Abstract
Changes in politics, administration, economy, and society cause less cash flow in the system and unemployment which results in social and economic inequality. This problem inevitably gives rise to various forms of crime. This research aims to 1) create guidelines for developing the operational effectiveness of the crime prevention and suppression of the Provincial Police Region 7 by using the Delphi technique from a sample of 15 experts and 2) examine the suitability and feasibility of the approach to such development by focus group discussion from a sample group of 10 officers. The data collected from interviews, a questionnaire, and a group discussion between November 2019 and September 2022, were analyzed using percentage statistics, median and interquartile range. Results indicated that developing the operational effectiveness of the crime prevention and suppression of the Provincial Police Region 7 must follow the suggested guidelines which consist of 6 aspects: self-practice (8 components), work organization (9 components), participation (5 components), crime suppression (5 components), environment (3 components), and data collection and analysis (8 components).The guidelines have a median of 4.50 or above and an interquartile range of lower than 1.50 according to the requirements. After examining the suitability and feasibility in the application of the guidelines suggested, it was found that they were suitable and feasible in all 6 aspects with their 38 subcomponents. The results of the study can be used as a guideline for developing the effectiveness of crime prevention and suppression operations for police officers to analyze the database system, conduct comparative studies for future work development.
