Abstract

SMP Negeri 5 Merlung is a public junior high school in Merlung Subdistrict that has utilized the DAPODIK system for online data processing management, enabling efficient sending and receiving of information to the government. This research analyzes IT governance on the DAPODIK system using the COBIT 5 framework, specifically the MEA01 domain (Monitor, Evaluate and Assess Performance and Conformance), which focuses on monitoring and evaluating performance and conformance. The research background is based on the need to maximize the utilization of the system at the school level. The main objectives are to determine the current and expected capability levels, as well as to provide improvement recommendations to achieve higher process maturity. The research method applies Assessment Process Activities, covering observation, interviews, identification of findings, gap analysis, and recommendations. The results show that the current capability level is at level 3 (established process), while the expected capability level is directed toward level 4 (predictable process). The implications of these findings provide practical recommendations such as routine monitoring enhancements, staff training, and integration of automation tools to bridge the capability gap, thereby improving the effectiveness of IT governance at SMP Negeri 5 Merlung sustainably.
