description The architecture of government buildings built in the pre-modern days did not cater for the recent advanced technologies of the internet via fiber distribution or (unshielded twisted pair cables) UTP in their plans, therefore making it a bottleneck for the modern network technician installers to plan for clear routes within the buildings for the internet connections and resources being allocated to the diverse ministries. This problem also affected remote located sites of the MICTPSC. A feasibility study was carried out to determine if it was viable to carry on with the research study and it showed that it was economically, technically, social and operationally feasible to continue. Research instruments used in the study included interviews and questionnaires which all contributed to the in house system development. From the research the developer came up with objectives to counter the identified weaknesses. To fulfil the objectives and aims of the system the following instruments and methods were used. The system was coded in PHP programming language with MySQL being used as a database server and all necessary forms were created using Microsoft Dreamweaver within the implementation phase. Tests were carried out during the development of the application to effectively validate and verify the performance of the system. Maintenance strategies were also implemented after using the pilot changeover method in implementing the system. The system met all the objectives that had been stated within the initial development stage, thus the Resource allocation system easily aligned itself with the organizational objectives and has proved to create a culture of transparency and accountability. Recommendations for further development of the system involved implementing a mobile application for the system.
