Abstract

This study investigates the challenges and adaptive strategies of electoral logistics during the 2024 general election in Banggai Kepulauan Regency, an archipelagic region in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with 25 key informants, field observations, and document analysis. The findings reveal five major obstacles: geographic fragmentation, lack of dedicated fleets and trained personnel, weak institutional coordination, limited use of SiLogistik due to connectivity problems, and security concerns in remote areas. To address these, local election bodies adopted early delivery, community-led monitoring, and informal storage mechanisms, demonstrating the critical role of grassroots engagement. These findings highlight a unique hybrid model that integrates manual and digital tools, central planning with local execution, and formal institutions with informal community networks. Theoretically, the study contributes to debates on adaptive governance and logistics resilience in fragmented geographies, while practically it provides policy insights for Indonesia’s KPU and electoral stakeholders to strengthen future logistics in island regions
