Abstract

This study explores how public service innovations in motor vehicle testing, based on Regional Public Service Agencies (BLUD), can improve road safety governance. In regions with rapidly growing motor vehicle populations, inadequate roadworthiness controls contribute to high traffic accident risks. While Indonesia has a regulatory framework for motor vehicle testing, service delivery remains largely administrative and lacks a strong focus on road safety. The study aims to assess how public service innovations can enhance road safety governance through local government-managed vehicle testing based on BLUD. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis involving local government officials, testing technicians, and service users. Thematic and interpretive data analysis identified governance dimensions that influence service effectiveness. The study finds that road safety governance improvement relies on four main capacities: relational, structural, resource, and adaptive. Although BLUD-based management offers flexibility for service innovation, its implementation has not fully aligned with road safety goals. Challenges remain in public trust, cross-agency coordination, resource availability, and organizational learning. The study concludes that integrating public service innovation with institutional capacity building and safety-focused performance management is essential for strengthening road safety governance. These findings highlight the strategic importance of motor vehicle testing in enhancing road safety and public value at the regional level.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the quality of administrative services at UPT Puskesmas Bumi Ayu, Dumai City, as part of primary public health service delivery. Service quality is an important indicator of institutional performance and community satisfaction. This research uses a qualitative approach with data collected through interviews, observation, and documentation. Informants consisted of the head of the health center and a service user selected purposively based on direct involvement in administrative services. The data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The assessment framework applies five service quality dimensions: tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy. The findings indicate that administrative services generally perform well, particularly in staff responsiveness, procedural reliability, and empathetic interaction. However, several limitations remain, including limited inpatient room facilities and difficulties among elderly users in understanding the Mobile JKN online registration system. These results suggest that service improvement should focus on strengthening physical infrastructure and enhancing user support for digital service access to improve overall administrative service quality in primary healthcare institutions.

Abstract

Marriage administration services are a form of public service that has important legal and social implications for the community. The Office of Religious Affairs (KUA), as a technical implementing unit of the Ministry of Religious Affairs, plays a strategic role in providing legal certainty regarding marital status. This study aims to analyze the quality of public services and public perceptions of marriage administration services at the Office of Religious Affairs in South Dumai District. This study used a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation studies, with purposively selected informants consisting of KUA officers and community service users. Data analysis was conducted using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results show that the quality of public services at the KUA in South Dumai District is generally in the good category, particularly in the dimensions of responsiveness, reliability, and assurance. However, the tangible and empathy dimensions still require improvement, particularly related to limited infrastructure and individual attention to the community. This study confirms that the effectiveness of marriage administration services is determined not only by the performance of the apparatus, but also by the level of understanding and readiness of the community as service users. These findings provide important implications for improving the quality of public services through strengthening socialization, procedural transparency, and a more user-oriented service approach.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Regional Revenue Agency (Bapenda) in collecting hotel taxes in Dumai City. Using a qualitative approach with a case study method, this study explores the factors influencing the effectiveness of tax collection and the obstacles encountered. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation, which were then analyzed using thematic analysis. The results indicate that although the objectives of tax collection have been clearly defined and provide benefits for regional development, several obstacles still hinder the achievement of the expected targets. The main obstacles include a lack of coordination between relevant parties, immature planning, and policies that are not yet fully effective. In addition, bad debts on hotel taxes are a major challenge that affects the effectiveness of tax collection. This study also found that a broad socialization strategy and the provision of adequate infrastructure have helped increase taxpayer awareness and compliance. However, supervision and control need to be improved to prevent irregularities and ensure taxpayer compliance. By improving coordination, more detailed planning, data-driven policies, more intensive education, the use of information technology, and stricter supervision, it is hoped that the effectiveness of hotel tax collection can be significantly improved. This research provides an important contribution to the Dumai City Bapenda and other local governments in their efforts to improve the effectiveness of regional tax collection. It is hoped that the recommendations provided can be implemented to overcome existing obstacles and increase regional original income (PAD) in a sustainable manner.

Abstract

Public service is a key aspect of government performance that directly affects community satisfaction. This study examines the quality of public service at the Bumi Ayu Subdistrict Office in Dumai Selatan, Dumai City, using five dimensions: reliability, responsiveness, empathy, tangibles, and assurance. Data were collected through observation, interviews with two informants (one official and one service user), and document review. The findings indicate that public services are generally effective. Staff demonstrate adequate reliability and responsiveness, show empathy in serving the community, provide sufficient facilities to support service activities, and foster public trust through professional conduct. Supporting factors include well-organized service procedures, adequate infrastructure, and attentive staff, while limitations involve dependency on the subdistrict head for document approval, limited staff during peak hours, and some facility constraints. The study highlights the need to improve service timeliness, increase staff availability, and improve facilities to optimize public service delivery. Enhancing training programs for staff and implementing technology solutions for document processing could contribute to further improving service quality. Future research could focus on expanding the scope of public service assessments to include citizen satisfaction and feedback, providing insights into the areas requiring attention for continuous improvement.

Abstract

Public service delivery in taxation is a vital function of government in fulfilling citizens' administrative rights, particularly through the issuance of the Taxpayer Identification Number (NPWP). The quality of this service directly influences taxpayer satisfaction, understanding, and trust in tax institutions. This study aims to analyze the quality of public service in NPWP issuance at the Primary Tax Office (KPP Pratama) of Dumai City and to identify supporting and inhibiting factors affecting service implementation. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through observations, in-depth interviews with tax officers and taxpayers, and documentation studies. Data analysis was conducted using an interactive model consisting of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The assessment of service quality was based on the SERVQUAL framework developed by Zeithaml and Parasuraman, encompassing five dimensions: tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy. The results show that NPWP issuance services at KPP Pratama Dumai City are generally well implemented. Adequate facilities, adherence to standard operating procedures, responsive officers, data security assurance, and courteous service attitudes support service quality. However, challenges remain, particularly related to limited waiting room capacity during peak periods, varying levels of taxpayer understanding, and the need for clearer procedural information. Continuous improvement in communication, service management, and capacity planning is required to enhance public service quality.

Abstract

Public service is the primary indicator of the effectiveness of government bureaucratic performance, as it directly reflects how well public institutions meet community needs. This study aims to evaluate the quality of public services at the Dumai City SAMSAT Office using the SERVQUAL approach, which consists of five dimensions: tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method with a purposive sampling technique. Informants included one SAMSAT employee and two service users selected based on their direct experience with the service process. Data were collected through interviews and observations to gain an in-depth understanding of service implementation. The findings reveal that the tangible, empathy, and responsiveness dimensions have been implemented relatively well, indicated by improved facilities, supportive infrastructure, and faster service delivery. However, weaknesses remain in the reliability and assurance dimensions, particularly regarding service consistency and the professionalism and attitude of officers toward the public. The study recommends strengthening integrated service systems and enhancing ethics and service excellence training for employees to improve overall service quality.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the implementation of Public Service Standards in inpatient services at Dumai City Regional General Hospital (RSUD) as an important part of the provision of health services to the community. Public service standards are needed to ensure service quality, efficiency, transparency, and public satisfaction as service users. However, in practice, various problems are still found, particularly related to the timeliness of service, clarity of service costs, and the availability of supporting facilities and infrastructure. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with research subjects including hospital management, inpatient service staff, and community service users. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and documentation studies to obtain a comprehensive picture of the implementation of public service standards. The data obtained were analyzed using thematic analysis methods through the stages of data transcription, coding, theme identification, theme grouping, and data interpretation. The results of the study indicate that the overall implementation of Public Service Standards in inpatient care at Dumai City Regional General Hospital is in the good category. Indicators of service procedures, service products, and the competence of service providers have been implemented quite optimally, characterized by clear procedures, services that meet patient needs, and friendly and professional staff attitudes. However, the service completion time and cost indicators are still in the fairly good category, which indicates delays in service and limited information regarding costs received by patients. Furthermore, facilities and infrastructure are the indicators that require the most attention, especially regarding the comfort of the waiting room and the completeness of service support equipment. In conclusion, although the standard of public service at the Dumai City Regional Hospital inpatient has been running well, continuous improvement efforts are needed to increase service time efficiency, cost transparency, and the provision of facilities and infrastructure to increase public satisfaction and trust in health services.
