Guidance regarding the Evaluation Indicators for Sectoral Statistics Implementation (EPSS) for Domain 3: Statistical Business Processes

In collaboration with the Batang Regency Communication and Information Office (Diskominfo), the Batang Regency Central Statistics Agency (BPS) has once again conducted a guidance session focused on the Evaluation of Sectoral Statistics Implementation (EPSS)—specifically regarding Domain 3: Statistical Business Processes. Anis Yuliastuti, a Junior Expert Statistician, led the session and underscored the critical importance of a structured statistical workflow. She detailed the various stages of the statistical business process, ranging from planning and field data collection to processing, analysis, and the final dissemination of information. The objective is for every regional government agency in Batang Regency to produce data that is not only accurate and reliable but also robust enough to serve as a foundation for public policy-making that directly benefits the community.

This guidance initiative is particularly crucial given that the Statistical Development Index (IPS) has now become a key strategic performance indicator for the local government. The IPS score is more than just a metric or a report card for BPS; it serves as a tangible benchmark of the local government’s commitment and maturity in managing sectoral data and advancing the "One Data Indonesia" (Satu Data Indonesia) initiative. Through strengthened collaboration and a deeper understanding of statistical business processes, the Batang Regency Government remains optimistic about its ability to continuously improve data governance, thereby supporting regional development driven by precise, data-informed decision-making.
