CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.0 Introduction
Employee’s performance management and appraisal is a subject of great interest in any organization. In every organization, employees play a vital role in determining its survival.

Performance appraisal is a system that involves a process of measuring, evaluating, and influencing employees’ attributes, behavior and performance in relation to a pre-set standard or objective.
In this information technology era, employee performance can be evaluated using software systems. This will  enable information about the performance of employees to be easily evaluated and saved to database for future retrieval.

1.1 Theoretical Background
Performance management of employees can be seen as the systematic description of individual job-relevant strengths and weaknesses for the purposes of making a decision about the individual. In another term, performance appraisal is a process of evaluating the behavior of the employees in the workplace, or can also be referred as a process of giving feedback on employees’ performance. It involves a very complicated process and various factors can influence the process. Therefore, the process of evaluating employee’s behavior should be looked at as a reciprocal process or using a matrix perspective and not as a straightforward process. There are a number of different appraisal approaches/ methods commonly used in organizations with methods used has their advantages as well as disadvantages and there is no right and wrong methods or approaches. Consistency and focus on the usage of the approaches or methodology are crucial to ensure they are successful.

1.2 Statement of the Problem
Organizations still utilize the manual method of evaluating employee performance.
It is difficult and time consuming to retrieve employee performance information.
Absence of a database system to manage employee performance records.

1.3 Aim and Objectives of the Study
The aim of the study is to develop an automated Staff performance system. The following are the objectives of the study:
To develop a computerized system to aid in the evaluation of employee performance.
To design a system that will make finding of employee performance information easy.
To implement a database system that will maintain records of employee performance.

1.4 Significance of the study
The study is significant to the ministry of education because it will provide an automated system that will aid in maintaining accurate record of employee performance, it will provide a system that will enable information related to employee performance to be easily retrieved. The study will also serve as a useful reference material to other researchers seeking similar information.

1.5 Scope of the Study
This study covers Development of a performance evaluation system for employee management (A case study of Akwa Ibom state polytechnic, Ikot Osurua).

1.6 Organization of the Research
This research work is organized into five chapters. Chapter one is concerned with the introduction of the research study and it presents the preliminaries, theoretical background, statement of the problem, aim and objectives of the study, significance of the study, scope of the study, organization of the research and definition of terms.
