Abstract

One of the government's strategies to facilitate villages in increasing village original income is the issuance of Regulation of the Minister of Villages, Disadvantaged Regions and Transmigration Number 4 of 2015 concerning the Establishment, Management, Management and Dissolution of Village-Owned Enterprises which states that village governments can establish Village-Owned Enterprises (Village-Owned Enterprises). BUMDes). BUMDes is a business entity whose capital is wholly or mostly owned by the village through direct participation from village assets which are separated in order to manage assets, services, and other businesses for the greatest welfare of the village community. Conceptually for the Village Government if BUMDes can be managed properly, Village Original Income (PADes) will also increase. With the increase in village income, village development can be carried out in various sectors. Research on the role of BUMDes on PADes uses BUMDes Formation, BUMDes Capital, BUMDes type of business, BUMDes Management, BUMDes Organization, BUMDes Development, and BUMDes Impact. The purpose of this study is to analyze how the role of BUMDes as a commercial institution increases village original income and to analyze the obstacles faced in managing village-owned enterprises in villages that already have BUMDes in Megamendung sub-district. This research was conducted at BUMDes in Megamendung District. The sample used in this research is 3 villages that have invested in BUMDes capital, which are still running effectively until now and already have BUMDes , namely Sukamanah Village, Cipayung Girang Village and Cipayung Datar Village which were selected by purposive sampling method . The analytical method used is descriptive qualitative. The questionnaire data was tested using IBM SPSS 25 For Windows software using validity and reliability tests. The results of the study reveal the fact that the role of BUMDes in village original income (PADes) is very large. However, only Sukamanah BUMDes are able to increase PADes in Megamendung District while Maju Bersama and Cipayung BUMDes have not been able to increase PADes because BUMDes have just pioneered and invested in capital. Constraints in the management of BUMDes are human resources, business units do not operate properly, organizational structure, multiple positions and there is no BUMDes accounting system
