Tertiary institutions face significant challenges in managing student academic records, often relying on manual or semi-automated systems. These outdated methods frequently lead to delayed result processing, computational inaccuracies, and a lack of real-time access to academic performance data, ultimately hindering institutional efficiency and student development. This project addresses these issues through the design and implementation of a Result-Based Management System (RBMS). The system automates the computation and management of student results, featuring interactive dashboards for students and administrative staff, and generates standardized reports for lecturers, department administrators, and students. Using the Computer Science Department at the University of Benin as a case study, this project demonstrates the critical need for tertiary institutions to adopt automated solutions for tracking and analyzing student performance. The developed RBMS is a robust digital platform that includes modules for calculating Grade Point Average (GPA) and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA), alongside providing real-time academic analytics. Constructed as a web-based application, the system utilizes HTML, CSS, PHP, JavaScript, jQuery, and MySQL. The project methodology follows the Structured System Analysis and Design Method (SSADM), ensuring a systematic approach by deconstructing complex processes into clear, manageable stages. The successful implementation of this system not only resolves the inefficiencies of manual result computation but also serves as a scalable model for digital transformation within academic administration.
