This study aims to evaluate the performance of Digilib services at Amikom University Purwokerto using the Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) version 3 framework in the Service Operation domain. The phenomenon underlying this study is the indication of a decline in the operational effectiveness of Digilib services as seen from the inconsistency of system performance, access speed, and limited service features. This study uses an evaluative quantitative approach by collecting data through a questionnaire compiled based on five main processes in the Service Operation domain, namely Event Management, Incident Management, Request Fulfillment, Problem Management, and Access Management. The research respondents were library staff directly involved in the management and operation of Digilib services. Data were analyzed using a process maturity model (Process Maturity Model) to assess service capabilities based on a scale of 0–5. The results of the analysis indicate that the overall maturity level of Digilib services is at Level 4 (Managed Process), with an average value of 4.07. This indicates that the operational process has been controlled and measured through certain performance indicators, although there are still opportunities for improvement towards Level 5 (Optimized), especially in the Request Fulfillment and Problem Management domains. These findings contribute to strengthening IT service governance in the higher education sector and provide strategic recommendations for improving automation, system integration, and data-driven service management. The implications of this research encourage the development of policies to improve the quality of digital services and serve as a reference for further research on ITIL implementation in academic settings.

Technological innovations have brought significant changes in the management of public administration, including the procurement of goods and services. E-Catalog is one of the innovations implemented to improve efficiency, transparency, and accessibility in the procurement process. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the use of E-Catalog in the city of Surabaya based on five main criteria: effort, cost-efficiency, result, cost-effectiveness, and impact. The results of the study show that E-Catalog is able to speed up the procurement process of goods and services by providing direct access to the information needed by users, without going through a time-consuming manual tender process. The system also cuts operational and administrative costs, such as printed documents and formal meetings, providing budget efficiency of up to 10% per year. In addition, user satisfaction levels increased with more than 85% of respondents feeling helped by this system. E-Catalogs not only save time and costs, but also increase transparency and accountability in procurement. All transactions are digitally documented, making the audit process easier and preventing potential irregularities. This implementation also encourages the empowerment of local MSMEs by providing easier access to government markets. Another positive impact is the increase in public trust in the government, which is supported by a transparent and inclusive system. Nonetheless, challenges such as limited technology infrastructure and intensive training need still need to be addressed to ensure the sustainability of these systems. With the integration of blockchain technology and strengthening regulations, E-Katalog has the potential to become an effective and efficient model for the procurement of goods and services, not only in Indonesia, but also at the global level. This research offers strategic recommendations for the development of better technology-based procurement policies and practices in the future.

This community service initiative aims to educate and assist in the implementation of an Internal Control System ICS at Minimarket Malika as a strategic effort to safeguard assets and enhance operational effectiveness and efficiency. The ICS applied includes a systematic recording process for inventory, purchase prices, and selling prices. These records are intended to ensure that all transactions are properly documented and accountable.Internal evaluations are conducted regularly through annual stock-taking activities, which involve verifying and matching inventory data recorded in the system with the actual physical stock in the store or warehouse. This activity serves as a critical benchmark for assessing business stability, the accuracy of inventory records, and the overall effectiveness of inventory management. Any transactional errors identified during sales operations are corrected immediately in real-time to prevent error accumulation and potential financial losses. The role of management is essential, particularly in maintaining business continuity through improved service quality and the timely fulfillment of customer needs. In response to intense competition and dynamic market changes, Minimarket Malika adopts adaptive strategies such as price adjustments, excellent customer service, and a broader product assortment to meet diverse consumer demands. To prevent fraud, the minimarket has installed CCTV cameras at strategic locations and provides training for employees on how to detect counterfeit money and suspicious behavior. The ICS also supports risk management in inventory by monitoring the movement of goods in real-time, allowing management to make accurate decisions about which products need to be stocked in accordance with current consumer demand trends.Through the consistent and comprehensive application of an internal control system, Minimarket Malika is expected to improve its competitiveness while maintaining the integrity and sustainability of its business operations amid ongoing economic challenges. Furthermore, this approach serves as a practical model for other small and medium enterprises (SMEs) aiming to strengthen their internal governance and adapt to an increasingly complex retail environment.

PT Jadi Kaya Raya Bersama, founded in 2024 in Banyumas, Indonesia, focuses on providing reliable financial recording solutions for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) through fintech-based applications. The platform is designed to support transaction recording, financial monitoring, and reporting processes to improve MSME financial management. Despite its significant potential, several technical issues have hindered the application’s performance and service quality. Key problems identified include disruptions in the WhatsApp Bot API, user authentication errors, and the lack of integration with banking systems and digital wallet services. These challenges affect transaction recording accuracy, operational efficiency, and the security of user financial data. To identify the root causes of these issues and propose appropriate solutions, a system audit was conducted using the COBIT framework as a governance and management evaluation tool. The audit process involved assessing system performance, control mechanisms, and IT service management practices. The results indicate that API disruptions were primarily caused by network instability and configuration errors, which led to interruptions in automated transaction recording services. Meanwhile, authentication problems were associated with weak login mechanisms and insufficient identity verification processes. In addition, the application’s inability to integrate with banking and e-money services created limitations in transaction synchronization and reduced overall user convenience. Based on these findings, several strategic recommendations are proposed. These include optimizing API performance, strengthening authentication systems through the implementation of Two-Factor Authentication (2FA), and developing integration capabilities with banking institutions and digital wallet platforms. The implementation of these improvements is expected to enhance system efficiency, data security, and service quality. Ultimately, strengthening the fintech application’s performance will support MSMEs financial management and contribute to sustainable digital economic growth in Indonesia.

Hospitals have various operational activities, including production, marketing and financial recording activities. The concept of operations management is very important for managing hospital operations. Globalization has had an impact on changes in the strategic environment. Globalization has triggered the emergence of competition in various fields. With this competition, every hospital strives and is required to improve the quality and quality of services both in terms of methods and technology used to support services. Quality control must be implemented and maintained properly as a value that has an impact on all aspects of the hospital, one of which is increasing turnover from the business side. A quality management system is an arrangement that ensures the achievement of planned quality goals and objectives in hospital services. To carry out quality hospital services, it is necessary to implement good operational management as a means of supporting high quality hospital services that have value in the point of view of the community. This phenomenon exists, therefore the authors use the scoping review method as a research method. This aims to review previous literature that has explored the quality of hospital services and the implementation of operational management as a means of quality control in hospitals.
