This research examines the effectiveness of implementing the Integrated Dynamic Archiving Information System (SRIKANDI) at the Ministry of Religious Affairs Office in Lhokseumawe City. Based on efforts to realize a more effective and efficient government through the utilization of technology and informatics as mandated in Presidential Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia number 95 of 2018 concerning the electronic-based government system. Through the Circular Letter of the Secretary General of the Ministry of Religious Affairs Number 31 of 2022, SRIKANDI has been mandatory since December 1, 2022, aimed at supporting the Electronic-Based Government System (SPBE) by enhancing transparency, accountability, and efficiency in archive management. The research method used is the descriptive qualitative analysis method. Data collection was carried out through interviews, observations, and documentation. The research results show that there are four obstacles faced in the implementation of SRIKANDI. First, the low understanding and skills of employees in using the application; second, the lack of guidance and socialization from the leadership; third, the limitations of facilities and infrastructure; and fourth, the lack of coordination between work units. The efforts to achieve effectiveness include enhancing training, forming special teams, improving system reliability, and providing adequate facilities. This research concludes that although the implementation of SRIKANDI is not yet optimal, there are still several obstacles. Improvement and enhancement measures are continuously being carried out to achieve more efficient and transparent archive management in order to support the comprehensive implementation of SPBE.
