This preprint describes the design and implementation of a web-based multiuser enterprise resource planning (ERP) system for higher education institutions to centralize accreditation-related data collection and enable real-time collaboration among stakeholders (students, faculty, alumni, and staff). Using a React.js frontend with a Node.js/Express.js backend and a MySQL database, the authors report that the platform was deployed at Delhi Technological University and actively tested for efficiency and scalability, with compatibility claims for accreditation requirements from bodies such as NBA and NAAC. They report that the ERP reduced accreditation preparation time by 66–72% and enhanced stakeholder collaboration, while noting as a major caveat that the work is a preprint and not peer reviewed and that data may be preliminary. The paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

Abstract

Higher education institutions(HEIs) face growing challenges in managing accreditation and administrative processes. These accrediting organizations have recently placed greater emphasis on the collaborative participation of the stakeholders in community engagement. The absence of a centralized digital platform causes fragmentation in data management and inhibition of stakeholder interaction, limiting institutional efficiency and transparency. This research aims to build a web-based multiuser ERP(Enterprise Resource Planning) system that serves as a unified platform for students, faculty, alumni, department offices and staff to function and interact. The objective is to facilitate the accreditation data collection, enhance real-time collaboration and improve institutional management by integrating digital workflows into a seamless, role-based access system, which is compatible with the requirements of accrediting bodies such as NBA(National Board of accreditation) and NAAC(National Assessment and Accreditation Council). A web-based ERP portal was developed using React.js for the frontend, Node.js and Express.js for the backend and MySQL for the structured database management system, which is hosted via Vercel and Digitalocean. The system is currently in operation at Delhi Technological University(DTU), India, and has been actively tested to evaluate its efficiency and scalability. The ERP solution reduced the accreditation preparation time by 66-72% and enhanced stakeholder collaboration. The system’s scalability makes it adaptable to HEIs globally. This paper demonstrates how ERP-based solutions can enhance accreditation compliance and institutional efficiency.

Abstract

Higher education institutions(HEIs) face growing challenges in managing accreditation and administrative processes. These accrediting organizations have recently placed greater emphasis on the collaborative participation of the stakeholders in community engagement. The absence of a centralized digital platform causes fragmentation in data management and inhibition of stakeholder interaction, limiting institutional efficiency and transparency. This research aims to build a web-based multiuser ERP(Enterprise Resource Planning) system that serves as a unified platform for students, faculty, alumni, department offices and staff to function and interact. The objective is to facilitate the accreditation data collection, enhance real-time collaboration and improve institutional management by integrating digital workflows into a seamless, role-based access system, which is compatible with the requirements of accrediting bodies such as NBA(National Board of accreditation) and NAAC(National Assessment and Accreditation Council). A web-based ERP portal was developed using React.js for the frontend, Node.js and Express.js for the backend and MySQL for the structured database management system, which is hosted via Vercel and Digitalocean. The system is currently in operation at Delhi Technological University(DTU), India, and has been actively tested to evaluate its efficiency and scalability. The ERP solution reduced the accreditation preparation time by 66-72% and enhanced stakeholder collaboration. The system’s scalability makes it adaptable to HEIs globally.
