INTRODUCTION Today's life is almost inseparable from technology, almost all areas use it, both in terms of knowledge, economy, culture and are spoiled with technology. From those who usually do things using traditional tools, they are now using them with various kinds of technology such as computer technology and so on. In the 21st century, there are many developments in terms of education, government, economics and technology. There is no doubt, technological advances make it easier for us to communicate with other people. There are no regional restrictions between one another. People almost all over the world use existing technology, starting from cellphones, laptops, notebooks and other Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has become an important part of society and the world. Indonesia is a country that has not escaped the influence of advances in information and communication technology (Muhammad et al. , 2. In these gadgets, people . are pampered International Journal of Education. Social Studies. And Management (IJESSM) Volume 4. Issue 2. June 2024 Page 569-583 with very sophisticated applications, like it or not, users have to follow developments and are automatically influenced and end up using these Along with the development of information and communication technology, human life activities in various sectors are undergoing changes. Likewise, in the public service sector carried out by the government, developments in information and communication technology have given birth to a model of public service which is carried out through applications and web Bureaucratic and very manual government services are eliminated through the use of applications to become more flexible and more oriented towards user satisfaction. The emergence of various problems faced by society means there needs to be a program or policy that can solve the problems faced, these solutions can come from the community itself or the Government. As found in several villages in Barru Regency. In the current era, demands for the provision of services today are increasing.

Service is an activity or activities offered by organizations or individuals to customers or visitors, which are intangible and cannot be owned (Muhammad. Public administration services still use a manual system. It is feared that the manual system will make it easier for data stored on computer devices to become risky or lost and also that the manual system will result in people getting complicated village administration services such as making Family Cards (KK) which can take several days. Population Administration is a series of structuring and controlling activities in the publication of documents and Population Data through Population Registration. Civil Registration, management of Population Administration information and utilization of the results for public services and development of other sectors.

Figure 1. Conceptual Framework The proposed conceptual framework has several significant strengths, especially in the focus and relevance of the selected indicators, such as ease of use, time efficiency, user training, community participation, and technological The simplicity of this framework makes it easier to understand and apply, and simplifies the process of data collection and analysis. Each International Journal of Education. Social Studies. And Management (IJESSM) Volume 4. Issue 2. June 2024 Page 569-583 indicator can be measured using qualitative methods mentioned in the abstract, such as observation, interviews and documentation studies. This ensures that important elements related to the implementation and support of the Village SIAP application are properly evaluated. However, this framework also has some weaknesses that need to be Its simplicity may be too concise and does not cover other important factors such as data security and overall user satisfaction. In addition, this framework focuses more on qualitative aspects, so adding quantitative indicators can provide more objective data. There are no indicators that consider external factors such as changes in government policy or local economic conditions. The relationship between indicators also needs to be clarified to understand the influence of one indicator on another. It is recommended to add indicators that cover aspects of data security and user satisfaction, combine qualitative and quantitative methods, and develop models that show the relationship between indicators to make this conceptual framework more comprehensive and RESEARCH METHODE This research uses a descriptive qualitative research type which tends to use analysis with an inductive approach, namely research that aims to provide an overview of the implementation of public services based on the Village SIAP application in Pao-Pao Village. Tanete Rilau District. Barru Regency in improving Service Quality. According to Sugiyono .

Social Studies. And Management (IJESSM) Volume 4. Issue 2. June 2024 Page 569-583 This certainly makes it easier for us as application users and makes it easier for us to provide services to the community. From the results of the interview above, several conclusions and descriptions can be drawn regarding changes in the public service process before and after using the SIAP Village application in Pao-Pao Village. Before the SIAP Village application existed, the public service process in Pao-Pao Village was quite complicated and took a long time. People have to wait for hours to process documents, especially when it comes to processing application forms such as birth certificates. The manual process of filling out forms is also a factor that causes increased waiting times. Apart from that, incomplete documents are a serious problem that requires people to go home to complete them, which in the end can slow down the service process or even hinder their application. After the SIAP Village application was introduced, significant changes occurred in the public service process. Village officials have been given training regarding application operation, from creating an account to writing an application letter. This results in efficiency in service because the process becomes faster and more effective. People no longer have to wait for hours because filling out forms and processing files can be done easily through the application, without having to make a direct visit to the village office. Thus, the SIAP Desa application has had a positive impact in improving the quality and efficiency of public services in Pao-Pao Village. Faster and easier processes, as well as the use of technology that makes it easier to access and operate applications, provide a clear picture of the positive transformation in providing services to the community. Quality of population administration services in Pao-Pao village Based on the results of an interview with one of the Pao-Pao village staff, it was said that "the existence of this application really makes the staff's work easier because they no longer need to type the letter format manually.
