<![CDATA[This study evaluates the effectiveness of the Management Information System (MIS) for New Student Admissions (PPDB) at Pondok Pesantren Tahfizhul Qur’an An-Nail Gowa in improving administrative efficiency and service transparency. A qualitative evaluative case-study design was applied using the PIECES framework, covering performance, information, economy, control, efficiency, and service. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with seven purposively selected informants (five internal managers or committee members and two parents), direct observation, and documentation. The findings show that the web-based PPDB MIS accelerates registration, improves data accuracy, reduces paper-based administrative costs, and supports transparent and responsive services. Basic security controls, including HTTPS and separate applicant and administrator logins, were available; however, formal security procedures, automated backup, fine-grained authorization, dedicated IT personnel, and integrated payment verification were not yet fully established. Islamic management principles were used as an interpretive lens, particularly amanah in protecting data, tabayyun in verification, transparency in communication, and ta’awun in service. Overall, the system was generally effective, but structural and technical strengthening is required to ensure sustainable, accountable, and secure pesantren governance.]]>
