Implementation Of Integrated Dynamic Archive Information System (Srikandi) At Village Level In Indonesia

Abstract

This article aims to provide an overview of e-Government implementation in local government through the Integrated Dynamic Archive Information System (Srikandi) Application in Sinjai Regency. This article uses qualitative research methods. Data were collected through observation at the research site, interviews with informants consisting of the village head, secretary, heads of public service and governance sections, Srikandi application operator, and community members. Documentation used Srikandi system data. Collected data were grouped and analyzed based on the required types and needs, followed by drawing conclusions. The results show that the application of Srikandi in Mannanti Village has proceeded well and in accordance with the National Archives of the Republic of Indonesia (ANRI) Regulation No. 4 of 2021, though not yet optimal. Findings include: (a) Support from the village leadership and apparatus has been provided fully, through directives, supervision, and application use in daily activities. (b) The capacity of staff in operating the application still requires further training due to continuous updates. (c) The value of Srikandi's implementation is positive, such as acceleration of administrative processes, efficiency of archive storage space, reduced paper usage, and flexibility in document signing and distribution. Overall, the application speeds up public service, although general access is not yet open and limited computers and internet networks remain main obstacles for optimization. Thus, Srikandi provides significant value in supporting digital transformation in public services at the local government level.
