The researcher used Iterative method. It allows for dynamic development. It has different phases; planning, analysis, design and implementation. The system was evaluated using IBM usability evaluation tool as an intermediary questionnaire, and undergoes testing for the usability and acceptability through sets of questionnaire, by some experts and end-users to ensure that the system reached the standards and functionality that was needed by the end-users. Expert testing resulted to 4.8 and was interpreted as Highly Usable. End-user testing were conducted also which resulted to a weighted mean of 4.7 interpreted as Highly Usable. .Results shows that the MIS met the IBM standard. Therefore, implementation of the system is highly recommended.
