The existence of a gender focal point in each regional apparatus organization is

intended to be able to oversee the implementation of gender mainstreaming

into every policy and program that is prepared so that it can run effectively. The

purpose of this study is to determine the plan to improve the performance of

gender focal point in each regional apparatus organization to an integrated

performance measurement system based on Soft Systems Methodology (SSM) in

Solok Municipality, West Sumatra Province. This study uses a qualitative analysis

method, namely the Soft Systems Methodology (SSM) with root definition

components, compiling an image called a rich picture, and analyzing six

CATWOE elements. Data collection techniques use Focus Group Discussion and

in-depth interviews with informants determined by purposive sampling

technique. The result achieved from the research is to obtain an integrated focal

point gender performance improvement plan based on a four-step integrated

performance measurement system based on Soft Systems Methodology (SSM).

The gender focal point consists of gender-sensitive individuals whose function is

to encourage gender mainstreaming in the planning and budgeting policy-

making process in the regions. The existence of a gender focal point is to

encourage the awareness of all planning teams in each regional organizational

unit so that they can develop programs and activities in their work units by

taking into account the issue of gender equality. The issue of gender equality is

used to reduce the gap between the gender development index and the human

development index, so that in the preparation of programs and activities, male

and female beneficiaries should be considered equally.
