Factors Affecting the Effectiveness of Implementing the Electronic Budgeting System (COJ e-Budgeting) in the Courts of Justice: A Case Study of the Administrative Office of the Court of Justice, Region 6 and the Administrative Offices of the Courts under

Abstract

Abstract

        This mixed-methods research aimed to (1) examine the effectiveness level of the electronic budgeting system (COJ e-Budgeting) implementation in the Administrative Office of the Courts of Justice Region 6 and its subordinate offices, (2) analyze the factors affecting implementation effectiveness, and (3) propose recommendations for system improvement. Quantitative data were collected from 120 personnel using a five-point Likert scale questionnaire, while qualitative data were gathered through in-depth interviews with eight key informants. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis.

        The findings revealed that overall implementation effectiveness was at a high level   
( = 4.29), with data accuracy scoring the highest. The four factors collectively explained 74.8% of the variance (R² = .748, F = 85.347, p < .001). Organizational factors exerted the strongest positive influence (β = .413), followed by process factors (β = .260) and personnel factors (β = .194), all statistically significant at the .05 level. Technology factors did not demonstrate a statistically significant influence under the mandated-use context. Key recommendations include accelerating seamless data integration and establishing a proactive digital mentorship program for new personnel.
