Kawó Banwa: development and evaluation of a budget monitoring information system for urban barangays in San Jose, Occidental Mindoro
Keywords:
budget monitoring information system, budget tracking, allocation and management, system applicationAbstract
The Philippine government’s commitment to promoting transparent and accountable local governance led to the development of KAWÓ BANWA, a budget monitoring information system designed for urban barangays in San Jose, Occidental Mindoro. This system addresses misallocation and mismanagement of funds, often leading to delayed projects. It addresses challenges, including the need for capacity building among local government officials, limited transparency and accountability in budget processes, inadequate stakeholder engagement, and insufficient access to modern technology. KAWÓ BANWA provides a secure and user-friendly platform for streamlined budget tracking and management, utilizing Visual Basic 2022 and Microsoft Access. The researchers conducted compatibility testing to ensure adaptability to different operating environments, and an evaluation found the system to be highly effective. Implementing KAWÓ BANWA promises to improve transparency, accountability, and resource allocation to strengthen significantly local governance and public service delivery in San Jose, Occidental Mindoro.
