Abstract The key to achieve high quality education is through the quality assurance. Higher education commission has developed processes for the assessment of the academics program‘s quality. The department of Quality Assurance has established Quality Enhancement Cell which works under specified Criterion. The aim is to organize collected data to produce useful information for QA users. Currently QEC is preparing Self Assessment Report through their predefined Performa and manual of standards to help academic institutions. The main problem of preparing this report is the use of manual methods, which is the cause of producing reports with repetitive errors and obviously, cumbersome to manage. The solution to this problem is, as one may have observed in this era, rapid move towards automation. I have applied Management information system techniques by using software development tools and database integration and widely used reporting tools. Using above mentioned tools and MIS techniques will enable QA and users to perform their job effectively, reduce the repetitive information, save users time and enhanced clarity. Further we utilized the decision support system to helps user to do more precise information for the decision making this will enable multiple users to work in parallel performing their jobs accessing from anywhere anytime according to their own convenience which will help them complete their tasks in considerably less time this process have a big room for system enhancement system management more graphical reports more structural changes by the help of software development tools.
