Digital transformation at the Palembang City Population and Civil Registration Office is one of the tangible forms of E-Government implementation, especially through the implementation of Digital Population Identity (IKD) and population administration information system (SIAK). This change is driven by national regulations and the need to realize fast, accountable, and inclusive services amid the challenges of low digital literacy and human resource readiness. This transformation is important to overcome the constraints of previous manual services and encourage a government system that is more adaptive to the digital era. This research aims to determine the digital transformation of the Palembang City Population and Civil Registration Office in 2024. The research method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, observations and documentation at the Palembang City Population and Civil Registration Office. Data analysis is carried out through data collection, data presentation, and verification and confirmation of conclusions. The location of this research is the Palembang City Population and Civil Registration Office located on Jalan Demang Lebar Daun, No.4225, Lorok Pakjo, Kec. The interview resource persons amounted to 9 people, including 1 head of office, 3 employees of the Disdukcapil, 5 communities. The results of this study show that the Digital Transformation of the Palembang City Population and Civil Registration Office in 2024 shows significant achievements in improving the quality of public service governance. The implementation of the population administration information system (SIAK) and Digital Population Identity (IKD) contributes to increasing the efficiency, transparency, and accessibility of services to the community. This success is supported by the availability of adequate technological infrastructure, adaptive regulations, and strategic initiatives such as the "Pick Up the Ball" program that strengthens community participation. However, this transformation process still faces a number of obstacles, including the low level of digital literacy of the community, limited human resource competencies and technical challenges related to network stability and digital access gaps in certain regions. In conclusion, the digital transformation carried out by the Palembang City Disdukcapil is a strategic step in supporting an electronic-based government system that is more responsive, adaptive, and inclusive. This effort is also in line with the spirit of the industrial revolution 4.0 and Society 5.0, where digitalization is the main key in providing quality public services, as well as answering the demands of an increasingly dynamic and technology-based era.]]>
