admin entity has 12 data streams. Admin will perform the login process by entering the username and Development of Integrated Laboratory Management Information System SISFORMA: Journal of Information Systems (e-Journal) Vol.9 | No 2 |Th. 2022 ISSN 2442-7888 (online) DOI 10.24167/sisforma.v9i2.4359 50 password. Admins can access the data on the menus in the dashboard, namely class menus, rooms, courses, lab assistants, goods and tools, laboratory heads, admins, lecturers, students, and practicum schedules. Admin also has search, edit, add, and delete actions on class menus, rooms, courses, lab assistants, goods and tools, laboratory heads, admins, lecturers, students, and practicum schedules. Admin can also print and save loan and return reports. 3. Entity Head of Laboratory The head laboratory entity has 5 data streams. The Head of the Laboratory will carry out the login process by entering a username and password. The Head of the Laboratory can print and save reports on the results of borrowing and returning. The head of the laboratory can view login data, as well as data on goods and tools. Next, an Entity Relationship Diagram (ER-Diagram) is shown which shows the relationship between entities and the transactional data that occurs in them. Figure 3.
