Abstract

Policy analysts hold important positions in government. One of the causes of failure to develop superior public policies is the absence of policy analysts in the government, or they are there but do not work well, or if they are already working well, they are unable to produce great policies. In Bandung City Government, the role of policy analyst is assumed by the Bandung Mayor’s Expert Staff. The research objective is to describe and analyze the role of the Bandung Mayor’s Expert Staff in supporting the strengthening of the role as a policy analyst in the Bandung City Government. This research was conducted using a qualitative approach and descriptive methods, while the data collection techniques used were in-depth interviews, observation and documentation study. The results of the study concluded that the implementation of policies regarding the role of the Bandung Mayor’s Expert Staff was not empirically not optimal in supporting policies within the Bandung City Government. The findings are indicated by the absence of an outcome capable of producing strategic policies. The factors that influence the implementation of this policy consist of factors of communication, resources, disposition, bureaucratic structure, and political factors. Important elements contained in these factors, such as elements of clarity of communication, facilities and infrastructure, as well as work procedures guidelines, have not been fulfilled, thus becoming an obstacle to the implementation of this policy.
