ABSTRACT

The purpose of the gender based violence monitoring system is to have accumulative statistics on the cases reported in each province for the purpose of eradicating the challenges which cause the gender based violence. The objectives of the system are that there should be easy allocation of officers to the relevant provinces and to provide the sufficient funding for each program. The data collected is then aggregated to sum up the totals per province and have a collective figure of all the provinces. After the planning phase it was decided that it would be best to continue carrying out the project as it would provide excellent tangible and intangible business values. The feasibility study also showed that the project is economically feasible as well as technically feasible and so the organization has the capacity to carry on with the project. All the risks that the project might encounter have been identified and possible ways to manage the risks have been evaluated. Following the scope of the third stage, to acquire detailed information from the users about the current system. The preliminary investigations were carried out to decide whether to continue with the project and information gathering techniques were used and these included interviews, questionnaires and observation, the copies of the of these techniques are listed in the Appendix. The design phase enabled us to come with the way the new system is supposed to appear. PHP, Wamp web server and MySQL were used in designing the system. There was also design of the data flow, entity relationships and the database as a whole. All this was done to prepare for the implementation of the proposed system. In the implementation phase, the production system was installed, initial user training was also completed, end user documentation was delivered and the post implementation review meeting was held. The stage was reviewed to ensure that we met all the goals in the project plan for a satisfactory result. The implementation stage also dealt with issues of quality, performance, baselines, libraries and debugging. The end deliverable was the system itself.
