Abstract

Commitment Making Officers (Pejabat Pembuat Komitmen/PPK) in the
implementation of construction projects at the Health Office of Payakumbuh City
are often appointed from structural officials who have educational backgrounds in
the health sector. The formulation of the problems in this study are: (1) how the
forms of legal protection for Commitment Making Officers (PPK; (2) what
obstacles are faced by Commitment Making Officers (PPK) with a health
background in the implementation of construction works; and (3) what efforts are
made as a consequence of legal protection for Commitment Making Officers (PPK)
with a health background in the implementation of construction works at the Health
Office of Payakumbuh City.The results of the study show that the forms of legal
protection available consist of two types, namely preventive legal protection and
repressive legal protection. The obstacles faced by the Commitment Making
Officers include: (1) lack of technical competence in construction; (2) the
complexity of regulations related to government procurement of goods/services and
construction services; and (3) legal risks and concerns about criminalization. Efforts
made to address these issues include improving the competence of PPK in
construction and government procurement of goods and services, as well as
providing legal protection from the local government through the establishment of
Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) as a form of preventive protection by the
Inspectorate and the local government.
