Abstract

This study explores strategic approaches to enhancing the utilization of domestic products (Produk Dalam Negeri, PDN) in public procurement processes within Bogor Regency, Indonesia. Anchored in the national policy framework promoting local industrial development and economic resilience, the research investigates institutional, regulatory, and procedural barriers that impede optimal implementation of PDN mandates at the regional level. Employing a qualitative descriptive methodology, the study draws on interviews with government procurement officials and local vendors, as well as an analysis of procurement plans, budget realization data, and policy documents. Findings reveal that the underperformance in PDN absorption is primarily attributed to the absence of localized regulatory instruments, inadequate integration of PDN priorities in regional planning and performance systems, limited institutional capacity, and fragmented coordination among key stakeholders. Furthermore, systemic weaknesses in procurement planning and vendor engagement hinder compliance with national targets, resulting in substantial gaps between planned and realized domestic product spending. To address these issues, the study offers a set of comprehensive recommendations. Practically, it advocates for the formulation of local regulations and technical guidelines, capacity building for procurement actors, and the development of digital procurement platforms prioritizing domestic suppliers. From a policy perspective, it recommends the institutionalization of performance-based monitoring and evaluation systems, inter-agency coordination mechanisms, and incentive structures. Theoretically, the research contributes to the discourse on sustainable procurement by proposing a framework linking institutional readiness, procurement processes, and local economic impact. The study concludes that with targeted regulatory reforms, institutional strengthening, and strategic alignment between national mandates and local practices, Bogor Regency can significantly improve its PDN realization, thereby reinforcing local industry participation in public sector supply chains and advancing sustainable regional development.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the accountability of village fund management in regional development in Bogor Regency, focusing on the five dimensions of accountability as proposed by Koppell’s theory: transparency, liability, responsibility, controllability, and responsiveness. The research employs a qualitative approach, using data collection techniques such as in-depth interviews, document analysis, and field observations involving key actors including the Village Community Empowerment Agency (DPMD), the Inspectorate, village heads, and local communities. The findings reveal that the principle of transparency has been implemented through the use of information media and digital systems such as SIPANDA and SITANTI. Both internal and external supervision mechanisms are actively in place, although not yet uniformly practiced across all villages. The study identifies key challenges in ensuring accountability, including the limited capacity of village officials, the weak role of the Village Consultative Body (BPD), and the insufficient level of community participation in planning and monitoring processes. The proposed strategies to enhance accountability include strengthening the capacity of human resources at the village level, optimizing the use of information technology, and providing incentives for villages that demonstrate accountable governance practices. The implications of this study emphasize that accountability is not merely about administrative reporting, but also reflects social responsibility and the sustainability of development efforts. These findings contribute to the formulation of village fund management policies that are more transparent, participatory, and results-oriented at the local level.

Abstract

This study explores the implementation of the Child-Friendly Regency/City (KLA) policy in Bogor Regency, specifically focusing on Cluster III: Basic Health and Welfare, as part of efforts to promote inclusive regional development. The research is motivated by the high infant mortality rate in Bogor Regency—the highest in West Java with 799 reported cases—and the region’s current "developing" status in the national KLA assessment. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through interviews, document analysis, and field observations. The findings reveal four key obstacles hindering effective policy implementation: (1) the absence of local regulations governing child-friendly childbirth services and health facilities; (2) limited infrastructure and transportation access to healthcare for remote communities; (3) low public awareness regarding the importance of national health insurance (BPJS) and inadequate dissemination of early childhood nutrition programs; and (4) an insufficient number of child-friendly health centers. To address these challenges, the study recommends four strategic interventions: establishing a legal framework through regional regulations for child-friendly health indicators, improving infrastructure and transportation access, enhancing community literacy on child nutrition and health services, and expediting the verification of child-friendly healthcare facilities. These measures are essential for fostering inclusive development and advancing child welfare in the region.

Abstract

This study aims to formulate strategic recommendations for enhancing the service quality of RSUD Ciawi. Despite its strategic location and status as a primary referral center in Bogor Regency, RSUD Ciawi faces critical internal challenges, evidenced by low compliance rates with several National Quality Indicators (INM) (Permenkes No. 30/2022) and persistent public complaints regarding service responsiveness and reliability. This research employs a qualitative descriptive case study method utilizing SWOT analysis (Input, Matching, and Decision stages) and the SERVQUAL model dimensions (Tangibles, Reliability, Responsiveness, Assurance, and Empathy) to identify influencing factors and define actionable strategies. Key data were collected through interviews with key informants and document analysis. The findings reveal a critical lack of staff compliance in crucial clinical protocols, notably Hand Hygiene (53%–69% compliance), Use of Personal Protective Equipment (APD) (65%–81%), and Adherence to Clinical Pathways (25%–49%). Systemic weaknesses also include complicated administrative processes for emergency procedures (C-Section) and capacity limitations (inpatient beds). The resultant strategy focuses on integrated digitalization (RME/Clinical Pathway), strict disciplinary enforcement, and simplification of emergency service procedures to mitigate financial and reputational risks.
