<![CDATA[This study examined the evaluation of local government bureaucratic performance by integrating the principles of transparency and public accountability within the framework of good governance. A qualitative conceptual literature review using a library research approach was employed to synthesize relevant theories and previous studies on bureaucratic performance, transparency, accountability, and governance. The literature was systematically selected, organized, and analyzed through thematic content analysis to identify recurring concepts, relationships, and theoretical patterns. The findings indicated that transparency strengthened public accountability by improving the accessibility of government information and enhancing public oversight. Strong accountability practices subsequently contributed to improved bureaucratic performance through greater responsibility, responsiveness, and effectiveness in public service delivery. Improved bureaucratic performance was found to support the realization of good governance by promoting integrity, efficiency, and public trust. Based on these findings, this study developed a Conceptual Evaluation Framework that explained the sequential relationship among transparency, public accountability, bureaucratic performance, and good governance. The framework provided a comprehensive theoretical foundation for evaluating local government performance and offered practical guidance for strengthening governance systems through integrated performance evaluation.]]>
