Abstract

The Mekar Baru Village Government formed a Village-Owned Enterprise (BUMDes) as the driving force for the village economy, but in its formation there was still minimal guidance from the Regional Government so that several problems emerged, including the lack of training provided to the community in managing BUMDes, lack of socialization to the community, lack of supervision carried out so that BUMDes are not running optimally and there is a lack of government assistance in providing solutions to problems faced by BUMDes. The purpose of this study was to find out how the Implementation of the Village Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) Program in Mekar Baru Village, Datuk Tanah Datar District, Batubara Regency. This study uses implementation theory from Van Metter dan Van Horn in Subianto (2020). The method used is descriptive qualitative. Data collection techniques used are interviews, observation, library research and documentation. The results of the research based on the Van Metter and Van Horn Implementation Theories with their respective parameters show that the Standards and Objectives of the BUMDes program are not clear because the local government has not formulated a clear implementation process, so that the BUMDes Program Implementation does not work in accordance with regulations or the legal basis, namely Permendes PDTT No.11 of 2021 concerning the Establishment, Administration and Management and Dissolution of BUMDes. Resources are still lacking such as competent Human Resources in managing BUMDes. The communication of the Implementing Body built by BUMDes is still lacking, so it does not get support from the community and other stakeholders. Characteristics of the Implementing Agency which does not show alacrity in inviting the community to participate in BUMDes activities. The economic environment influences the community to choose to participate in the BUMDes program and the Mekar Baru Village Community does not want to participate because the income they get from the BUMDes program is only small. The attitude of the Mekar Baru BUMDes executors who are slow to respond to the needs of the community has created a feeling of disappointment for the community towards the Regional Government and shows an attitude of indifference to the BUMDes program. The attitude of the Executor as an Implementor is also not fast and responsive in resolving the problems faced by BUMDes Mekar Baru, this is due to the lack of funds owned so that the BUMDes program does not run optimally.
