In order to obtain accurate and
reliable data, field supervision of secondary data collection supporting
Quarterly GDP is crucial. This survey involves several relevant departments
including the Tegal District UPPD (Samsat), the Transportation Department, and
the DPMPTSP, conducted simultaneously on the same day, Monday, October 14,
2024.
The collection of supporting data for Quarterly GDP aims to provide a
comprehensive overview of the regional economic development. This data serves
as the basis for formulating appropriate policies to enhance the economy.
Field supervision is carried out through visits to selected respondents for
coordination and to establish better relationships in the future. All relevant
departments, namely the Samsat Office, the Transportation Department, and the
DPMPTSP, are visited one by one to meet with the data handlers and ensure that
the data will be submitted to BPS Kabupaten Tegal within the specified
timeframe.
Each department/OPD has specific data specifications including:
- Samsat Office: Collecting data on new and used motor
vehicles;
- Transportation Department: Recording the number of
passengers for all terminals in the Tegal District and also ferry
transportation if applicable;
- DPMPTSP: Gathering data related to investments and
business permits in the region.
In this data collection method, direct interviews are conducted to ensure that
the required data aligns with the request form and to establish better
coordination with the department/OPD respondents, considering that the required
data will continue periodically. Therefore, if there is any data discrepancy,
it can be confirmed directly to obtain valid and up-to-date data.
Effective field supervision ensures that the supporting data collected for
Quarterly GDP is accurate and reliable. Coordination and cooperation among the
department/OPD respondents are key to success in obtaining quality data, which
is subsequently used for making appropriate economic policies. (haka)
