The E-PWD Raigad project represents a comprehensive web-based digital solution for the Public Works Department (PWD) Raigad District, addressing critical challenges of manual processes, fragmented communication, and limited public accessibility. The platform consolidates event management, project tracking, and rest house booking into a unified digital portal with a three- tier architecture comprising Bootstrap-based responsive frontend, PHP backend with MVC design patterns, and MySQL relational database with 3NF normalization. The system achieves robust performance handling 100+ concurrent users with 99/ up time reliability and sub-2-second response times for standard operations. Comprehensive testing including unit, integration, system, and user acceptance testing validates functional correctness with 100/ pass rate. The platform implements RBAC, SHA-256 encryption, and OWASP compliance for security. This research contributes to e-governance implementation through practical architectural guidance, performance benchmarking, and alignment with India?s Digital India initiative, providing a scalable, replicable model for similar government digitization efforts.
