Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of internal audit in enhancing the integrity of regional financial reports at the Gorontalo Provincial Inspectorate. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method, collecting data through in-depth interviews, observations, and document studies. The results indicate that internal audit plays a significant role through assurance, consultative, and risk-based supervisory functions, including regular audits, OPD financial report reviews, technical assistance, probity audits, and investigative audits. However, supervisory effectiveness is constrained by limited authority, resources, and OPD commitment. To overcome these challenges, the Inspectorate implements strategies such as utilizing information technology, improving coordination with OPDs, monitoring follow-up on audit recommendations, and ensuring auditor independence. These findings demonstrate that internal audit contributes to increased accountability and prevention of financial irregularities. The study offers practical implications for enhancing auditor capacity and OPD coordination, as well as recommendations for future research to broaden the scope of informants.

Abstract

This study aims to measure the level of the integrity index in the Gorontalo region, which includes six districts/municipalities and one province. Data were collected using a questionnaire instrument distributed to civil servants, beneficiary communities, vendors, and experts. The data were processed using R-Studio software to ensure accurate and comprehensive analysis. The findings reveal significant variations in index scores, with the highest score recorded in Bone Bolango District and the lowest in Pohuwato District. The dimensions of transparency and goods/services procurement management show strong performance, while institutional integrity and anti-corruption outreach tend to be low. Gorontalo City and North Gorontalo District show low institutional integrity scores, indicating the need for organizational culture reform and strengthened oversight systems. Initiatives such as technology-based services, community engagement, and anti-corruption training have shown positive outcomes, although their implementation remains inconsistent. Indications of nepotistic practices and tolerance toward gratuities pose challenges that require immediate attention. Strategic recommendations include strengthening internal oversight mechanisms, implementing a meritocracy system to eliminate nepotism, intensifying anti-corruption outreach, and enhancing community involvement in public oversight. The use of information technology and collaboration with supervisory institutions such as the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) are essential to realizing a more integrity-driven, transparent, and accountable governance system in Gorontalo.
