TRACKING TRANSPARENCY
VIA SUBAYBAYAN PORTAL

Department of the Interior and Local
Government (DILG) in Bataan has officially
introduced the upgraded SubayBayan
system to the Local Government Units
(LGUs) during the conduct of Provincial
Roll-out of the SubayBAYAN Project
Monitoring and Reporting System at the
Mansion Garden Hotel, Subic Bay, Freeport
Area, Zambales on Oct. 22, 2018.

Bataan, being the first province in Central
Luzon that conducted this provincial roll-
out activity, is now a SubayBAYAN ready by
November 2018.

The activity aims to capacitate Data
Encoder, and City/Municipality Local
Government Operations Officers (C/
MLGOOs) and LGU Focal Persons with the
required knowledge and skills in using the
SubayBayan system.

Formerly known as the Enhanced
Programs and Project Management System
(E-PPMS), SubayBAYAN with a tagline,
“Subaybayan and Proyektong Bayan” is a
portal providing the public with an accurate
information on the implementation of
Office of the Project Development Services
Locally Funded Projects

Provincial Director Myra Moral- Soriano
said during the opening remarks, “We want
the public to know, na merong kaaya-ayang
proyekto ang DILG. Actually, matagal na
[merong kaaya-ayang projects], hindi lang
naire-report. So, ito ay isang proyekto
ng ating central office para maibahagi at
katulong ang ating taong bayan.”

She also encouraged LGUs to maintain
the system so that through updating the
real-time status of the local projects in
SubayBAYAN, they can really show the
public that the government, especially the
DILG, has justifiable developments through
its implemented projects in the locality.

Also, this tool is a platform for transparent
governance and an arm to stop or discourage
corruption in the government. Through
this portal, the general public can send
feedback or comments wherein the result
will help improve the supervision of project
implementation of the concerned LGU.

The participants were given their default
usernames and passwords in order to get
an access and to be familiarized with the
interface of the portal during the hands-on
training.
