Abstract

FEU Tech’s College of Computer Studies hosts an annual event known as Technology Innovation on Capstone Project (TICaP), which exhibits the different capstone projects of each specialization. This event allows the students to view the different projects of the FEU Tech PBL students and recognizes the group with the best capstone project and other special awards. However, problems were encountered while managing the event resulting in disorganized planning and management. The proponents developed an event management system named TICaP HUB to solve the different problems experienced by the organizers in planning and managing the event. The team conducted a system evaluation and survey of the PBL and non-PBL students, including FEU Tech faculties. Using the Likert scale for the system evaluation, the Web application has an overall weighted mean of 4.72 and 4.71 for the mobile application. This outcome can be interpreted that the users strongly agreed with the FURPS evaluation of the system. With the results acquired from the respondents, the proponents conclude that using the TICaP HUB can significantly help the users efficiently manage the TICaP event and lessen the time consumed in planning and organizing for the said event.
