A WEBBASED CHURCH MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WITH ANALYTICS

Project Description
Supervisor

The effective administration of church activities has become increasingly complex due to the continuous growth in membership, the diversification of ministries, and the expanding scope of church operations. Traditional methods of managing church records, monitoring attendance, and tracking member participation often prove inefficient, error-prone, and time-consuming. To address these challenges, this project proposes and implements a Web-Based Church Management System with Analytics, designed to streamline church administration while providing valuable insights into organizational performance. The system integrates essential church management functionalities, including member registration and profile management, departmental/ministerial structuring, role and privilege assignment, activity scheduling, and attendance tracking. In addition, it incorporates reporting and analytics modules, which provide real-time insights into member engagement, event participation, financial contributions, and overall growth trends within the church. By leveraging modern web technologies, the system ensures accessibility, scalability, and user-friendliness for both church administrators and members. This solution is designed with a multi-tier access structure that distinguishes between super administrators, departmental heads, and regular members, ensuring efficient delegation of responsibilities while safeguarding sensitive data. The analytics dashboard enables administrators to monitor attendance fluctuations, identify active and inactive members, and generate comprehensive reports that support strategic planning and decision-making. Furthermore, the inclusion of financial and contribution analytics allows church leadership to maintain transparency, accountability, and improved stewardship of resources. Methodologically, the project employed a system development life cycle (SDLC) approach, with stages including requirements gathering, system design, implementation, testing, and deployment. The system was developed using web-based technologies such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, and MySQL for database management, ensuring a robust and secure platform capable of handling multiple concurrent users. The results demonstrate that the proposed web-based church management system significantly improves efficiency in administrative processes, reduces redundancy in record keeping, and enhances communication between church leaders and members. The analytics feature provides church leadership with actionable insights that foster informed decision-making, growth monitoring, and resource optimization. In conclusion, the Web-Based Church Management System with Analytics provides a holistic solution to the challenges faced in modern church administration. It not only digitizes and centralizes church operations but also empowers leadership with data-driven insights, thereby promoting organizational effectiveness, accountability, and long-term sustainability of church growth and development.

Web App Development: Web Development research in Computer Science and Information Technology focuses on the design, creation, and optimization of websites and web applications that are accessible over the internet or private networks. This research area spans a variety of topics, including front-end and back-end development, web frameworks, web performance, user experience (UX) design, security, and emerging web technologies. Front-end development research explores the design and functionality of the user-facing side of web applications. This involves studying languages such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, as well as popular frameworks like React, Angular, and Vue.js, which help create dynamic, responsive, and interactive user interfaces. Researchers in this area often focus on improving the accessibility and usability of websites across different devices and browsers. Back-end development focuses on the server side of web applications, where databases, server logic, and application functionality are managed. Research in this area includes database management, server configuration, APIs (Application Programming Interfaces), and the use of frameworks such as Node.js, Django, and Ruby on Rails. It also involves optimization of server-side processes to handle large-scale traffic, improve load times, and ensure seamless data processing.

The main objective of the study is to design, develop, and implement a web-based church management system with analytics to enhance church administration by digitalizing member management, event coordination, attendance tracking, report generation, and contribution monitoring.
