This article is motivated by the increasing number and complexity of criminal cases within the Indonesian Prosecutor's Office (Kejaksaan RI), which have not been fully supported by a performance-based budgeting system. Current budgeting practices remain input-oriented and focused on budget absorption, resulting in imbalances between case workloads, resolution quality, and cost standard adequacy. This condition contributes to potential case backlogs, performance disparities among regional offices, and public accountability challenges. This study aims to formulate a performance-based budgeting policy framework adaptive to case complexity. The methodology applies a Fishbone Diagram to identify root causes, USG analysis to determine the primary problem statement, and Dunn's policy evaluation framework to assess policy alternatives. Findings indicate that regulatory constraints and input-based budgeting constitute the core problem (highest USG score = 15). The selected policy recommendation is the transformation of the case-handling budgeting system into an integrated digital Performance-Based Budgeting model through regulatory reform, Case Management System integration, and organizational capacity strengthening (Dunn score = 30).
