Summary: | The amount of activities funding for respective Unit of Student Activities
in West Sumatra Padang State Polytechnic is influenced by a number of proposals
proposed by the activities of every academic period. Therefore, there should be a
process of verification proposals by a team of student activities and finances.
The determination of the feasibility of the proposal of activities to be
passed as an activity must meet several criteria that have been agreed. There are
five criteria for assessment with each subcriteria. The results of the calculation of
the total value of each proposal are classified into three status, namely Very
Decent, Decent and Unsuitable. After conducting the calculations, then the
verification will be applied the financing component that will ultimately decide
how much the funds received by each proposal activity. Each Unit of Students
Activity could submit several proposals, so that, this will be added up how much
the funds received by every Unit of Students Activity.
Decision support system developed in this study uses the method of
Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) to get the weight value of each criterion and
subcriterion and uses the method of Technique for Order Preference by Similarity
to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), in the process of determining the feasibility of the
proposal. Next use the calculation of funding used in determining the amount of
funds received by each proposal. The last process is the totalization of the funds
received by each unit of student activity.
The results of the research showed that the use of AHP and TOPSIS as a
model of decision support systems used for determining the funding activities for
students activity units can help the verification team give priority of proposal
recommendations which were accurate in which the main input was the
assessment of activities proposals in period of 2010, which were considered
decent both technically feasible and administration.
