This report present the outcome of an investigative research conducted to examine the modu-operandi of academic staff union of polytechnics (ASUP) YabaTech. The investigation covered the logistics and cost implication for spreading union activities among members. It was discovered that cost of management and dissemination of information to members was at high side, also logistics problem constitutes to loss of information in transit hence cut away some members from union activities. To curtail the problem identified, we proposed the design of secure and dynamic website for spreading union activities among members and public. The proposed system was implemented using HTML5 technology, interface frameworks like Bootstrap and jquery which enables the responsive feature of the application interface. The backend was designed using PHP MYSQL. It was discovered from the evaluation of the new system that cost of managing information has reduced considerably, and logistic problems identified in the old system has become a forgotten issue.
