Function Point Analysis for Quality Evaluation of a Natural Resource Information System in Bulungan Regency
Abstract
This study evaluates the quality of a natural resource information system in Bulungan Regency using Function Point Analysis (FPA). As information systems become increasingly essential in managing complex processes, measuring their quality is crucial, especially for operational systems. FPA was applied to assess various system components, including external inputs, outputs, inquiries, internal logical files, and external logical files, to determine the system's functionality. The analysis involved calculating the Crude Function Point (CFP) and adjusting it using the Relative Complexity Adjustment Factor (RCAF) to determine the final Function Point value. The results indicate a total Function Point value of 317.34, reflecting the system's current complexity and identifying areas for enhancement. The detailed evaluation of system components such as external inputs, outputs, and logical files provided insights into specific areas that require improvement, such as data handling efficiency and user interface functionality. These findings underscore the importance of continuous quality assessment to maintain optimal system performance and adaptability to user needs. This analysis provides stakeholders with a clear benchmark for optimizing system performance, user satisfaction, and resource allocation, ultimately supporting better decision-making for future enhancements.
