BACKGROUND 

According to Presidential Regulation (Perpres) No. 76/2013 on the Public Service Management System, the Government of Indonesia (led by the Ministry of Administrative and Bureaucratic Reform, or KemenPAN-RB) established the Sistem Pengelolaan Pengaduan Pelayanan Publik Nasional (SP4N) – Layanan Aspirasi dan Pengaduan Online Rakyat (LAPOR!). SP4N-LAPOR! is designated to become a nationally integrated, one-stop system for managing public complaints. The system is aimed at increasing government accountability and improving government responsiveness for the implementation of public services. The system is also intended to increase the public’s participation in reporting complaints and dissatisfaction with the delivery of public services, both at national and local levels.

Law has mandated that SP4N-LAPOR! provide a complaint-handling service, and that a competent officer be assigned responsibility for the service (as stated in Law No. 25/2019 on Public Service, Article 36). This mandate also has a derivative regulation in KemenPAN-RB Ministerial Decree No. 24/2014, Article 1E on Pedoman Penyelenggaraan Pengelolaan Pengaduan Pelayanan Publik, which states that the officer who handles public complaints must have a structural or functional position within the ministry. This functional position will fulfil the lack of human resources for handling SP4N-LAPOR!

It is now necessary to develop a civil servant credit score for this functional position, to be part of the draft regulation on Jabatan Fungsional Pengelola Pengaduan Layanan Publik. The credit score will ensure the quality of the complaint-handling service officer by guaranteeing the objectivity, quality, transparency, staffing administration requirements, and the smooth implementation of civil servant management, including the civil service officer. USAID CEGAH will hire a consultant to assist KemenPAN-RB to draft the civil servant credit score. The consultant will work closely with USAID CEGAH and frequently consult with KemenPAN-RB to ensure that correct technical guidelines are being followed in establishing a credit score for the public complaint-handling officer.
