This research aims to design and build a web-based information system for personnel data management and real-time location tracking integrated with IoT-based smart card validation at the Army Polytechnic (Poltekad) Kodiklatad. The system was developed using the Python programming language with the Flask framework and MySQL database, following the Waterfall development method. Key features include personnel data management (CRUD), automatic QR Code generation for each member based on their Registration Number (NRP), digital smart card printing in PDF format integrating profile photos and QR Codes, smart card template management, NFC card registration endpoint for mobile integration, real-time personnel location monitoring through integration with MiCard devices and Google Find Hub service, activity log recording, and personnel balance management. System testing was conducted using Black Box Testing with 15 test scenarios achieving a 100% success rate. Response time measurements show that all features operate below 3 seconds, with an average of 1.31 seconds. This system contributes to the modernization of personnel administration at Poltekad by replacing manual methods with an efficient, accurate, and IoT-integrated digital system.
