Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION Rationale Boarding Houses provides a low-cost accommodations to some of the most marginal and disadvantage members of our community including Argao where there are college students who came from far places. As their temporary home, they are also expecting most of the facilities they are enjoying in their respective home places. In the continuum of housing security, managing tenant’s information in boarding houses is an insecure and commonly inadequate to use the current manual system. Advances in information technology and changes in laws, institutions and regulations in some countries have encourage the emergence of computer based information system has change the world a great deal (Jantz, 2001). Both large and small value of processing arrangement and time critical payment as well as the documentation of record system have adopted the new methodology by the use of personal computer that enable easier manipulation of the input process and output to fulfill several roles in the production of information system. The focus of this research project is basically managing the record and processing rental payments with the increasing number of tenants in Nardo’s Boarding Houses to help in the difficulties that the landlord is facing. These difficulties are the following; losing huge money through tenants who evade rent, storing and keeping in tangible files may cost higher damage leading to data loss. The researchers decide to develop a reliable system that will serve an accurate and efficient service for rental managers in restoring and keeping record of tenant files properly and with confidentiality.

Theoretical Background Both practitioners and researchers have a strong interest in understanding why people accept information technology so that methods for designing, evaluating and predicting how users will respond to a new technology can be developed. Although practically intertwined, design and evaluation are logically independent issues, noted by Dillon, and it remains an open question in many instances how to translate usability evaluation results to specific interface design improvements. Acceptance theory seeks to extend the traditional model of usercentered design espoused in usability engineering (e.g., Nielsen) from question of interface improvement towards predictions of likely usage. Lack of user acceptance is a significant impediment to the success of new information system (Gould et al; Nickerson). In fact, users are often unwilling to use information systems which, if use, would result in impressive performance gains (Alavi Henderson; Swanson, 1998). Therefore, user acceptance has been viewed as the pivotal factor in determining the success or failure of any information system project (Davis, 1993). N.L. Record and Rental System of Lamacan Argao in which tenants’ record is currently collected manually, and to achieve the objectives given in this study, the researcher has plan to apply the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM Theory)(Davis,1989). The goal of TAM is to predict information system acceptance and diagnose design problems before users have experience with a system. TAM predicts user acceptance of any technology is determined by two factors: perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Within TAM, perceived usefulness (U) is defined as the degree to which a user believes that using the system will enhance his or her performance. Perceived ease of use (EOU) is defined as the degree to which the user believes that using the system will be free from effort.

Both U and EOU are specific perceptions and are anchored to specific beliefs users hold about the system. Thus, attitude is a general construct not tied to any specific beliefs about the technology. Behavioral intentions to use the system (BI) are modeled as a function of A and U. Behavioral intentions (BI) then determines actual use. Research has a consistently shown that BI is the strongest predictor of actual use (Davis et al., Taylor Todd).

NL Record and Rental System (this is overview of the existing system not a related study, you can place this one after the review of related lit and studies) Boarding House plays an integral role in the provision of housing facilities to individuals, most particularly who come from remote provinces and city outskirts. With vast improvement of technology, a boarding house without an accurate, reliable and comprehensive tenant record and rental system can be in a serious risk. Pressure to manage paper registry works from the new file to the old files of the tenants, overwhelming pressures on the segregating the rental documents, diminishing landlords profit, strict administrative policy institution and serious concern on the aspect on legal liabilities leave an insufficient dedicated time in entertaining tenants with best quality accommodation they deserve. The Nardos’ Boarding Houses in Argao up until today is still observed to have been using paper-based system for keeping tenant’s records and rental payments transactions.

Automated Record Management System (ARMS) A Case Study of Ahmadu Bello University Sick-Bay With the advent of computers and its related technology in which everything needs to be done efficiently and effectively the existence of a system become necessary (Alfa Mahfooz Ahmed, 2015). In every

payment transactions, possibly there could be a series of instances especially regarding to keeping of records. One may either find it hard or easy depending on their system implemented. In order to obtain a more productive and maintain a vigorous storing of data, one of the most efficient way is developing a computer-based system. The main objective of his research work is to design a computer base program that will cover all aspects of management and operations. The program will enable the registration process and this features used for proper handling of records and related information the boarding house. This will be stored in a database that can be accessed easily within the short span and yet securely stored in an appropriate and stress free manner. The Problem Statement of the Problem The primary purpose of this study is to develop a system that will maintain and manage the tenant’s record and rental information through N.L Record and Rental System.

This study seeks to answer the following questions:

1. What is the performance level of the current record manual system in terms of: 1.1 1.2 1.3

Speed; Security; Efficiency?

2. What are the problems encountered in using the current manual record in terms of: 2.1 2.2 2.3

Speed; Efficiency; Accessibility?

3. Based on the problems encountered what should be the functionalities of the proposed system?

Scope and Limitations of the Study This study is basically intended for Nardos’ Boarding Houses. It aims to help the owner/manager to improve the efficiency of the procedures in keeping records and managing its rental payments information. The scope of this study is the development of a computer-based program that allows the user to view customer’s data as well as houses record. It will include only tenant’s registrations and rental payment that allows the users to add, edit, search and delete data from the relational database in Java NetBeans as the programming language tool. The program will also generate a report about which month has the most rental made and payment cancelled either by the tenants or terminated by the system. (pls rephrase, you do not need to include the java netbeans since you will explain this in the technological background) In program limitations, the program will not include a central accounting system. It will not also include tenants’ requests from the central administration to the managers, boarding house maintenance services as plumbers, windows, insects, etc., building maintenance and contract management. This program will not be suitable for computer illiterate.

Significance of the Study The overall output of this study can be of great help to the owner of the Nardos’ Boarding Houses in controlling the rental payment of the tenants.

Specifically, the results of the study would benefit the following: Tenants. The tenants are the primary of the study and they are directly beneficial on this study. Landlords. The findings of this study are great help to the landlord to monitor the record of the system easily and tenant’s payment. Researchers. The implementation of this study will enable them to showcase all their skills, capabilities and programming prowess. Future Researchers. The system will serve as a good and reliable research material who wishes to develop similar system and require background information in furthering their research.

Research Methodology Project Environment (Locale of the Study) This study will be conducted at Lamacan, Argao, Cebu specifically at the Nardos Boarding Houses. This is located at Barangay Lamacan, Argao, Cebu. This Boarding House aims to provide safety homes for the tenants for double purposes.(pls rephrase) This Boarding Houses are known not only here in Argao but whole province of Cebu. The researchers concentrated only the NL Record and Rental Payment at Lamacan, Argao, Cebu.
