The selection of event vendors in Banda Aceh City is currently still conducted conventionally, which is prone to triggering information asymmetry and decision fatigue for consumers. This study aims to design and develop a web-based event vendor directory platform equipped with a Decision Support System (DSS) feature to provide objective recommendations. The research follows the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) Waterfall model, implementing the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) ranking method based on criteria of service price, customer rating, and total operational transactions. The system was implemented using the Laravel framework, MySQL database, and Tailwind CSS. Functional testing results via Black Box Testing indicate that all features operate according to specifications without technical issues. Furthermore, user experience quality testing using the System Usability Scale (SUS) method involving 20 respondents yielded an average score of 92.25%, categorizing the system under the "Highly Feasible" predicate. Consequently, the EventVendor directory platform is capable of presenting transparent and structured recommendations, as well as facilitating the public and service providers in conducting transactions digitally.
