Introduction
We all know that it is time consuming doing things manually specially on record keeping on a certain establishment. The PNP (Philippine National Police) Valenzuela has been handling crime related issues for Valenzuela. The PNP Valenzuela, as a consequence, maintains a large volume of information. To be able to manage their information requirements, PNP Valenzuela is currently using an information system. This system is manual and paper-based where information is passed on hand-to-hand and information is kept in hard-copy paper files stored ordinarily in filing cabinets. Despite the relevance of their information system, it poses several challenges in the management of information that include an ever increasing paper-load, difficulty in enforcing file access controls as well as cases of missing files and information. Each precinct in the Valenzuela should submit their blotter or crime report to the main branch of PNP here in Valenzuela which is located at Malinta, Valenzuela. Then an encoder on the PNP Valenzuela will check it and encode it on Ms Excel and on their system and they will email it on Camp Crame. The whole process consumes a lot of time, money and effort. To tackle the problems caused by the situation, the development of a web-based system was proposed. The PNP Valenzuela Criminal Records and Permit Management System would manage the criminal records of the PNP Valenzuela with greater ease and flexibility. The designed system would then be accessed by login via an internet browser. Authorized users would have varying privileges and the administrator would be responsible for managing the entire system. The resultant system was able to handle the criminal records that police uses in their operations. Most functionalities of the ordinary police system were implemented especially the management of criminal records, access control, report generation and case assignment. The adoption of this system
