Sat, 19 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the policy on simplifying the organizational structure within the Regional Secretariat of Bengkulu Province. Bureaucratic reform has become the government's main agenda in enhancing the effectiveness and efficiency of governance. However, in its implementation, this policy faces various challenges such as resistance to change, the readiness of human resources, and its effectiveness in improving organizational performance. This study employs a qualitative approach with a case study method through in-depth interviews and policy document analysis. The findings indicate that organizational structure simplification contributes to accelerating decision-making and increasing bureaucratic efficiency. However, the main challenges encountered include the lack of readiness among officials, changes in work patterns, and an imbalance in workload distribution. Therefore, strategic measures are needed to strengthen human resource capacity, establish clear technical guidelines, and enhance cross-unit coordination to achieve the effectiveness of this policy.

Mon, 21 Apr 2025 00:00:00 +0000

In measuring and analyzing the service quality of academic administration in the form of the aksi.ut.ac.id application within Open University of Bengkulu, the researcher used the SERVQUAL (Service Quality) method. This is the most well-known and commonly used evaluation method for measuring the quality of academic administration services at universities. The analysis of academic administration service quality through the aksi.ut.ac.id application will reveal which dimensions of the five SERVQUAL dimensions are not met based on the researcher's experience as a user of the application. Although broadly speaking, academic services at Open University of Bengkulu can be categorized as satisfying the desires and needs of students and alumni, especially for the aksi.ut.ac.id application, there are two obstacles that the researcher believes reduce the quality of academic services at Open University of Bengkulu, namely the dimensions of reliability and assurance. These factors contribute to the decline in the quality of academic services at Open University of Bengkulu. This research was conducted at Open University of Bengkulu because the researcher works at Open University of Bengkulu, which also provides access to the use of the aksi.ut.ac.id application, and the researcher is also a user of the application in serving students and alumni. The researcher is interested in further investigating the quality aspects that have not been fulfilled by the implementation of the aksi.ut.ac.id application, so that the objectives of academic administration service quality have not been fully achieved.

Public unrest in Taba Penanjung District is increasing due to various public order issues that have not been resolved optimally. Based on public complaints, there are several issues that are of primary concern. First, the rampant practice of dimly lit stalls that are suspected of being a covert place for prostitution activities. Second, indications of prostitution practices that are increasingly disturbing residents and are considered to damage the morals and image of the region. Third, the problem of scattered garbage, especially around the area of residents' gardens, which not only disrupts the aesthetics of the environment but also has the potential to pollute community agricultural land. These phenomena have caused deep unrest among the community and demand firmer action in enforcing Regional Regulation Number 14 of 2013. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive analytical approach.

This study reveals the process of enforcing regional regulations in detail, structured, and systematically, so that it can identify the social realities that occur in Taba Penanjung District, Central Bengkulu Regency related to the implementation of these regional regulations.

Budi Trapsilo — Sun, 15 Jun 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This research focuses on the implementation of Bengkulu Mayor Regulation Number 20 of 2022 concerning Regional Innovation through the HD OTO Program. The HD OTO Program is a public service innovation in which the Mayor's and Deputy Mayor's official vehicles are lent to prospective brides and grooms for use on their wedding day falling on weekends. The purpose of this research is to analyze the implementation of the HD OTO Program based on four main aspects of Mulgan and Albury's (2003) Public Sector Innovation Theory: creation of new ideas, effective implementation, increased efficiency and effectiveness, and sustainability and scalability. This research employs a qualitative method with a descriptive analytical approach. Data collection was conducted through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The research findings indicate that the HD OTO Program is a creative innovation that utilizes government assets during non-operational times to serve the community. The program is implemented with a structured yet flexible execution mechanism, supported by specific budget allocations and trained human resources. This program has demonstrated significant resource optimization and positive impact on public services, evidenced by a 95% user satisfaction rate and an increase in public trust in the government from 75% to 84%. The program also has continuous evaluation mechanisms and high replication potential. The main challenges in program implementation include limitations in the number of vehicles and personnel, as well as documentation and monitoring systems that are not yet fully integrated. This research yields six propositions that can serve as a foundation for the development of public service innovation theory and practice more contextual to conditions in Indonesia.
