Abstract
This study aims to design an effective governance framework for the utilization of big data as a complement to official statistical data, while preventing new complexities in data management and utilization processes. The research employs a quantitative descriptive approach based on the COBIT 2019 framework, focusing on the governance objectives selected through the design factor process, namely EDM01 (Ensured Governance Framework Setting and Maintenance) and EDM05 (Ensured Stakeholder Engagement). The object of this research was the official statistics office in Balikpapan City, East Kalimantan, with the scope limited to governance policy design and excluding technical software or tool implementation. Data were collected through questionnaires based on the COBIT 2019 Process Assessment Model, supporting documents, and stakeholder discussions, then analyzed through design factor analysis, capability level assessment, and gap analysis. The results indicate that both EDM01 and EDM05 are currently at Capability Level 2 (Performed Process), with most activities classified as Partially Achieved and Largely Achieved, indicating that governance processes have been implemented but are not yet fully standardized and consistently managed. Based on these findings, the target state (To-Be) is set at Capability Level 3 (Defined). Recommendations include formulating Big Data governance policies, establishing governance structures, developing standard operating procedures, implementing periodic monitoring and evaluation, and strengthening stakeholder engagement and communication to support structured, integrated, and accountable big data governance.
The findings are that companies that implement organized governance systems record dramatic advancement in the quality of data, compliance rates, and the accuracy in analytics, and the need to incorporate governance frameworks in enterprise analytics strategies to promote sustainable data-driven change is highlighted.

This study developed a Shared Governance Model in the context of the strategic implementation of Executive Order No. 70 (EO 70), which institutionalized the Whole-of-Nation Approach to End Local Communist Armed Conflict (ELCAC) in the Philippines. The research examined the current realities and challenges of governance and identified the critical factors that influence effective shared governance among government agencies, local government units, indigenous communities, and other stakeholders. A mixed-methods research design was employed, combining qualitative and quantitative approaches. Qualitative data were gathered through Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) with implementers and subject-matter experts from the development, security, and local governance sectors. Quantitative data were collected from 300 household respondents across the six provinces and cities of the Davao Region. Data analysis utilized thematic analysis, Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). Findings revealed persistent challenges in communication, coordination, collaboration, political dynamics, sociocultural inclusion, and economic resource allocation. The EFA extracted six governance dimensions, while subsequent CFA and model fit assessments resulted in a refined five-factor Shared Governance Model consisting of Collaborative Government Communication, Interagency Collaboration, Balanced Partnership Advocacy, Inclusive Governance, and Indigenous Vulnerability Dynamics. The model demonstrated satisfactory reliability and validity, indicating that these dimensions significantly contribute to effective governance and sustainable peacebuilding efforts under EO 70. The study concludes that shared governance is a multidimensional construct that strengthens stakeholder participation, institutional coordination, and community engagement. It recommends enhanced interagency mechanisms, inclusive governance practices, strengthened indigenous participation, and transparent resource management to improve the strategic implementation of EO 70 and promote long-term peace, security, and development in conflict-affected communities.

This study examined the influence of good governance and digitalization on the efficiency of the Integrated Business Permit and Licensing System (IBPLS) in selected Local Government Units (LGUs) in Bukidnon, Philippines. Anchored on the Technology Acceptance Model, Good Governance Theory, and the Digital Government Evolution Model, the study employed a quantitative descriptive-correlational design involving 400 Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression analysis. Results revealed that good governance, digitalization, and IBPLS efficiency were generally rated high. Significant positive relationships were found among the variables, with responsiveness, transparency, accessibility, and process automation emerging as significant predictors of IBPLS efficiency. These findings suggest that governance quality and digitalization jointly contribute to more efficient, transparent, and citizen-centered business permitting services. The study contributes to the e-governance and public administration literature by providing empirical evidence on the complementary role of governance and digital transformation in improving local government service delivery in a rural context. Practically, the findings support ongoing efforts of LGUs and policymakers to strengthen digital permitting systems and governance reforms.

Purpose: Good governance practices in transparency, accountability, responsibility, fairness, and stakeholder participation are core principles that ensure governance mechanisms are not merely procedural, but also creates a sustainable service management environment that aligns governance conditions with public interests.
Methods/Study design/approach: Through the integration of COBIT 2019 and ITIL v4 frameworks, along with structured staff interviews, service performance analysis, and direct operational observations, several important domains emerged, indicating the need for management development.
Result/Findings: The results show that several COBIT 2019 domains, APO07 (Managed Human Resources), DSS01 (Managed Operations), BAI03 (Managed Solutions Identification and Build), EDM02 (Ensured Benefits Delivery), and MEA01 (Managed Performance and Conformance Monitoring) and ITIL v4 domains, Information Security Management, Organizational Change Management & Workforce, Continual Improvement require immediate improvement with the Capability Index scored 46.875% classified as Partially Achieved (15–49%) and classified in Level 2 (Managed Process). COBIT 2019 Design Factors show urgent areas for improvement in DF-4 (IT Related Issues), DF-6 (Compliance Requirements), and DF-7 (Role of IT). Balanced Scorecard (BSC) was also evaluated governance performance from four perspectives, financial, customer, internal process, and learning & growth, scoring 69,4% and classified as moderate. Key Performance Indicator (KPI) recommendations were also proposed, e.g., staff training increasement, operational IT services availability, user-based IT solutions, IT process measurement, security accidents reporting, effective workforce, and user-oriented IT developments.
Novelty/Originality/Value: This study proposes an integrated COBIT 2019 and ITIL v4 approach, embedding good governance principles for sustainable service management in Museum Electronic-Based Government System (SPBE) and addressing the gap between governance conditions and public interests.
Digital transformation in regional financial planning and budgeting requires integrated data, substantive validation, process traceability, and accountable decision-making. However, the Regional Government Information System has not fully resolved limitations in data quality, substantive validation, interoperability, system stability, user capacity, and evaluation traceability. This study aims to analyze the existing digital governance of regional financial planning and budgeting, identify factors affecting effectiveness and transparency, and formulate a digital governance model. A qualitative approach with an embedded single-case study was conducted at the Directorate General of Regional Financial Development. Data were collected from 16 purposively selected informants through in-depth interviews, non-participant observation, and document analysis, followed by data condensation, thematic coding, data display, and verification. The findings show that digital governance has shifted regional budgeting from fragmented arrangements toward a more integrated and standardized ecosystem, improving procedural effectiveness and transparency, while substantive weaknesses remain in data quality, validation, audit trails, evaluation tracking, and interoperability. The novelty is the Integrative-Substantive Digital Governance Model, which positions digital governance as a socio-technical and institutional ecosystem integrating data quality, traceability, interoperability, accountability, and central-regional collaboration to strengthen regional budget governance.

Objective: Governmental and public sector entities face ever-increasing pressures for enhanced governance, more accountability, better services to the public, etc. It is usually argued that both planning and risk management are important tools for good management. However, limited empirical research is available about how the combined effect of planning and risk management contributes to improving governance in local governments and especially in the Gulf region. In Muscat Municipality, we examined the linkages between strategic planning, risk management and the performance of governance.
Theoretical Framework: The governance performance was captured into three aspects of governance: managerial, resourceful and project governance.
Methodology: We followed a cross-sectional quantitative research design methodology, where data were gathered using a structured questionnaire from 303 respondents from various departments and managerial levels within Muscat Municipality. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis.
Results: Results show that both strategic planning and risk management had positive effects on the improvement of governance performance in all three dimensions; while strategic planning had higher significance as a predictor of the success of governance performance and more relevance to project governance, focusing on prioritization, coordination, and performance measurement. Likewise, risk management contributed positively towards governance performance through improving the effectiveness of the controls, making good decisions by managers, and dealing efficiently with internal uncertainties. The current research contributes to the strategic management and enterprise risk management research streams by examining the role of Omani municipalities (an under-studied area) in strategic risk management.
