Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of bureaucratic reform in improve the administrative performance of the Sorong City Regional Secretariat. The research uses a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative methods. Quantitative data were obtained by distributing questionnaires to 30 government apparatus respondents using the Likert scale and were analyzed using descriptive statistics and correlation analysis. Meanwhile, qualitative data were obtained through in-depth interviews with key informants and analyzed using thematic analysis and data triangulation. The results of the study show that the implementation of bureaucratic reform is positively related to the organization's administrative performance. The variables of policy communication, apparatus resources, and bureaucratic structure show a fairly strong correlation with administrative performance, with bureaucratic structure exhibiting the strongest relationship. Qualitative findings also show that bureaucratic reform has been carried out through simplifying procedures, updating SOPs, digitizing administration, and strengthening the performance reporting system. Theoretically, this research strengthens policy implementation theory and public organizational performance theory, which emphasize the importance of policy communication, human resource capacity, and the effectiveness of organizational structures in improving bureaucratic performance. However, this study has limitations in scope, as it is confined to a single organizational unit and a relatively small number of respondents. Therefore, further research is suggested to expand the research object in several regional apparatus organizations in order to obtain a more comprehensive picture of the implementation of bureaucratic reform at the local government level.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the Transformation of E-Government Towards E-Governance in the Public Service Process at the Population and Civil Registration Office of Gresik Regency. The utilization of information technology in public services is one of the government’s efforts to improve administrative efficiency, transparency, and the quality of services provided to the public.This research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive method to provide an in-depth depiction of the implementation of E-Governance in population administration services. Data collection techniques include interviews, observations, and documentation, while data analysis follows the stages of Grouping the data according to key constructs, Identifying bases for interpretation, Developing generalizations from the data, Testing alternative interpretations, and Forming and/or refining generalizable theory from the case study.The results indicate that the implementation of the Transformation of E-Government Towards E-Governance in the Public Service Process at the Population and Civil Registration Office of Gresik Regency is carried out through several key dimensions, namely E-Administration, E-Service, and E-Society. The E-Administration dimension is reflected in the use of digital-based administrative systems for managing population data and processing document applications electronically. The E-Service dimension shows that online services provide easier access for the public to manage population documents more quickly and efficiently. Meanwhile, the E-Society dimension demonstrates an increased utilization of information technology by the public in accessing population administration services. Nevertheless, the implementation of digital services still faces several challenges, such as limited digital literacy among the public and uneven internet access. This study concludes that the application of E-Governance in population administration services in Gresik Regency has made a positive contribution to improving the quality of public services through the utilization of information technology.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the practice of collaborative governance in the innovation of population administration services through the integrated marriage legalization (isbat nikah) program implemented by the Civil Registration and Population Office (Dukcapil) in collaboration with the Religious Court. The program represents a governmental initiative to provide legal certainty for unregistered marriages while improving citizens’ access to legal identity documents. This research employs a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis to examine inter-organizational collaboration in public service delivery. The analytical framework refers to the collaborative governance model developed by Chris Ansell and Alison Gash, focusing on three key dimensions: starting conditions, institutional design, and facilitative leadership. The findings indicate that the initial conditions of collaboration were driven by the high number of unregistered marriages and the institutional limitations of each agency in addressing the issue independently. In terms of institutional design, the collaboration is supported by formal cooperation agreements, clear division of roles, and integrated service mechanisms among participating institutions. Furthermore, facilitative leadership plays a crucial role in fostering coordination, communication, and shared commitment among stakeholders. The study concludes that collaborative governance in the integrated marriage legalization service program enhances the effectiveness of population administration services while providing legal certainty for citizens.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the capacity building of government personnel in implementing the Electronic-Based Government System (SPBE) at the Department of Communication and Informatics of Gresik Regency, which plays a strategic role in digital governance. This study uses a qualitative approach focusing on capacity development strategies and constraints at individual and organizational levels. The findings show that capacity building is carried out through two main strategies: human resource development and organizational strengthening. In human resource development, the establishment and training of an internal assessor team serve as key instruments in supporting SPBE implementation. This team represents institutionalized capacity, enabling the organization to independently conduct monitoring, evaluation, and quality assurance processes in a sustainable manner. This approach reflects a long-term strategy to strengthen institutional independence and reduce reliance on external parties. In organizational strengthening, capacity building focuses on optimizing organizational structure, work systems, coordination mechanisms, and regulatory support, including standard operating procedures. However, several constraints were identified. At the individual level, there is an imbalance in technical competencies, especially in information technology skills. At the organizational level, the lack of optimal follow-up after training highlights the need for more integrated human resource planning. These findings indicate that capacity building in SPBE implementation requires a systemic, well-planned, and sustainable approach to achieve effective, adaptive, and responsive digital government governance in the public sector.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of e-government in improving the quality of public services at the Population and Civil Registration Office of Gresik Regency. The study uses a qualitative descriptive approach, with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation. The analysis focuses on the stages of e-government implementation, covering the dimensions of presence, interaction, and transaction in population administration services. The results indicate that the implementation of e-government at the Population and Civil Registration Office of Gresik Regency has been carried out through the provision of digital information media, such as an official website and online-based population administration service applications. In the presence dimension, the local government provides various information related to population administration services, including requirements, procedures, service times, and the types of services available to the public. In the interaction dimension, the digital service system allows the public to communicate with the service office by submitting questions, complaints, or requests for information online. Meanwhile, in the transaction dimension, the public can submit requests for population documents, such as Family Cards, birth certificates, and other documents, through the digital service system. The implementation of e-government has positively impacted the efficiency, transparency, and ease of access to population administration services for the public. Therefore, the utilization of information technology in public services can serve as an important strategy for improving the quality of population administration services in local government.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the impact of leadership education and training on organizational service effectiveness within the Tambrauw Regency Government, Papua. Leadership training is an important instrument in developing the competencies of Civil Servants to enhance leadership capacity, managerial skills, and public service quality. However, its implementation needs evaluation to determine its impact on organizational performance and service effectiveness. This research uses a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis. The analytical framework applied is the Kirkpatrick training evaluation model, covering reaction, learning, behavior, and results. Data collection was conducted through documentation studies, policy analysis, and literature review on civil servant development and public services. The results indicate that leadership training has a positive impact on improving civil servant competencies and service effectiveness. At the reaction level, participants showed high satisfaction with training materials and methods. At the learning level, there was improvement in leadership knowledge and skills. At the behavior level, participants demonstrated more professional work attitudes, better coordination, and improved decision-making. At the results level, training contributed to improved service quality, efficiency, and innovation. However, challenges remain, including limited resources, hierarchical bureaucratic culture, and weak policy support. Therefore, strong local government commitment is needed to enhance training quality and organizational support. This study contributes to public administration research and offers practical insights for policy development.

Abstract

Digital transformation in the public sector has significantly driven service innovations, particularly in pension administration for Civil Servants (ASN). This study aims to analyze the development of digital-based public service innovations in pension administration while identifying the benefits and challenges associated with their implementation. The research employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method by examining relevant scholarly articles from national journals focusing on the digitalization of public services and pension systems. The literature selection process was conducted systematically to identify, evaluate, and synthesize key findings related to digital pension service innovations. The results indicate that digitalization through applications and electronic platforms enhances administrative efficiency, accelerates data verification, and improves the speed of pension fund disbursement. It also strengthens transparency and accountability while simplifying bureaucratic procedures and expanding service accessibility for retirees. However, several challenges remain, including low digital literacy among retirees, limited access to technological devices, and insufficient public awareness regarding digital service usage. The findings suggest that the success of digital-based public service innovations depends not only on technological availability but also on human resource readiness, institutional capacity, and the level of public acceptance. Therefore, a comprehensive strategy is required, including improving digital literacy, strengthening information technology infrastructure, and optimizing communication efforts to ensure effective adoption.

Abstract

Digital transformation in the public sector has driven various service innovations, including pension administration services for State Civil Apparatus (ASN). This study aims to analyze the development of digital-based public service innovations in pension administration and identify the benefits and challenges of their implementation. This study used the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method by reviewing various relevant scientific articles from national journals that discuss the digitalization of public services and pension administration. The literature selection process was carried out systematically to identify, evaluate, and synthesize research findings related to digital-based pension service innovations. The review results indicate that digitalization of pension administration services through the use of electronic service applications and platforms can improve administrative efficiency, accelerate data verification and pension fund disbursement, and increase transparency and accountability in public services. The implementation of digital services also contributes to simplifying bureaucratic procedures and increasing service accessibility for retirees. However, the literature review also revealed challenges in implementing digital pension services, including low digital literacy among retirees, limited access to technological devices, and suboptimal dissemination of service information. The findings of this study indicate that the success of digital-based service innovations depends not only on technology, but also on human resource readiness, the organizational capacity of government institutions, and the level of public acceptance of the use of digital technology. Therefore, developing digital-based pension services requires a comprehensive strategy.
