Abstract

Today, the application of information technology is an important requirement in a government organization, this is to facilitate archive management in bringing order to the document assets of an organization. One of them is the Ngrejo Village Government Office which has implemented the SIMANIS application in supporting the management of organizational records. The purpose of this study is to find out how the implementation of the SIMANIS application (Village Information and Administration Management System) at the Ngrejo Blitar Village Office is in archive management and what obstacles are faced by the manager. The research method is descriptive qualitative with data sources obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation. The informants in this study were the Head of Ngrejo Village, the head of planning as the officer responsible for managing the archives, and the administrative and general heads as officers who assisted in managing the archives. The data analysis technique uses data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of this study indicate that archive management at the Ngrejo Village Office has implemented information technology, namely the SIMANIS application which aims to improve officer performance, improve services, and maintain archive security. The obstacles faced in implementing the SIMANIS application are unstable internet networks because SIMANIS is basically a web-based archive management application. For this reason, the Ngrejo Village government should improve the quality of the internet network so that when officers input archive data it can run smoothly.
