Abstrak
Keputusan pemerintah pusat telah bulat yaitu kebijakan Penyederhanaan Birokrasi (Bureaucratic Trimming) dan harus segera dilaksanakan oleh kementerian/lembaga maupun pemerintah daerah. Meskipun beberapa K/L sudah rampung melaksanakan penyederhanaan dimaksud namun belum tentu bagi pemerintah daerah termasuk salah satunya Pemerintah Kota Bukittinggi. Adanya dualisme arahan maupun regulasi dari Kemenpan dan Kemendagri membuat implementasi kebijakan ini terhambat. Maka tujuan dari tulisan ini adalah untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor penghambat daripada implementasi kebijakan Bureaucratic Trimming khususnya di Pemerintah Kota Bukittinggi. Merupakan penelitian kualitatif dengan metode pengumpulan data dengan cara wawancara mendalam, observasi non partisipatif dan penelaahan sumber data internal maupun eksternal yang terkait. Penentuan informan dengan cara Purposive Sampling. Hasil temuan dimana pada Dimensi Komunikasi, terdapatnya perbedaan arahan Menpan RB dan Mendagri terkait penyelesaian penyetaraan jabatan Dimensi Sumber Daya, tidak semua jabatan struktural dapat dialihkan ke jabatan fungsional serta belum tersedianya beberapa jabatan fungsional yang cocok. Selanjutnya hilangnya pola karier seperti mutasi pegawai dan fakta bahwa penyederhanaan birokrasi justru membebankan APBD Kota Bukittinggi. Dimensi Struktur Birokrasi, ditemukannya kerancuan prosedur dalam hal fokus Bureaucratic Trimming, antara mengutamakan melakukan penyetaraan jabatan ke fungsional atau mendahulukan melaksanakan penyerderhanaan struktur. Terakhir Dimensi Disposisi, Pemerintah Kota Bukittinggi sepenuhnya mematuhi instruksi pemerintah pusat dengan telah menyampaikan pengusulan penyetaraan jabatan ke fungsional pada Bulan April 2021 ke Kemendagri. Namun dengan terbitnya Permenpan No. 17 Tahun 2021, pemkot Bukittinggi masih menunggu arahan lebih lanjut mengingat pembinaan dan pengawasan penyelenggaraan pemerintahan daerah adalah dibawah Kemendagri.
