Analysis of Low Budget Realization for Local Government Priority Programs: A Case Study on the Transportation Department of DKI Jakarta

摘要

This research initiative aims to analyze the performance of Daerah Khusus Ibukota (DKI) Jakarta province from 2013 to 2016. This assessment is important because the budget realization of the local administration is not maximized. The Department of Transportation was established as the research unit for the present study. The analysis was conducted by comparing the strategic plan related to priority programs for the development of the public transport system, especially road and rail-based transportation. The results of the investigation reveal the existence of certain weaknesses and barriers in the accomplishment of the priority programs. It is concluded that comprehensive strategy management and the measurement of performance are critically required. Hence, this research attempts to develop a suitable and balanced scorecard to instigate improvement in the Department of Transportation's performance.
