Development of the Budget Proposal Process for Procurement Using the UP-DMS System at the School of Allied Health Sciences, University of Phayao

Abstract

This study aimed to develop the budget proposal process for procurement not exceeding 500,000 Baht using the UP-DMS system, compare the processing time before and after system implementation, and evaluate the satisfaction of personnel involved in using the UP-DMS system at the school of Allied Health Sciences, University of Phayao. The ADDIE model was applied as a framework for developing and improving the budget proposal process, along with assessing user satisfaction. The study involved 18 participants aged 20-50 years, all of whom were personnel engaged in the budget proposal process within the faculty. Data were collected using a five-point Likert scale questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics, including percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The results revealed that the processing time for budget proposals was reduced from 14 days to 7 days, representing a 50% reduction. Moreover, overall user satisfaction was at a high level (3.96 ± 0.71), with the highest rating given to data security (4.17 ± 0.62), followed by the ability to track documents (4.11 ± 0.58) and cost reduction in operations, such as reducing paper usage (4.11 ± 0.90). The UP-DMS system contributes to enhancing the budget proposal process by making it more structured, reducing paperwork burdens, and improving document tracking efficiency.
