Paperless automated management system is the current trend in the market. The office which deals with the administration of the college has several responsibilities like student admission, document collection and verification, fee collections in various streams like admission, examination, attendance report, internal assessment report, general notices etc. Recently we have developed software called Information Management System (IMS) for the office management which automates all the services of the office management system. This paper presents the implementation of IMS for the office management system which include automated monthly attendance report, automated internal assessment marks, information about the students and their parents, information about the various types of fee collected from the students, study materials submitted by the staff members. It also provides information about the performance of the students to the parents by means of sms, email services. The system also helps salary calculations, salary report generation of the staff members etc. This paper also highlights the development of the software using open-source with server side implementations.
