Evaluation of An Existing System Using The System Usability Scale (SUS) as A Guideline for System Improvement
Abstract
The e-Polvot system at the University of Science and Technology Indonesia (USTI) is a digital platform used for student elections, replacing traditional paper-based voting to enhance efficiency and minimize election fraud. This study evaluates the system using the System Usability Scale (SUS) to assess its usability, including efficiency, effectiveness, and user satisfaction. However, SUS alone does not determine failure points but provides a usability score that reflects user perception. A survey was conducted with 88 respondents from three different academic programs, which showed that while the system generally received a "Good" usability rating, certain areas require enhancement to improve user engagement and satisfaction. Based on the findings, this study recommends enhancing the user interface, providing targeted user training, and introducing additional features to broaden the system’s application across academic units. Additionally, the study highlights the potential for expanding the system's functionality beyond student elections, supporting activities such as departmental voting and organizational decision-making processes. These improvements aim to increase user satisfaction and usability, making the system a more effective tool for various academic and institutional contexts.

CONCLUSION
The evaluation of the e-Polvot system using the System Usability Scale (SUS) revealed that while the system effectively supports student elections at USTI, there are opportunities for improvement to enhance user experience and engagement. The analysis showed that although the system was rated as "Good" and "Acceptable," many users remained passive in their support, indicating room for increased satisfaction and adoption. By addressing the identified usability issues and expanding the system's capabilities to include additional features for academic and organizational voting, e-Polvot can become a more versatile and widely-used tool. Key recommendations include improving user interface design, providing comprehensive training for new users, and integrating features that allow the system to be utilized for various academic purposes beyond student elections. Implementing these changes will likely lead to higher user satisfaction and broaden the system's applicability, reinforcing its role as an essential platform within the academic community.
