The implementation of the Certificate of Functional Worthiness (SLF) is a crucial part of realizing reliable, safe, and orderly buildings in accordance with the provisions of Law Number 28 of 2002 concerning Buildings and Government Regulation Number 16 of 2021. However, in Sukabumi City, the implementation of SLF in commercial buildings has not been optimal. This study aims to encourage the publication of SLFs, identify obstacles, and develop strategies to improve building owners' compliance with SLF ownership obligations. The research method used was a qualitative descriptive approach with a case study of commercial buildings on Jalan Ahmad Yani in Sukabumi City. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews with technical agencies (the Public Works and Housing Agency) and building owners or managers, totaling 20 respondents. Data analysis was conducted using the George C. Edwards III policy implementation model, which includes four variables: communication, resources, implementer disposition, and bureaucratic structure.The results indicate that building owners' compliance with SLF ownership remains low, with only 25% of all commercial buildings possessing SLFs. The main obstacles identified include a lack of outreach (communication aspect), limited expert reviewers and high costs (resource aspect), the absence of firm sanctions (disposition aspect), and weak inter-agency coordination (bureaucratic structure aspect). Furthermore, many older buildings still face administrative challenges due to a lack of complete technical documentation.The strategy for improvement is being implemented through strengthening public outreach, increasing the capacity of experts, establishing standard assessment costs, and implementing sanctions and incentives based on compliance. Implementation of this strategy is expected to accelerate the realization of administratively orderly and functionally fit buildings in Sukabumi City.
