Aplicación web con tecnologías Full Stack para la trazabilidad y gestión de documentos en los procesos de compras públicas de la Escuela de Perfeccionamiento de Aerotécnicos

Abstract

Many processes within public administration are managed traditionally or manually. However, with the advancement of information and communications technologies, modernizing these procedures is essential to improve their operational efficiency. The Ecuadorian Air Force's Aerotechnics Improvement School (EPAE) manages its public procurement processes physically, making it difficult to clearly and efficiently track them. The study proposes the design, development, and implementation of a modern web application that, through an interactive interface, facilitates the transparent control, management, and monitoring of public procurement processes in real time. The project was based on a hybrid methodology between Scrum and XP, incorporating best practices from each. Its development structure is based on three layers using React and Node.js technologies. Through surveys, interviews, and direct observation, it was possible to diagnose staff needs, as well as the most critical aspects of current processes. The implementation of the web application has promoted a more organized and collaborative digital organizational culture, facilitating coordination between departments, reducing human error, and improving control and monitoring of process flow. These benefits contribute to improved traceability and the way documents are managed in the institution's public procurement processes
