The study focused on the design, development, and implementation of ALERT35: Development of Application for Emergency Rescue Response of Lal-lo, Cagayan. The study's objective is to lessen the time it took to respond to an emergency thus minimizing the figures of mortality and potentially saving more lives. Interviews with the Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction Office (MDRRMO) and documentary analyses of the documents and reports we conducted to determine the inputs in the conceptual paradigm of the study. Scrum methodology was used as a guide during the development of the applications. Three IT professionals as system evaluators, three IT professionals as panelist and six end-users evaluated the developed system. Findings shows that the developed system is compliant to a great extent vis-a-vis the ISO 25010:2011 criteria. The system would enable the residents and rescue to responders of Lal-lo, Cagayan to communicate effectively during emergency situation providing timely, efficient, accurate situational awareness, and effective resource management during those situations. The system would also allow real-time display of emergency reports and generation of update data and information on the MDRRMO thereby aiding in reporting and effective decision making.
