Information system design: INTRA-NET to support digital transformation for Indonesia engineers

Abstract

Digital transformation has become essential in various sectors, including engineering in Indonesia, necessitating an efficient information system to facilitate collaboration, knowledge sharing, and innovation among engineers. Despite its potential, many Indonesian engineers face challenges in accessing information and collaborating effectively, leading to decreased productivity and innovation. This study aims to design an INTRA-NET to support Indonesian engineers in their digital transformation journey by enhancing information accessibility and strengthening community collaboration. The research employed the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) to systematically develop and evaluate the INTRA-NET system. Data were collected through interviews, surveys, and analysis of existing documentation. Google Lighthouse and user feedback were utilized during the evaluation phase to measure system performance and user satisfaction. The findings indicate that the INTRA-NET effectively meets engineers’ requirements for information access and collaboration, incorporating features such as discussion forums, integrated document storage, and project-sharing platforms. In conclusion, the proposed INTRA-NET serves as a valuable tool for accelerating digital transformation among Indonesian engineers while promoting a culture of knowledge sharing and collaboration. Recommendations include involving engineers in further development and implementation, providing training and outreach to maximize effective use, and conducting periodic evaluations to adapt to evolving user needs.
