An Online Booking System For Batu Buruk Driving Academy

Abstract

The Online Booking System for Batu Buruk Driving Academy (BBDA) was developed to replace the existing manual-based booking procedures that relied heavily on paperwork, phone calls, and face-to-face communication, which were inefficient, time-consuming, and prone to errors such as double bookings and inaccurate scheduling. To address these issues, a web-based system was introduced to digitalize the booking process while enhancing accessibility and usability for both users and administrators. The system was designed and developed using PHP as the server-side scripting language, MySQL as the database management system, and supported by Adobe Dreamweaver, Visual Studio Code, and XAMPP for development and testing. The methodology applied was the Waterfall Model, a structured and sequential development approach that covered requirement analysis, design, implementation, testing, deployment, and maintenance. The system includes several modules such as user registration and login, booking management, instructor management, and pricing updates. Testing and user feedback confirmed that the system successfully achieved its objectives by improving efficiency, reducing paperwork, and providing a more user-friendly interface. Overall, the Online Booking System for BBDA demonstrates how a driving academy can leverage information systems to modernize its operations, improve customer satisfaction, and establish a foundation for future enhancements such as online payments and mobile integration.
