INTRODUCTION
Banks
grow and develop because of Trust. The role of banks is so important in
development, namely as a source of capital and financial intermediaries. banks
as financial institutions function as financial intermediaries (Sinungan, 2018). the implementation of these bank functions will
accelerate the process of economic activity in a country which has an impact on
accelerating its development. Islamic banks as part of the national banking
sector also play an active role in overcoming fundamental economic problems,
especially in order to accelerate the revival of the national economy. Efforts
that need to be made to strengthen the national banking infrastructure can be
carried out by continuing to encourage the development of Islamic banks and the
existence of BPRs (People's Credit Banks). these development efforts are in
accordance with the objectives and background of the development of the sharia
banking system (Indonesia, 2021).
Banking
is a service company that always makes gradual improvements to business processes.
Improvements cannot be done all at once because banking service companies
consist of tens and hundreds of sub-processes, so it is necessary to determine
which business process areas will be prioritized. Determination of priority
areas of business processes to be improved can be seen through company
performance information that describes the company's performance in a certain
period (Frias‐Aceituno et
al., 2014).
Banking
services, performance information related to the soundness level of the bank
based on the decision of the directors of Bank Indonesia no. 30/11/kep/dir
dated 30 april 1997 concerning procedures for assessing the soundness level of
commercial banks. In the decree it was stated that the assessment of the
soundness level of a bank is based on CAMEL aspects, namely capital (capital),
assets (productive asset quality), management (management), earnings
(profitability), and liquidity (liquidity) (Siska, 2023).
Performance
information on the CAMEL aspect of the assessment is more focused on financial
performance information. Assessment of performance information to determine the
success of achieving financial and non-financial performance targets in bank
companies can use the balanced scorecard as a performance appraisal method (Lin et al., 2014).
Bank
Aceh Syariah was born from the conversion on May 25 2015, Bank Aceh changed its
business activities from the conventional system to the entire sharia system.
the conversion process begins with the Bank Aceh conversion team supervised by
the Financial Services Authority. After going through various stages and
licensing processes required by the OJK, Bank Aceh finally obtained a
conversion operational permit from the OJK Board of Commissioners to change
business activities from the conventional system to the sharia system as a
whole. The conversion operational permit was determined based on OJK Board of
Commissioners Decree No. KEP- 44/D.03/2016 dated 1 September 2016 regarding the
Granting of Permits for Changing Conventional Commercial Bank Business
Activities to Become Sharia Commercial Banks (Khairullah et al., 2020).
the
conversion of Bank Aceh into a Sharia Bank can have a positive impact on all
aspects of the community's economic and social life. By becoming a Sharia Bank,
Bank Aceh can become one of the epicenters of economic growth and more optimal
regional development (Djalante et al., 2020). Bank Aceh is expected to have the ability to develop
and implement appropriate management strategies in order to achieve company
performance targets, one of which is by conducting performance appraisals with
a balanced scorecard to achieve better business processes
several
studies that implement performance appraisal using the balanced scorecard.
balanced scorecard. Christin Jurisch (2014) said that performance information has a positive effect
on the business processes being carried out. Research by Erika and Endang (2016) states that there is a significant and strong
relationship between balanced scorecard performance appraisal and business
process improvement. Furthermore, research by Li (2021) states that human resource management strategies and
company performance information simultaneously have a positive effect on
improving business processes.
LITERATURE REVIEW
Performance Information with Balanced
Scorecard Approach
The Nolan Norton Institute, research arm of the public accounting firm
KPMG, sponsored a study on measuring future organizational performance. This
study was driven by the awareness that the financial performance measures used
by all companies to measure executive performance at that time were considered
no longer sufficient. Good financial performance sacrifices or is created at
the expense of the company's long-term interests, therefore performance is not
only measured from the financial side but also from the non-financial side (Queen, 2015).
According to Ancella Hermawan (2021) Balanced scorecard consist ofbalanced
(balanced) and (2) scorecard (score card). Cardscore Is a card used to record a
person's performance score. This scorecard can also be used to plan the score
to be achieved or realized by personnel in the future. The purpose of this is
to balance external measurements for shareholders and customers with internal
measurements of internal business processes, innovation and learning and growth
processes, as well as a balance between measurement of results. from past
efforts with measurements that drive future performance and a balance between
objectivity and subjectivity.
Kaplan & Norton (1996) said further that the Balanced Scorecard can be
seen from various perspectives, namely finance, customers, internal business
processes, growth and learning. Kozlowski (2012) said that the objectives of the financial
perspective can be very different at each stage of the business life cycle.
Business strategy theory suggests several different strategies that a business
unit can follow, ranging from aggressive market share growth to consolidation,
exit and liquidation by identifying only three stages namely Growth, Sustain
and Harvest.
Aksoy (2013) said that measurement from a customer
perspective is common in all types of organizations. measurement includes
market share, customer retention, customer acquisition, customer satisfaction
and customer profitability. Furthermore, from the perspective of internal
business processes according to Carayannis (2015) consists of three processes, namely
innovation, operations and post sale service. Meanwhile, the learning and
growth perspective as stated by L'Écuyer (2019) consists of three main measurement
categories namely employee capabilities, information systems capabilities, as
well as motivation, empowerment, and alignment.
Business Process
Improvement
The Concept and Importance of Business
Processes
Andersen (1999) says that a business process is a series of
related transaction logic that transforms inputs into results or outputs. The
same thing was expressed by Harrington (1991) who revealed that there is no product or
service without a process, there is no process without a product or service.
Any activity or group of activities that uses inputs, adds value to them, and
provides outputs to internal or external customers. The process of using
organizational resources to produce definite results. Harrington (1991) further said that Business Process
improvement is a systematic methodology developed to help organizations make
significant progress in the way their business processes work.
Business process improvement can be done easily if the improvement is
prepared in a detailed plan of the steps to be carried out in the business
process improvement cycle within a company. This effort is commonly referred to
as the preparation of a business process improvement model (Bredrup,
1995). A activities in carrying out process
improvements and including planning, review, and actions to be taken. As an
illustration of a cycle, it is difficult for us to determine where to start
improving business processes (Anderson
& Young, 1999).
Implementation of business process improvement begins with organizing
improvements (organizing for improvement) so that successful development of
leadership, understanding, and commitment can be achieved. The first step taken
to start organizing repairs is to establish a repair executive team that
represents all parts of the company. Harvey et al (1997) said that there are several requirements
that must be met by members of the business process improvement team in order
to be successful, namely knowledge of the process, representation of the
affected groups, communication skills, problem solving skills, interpersonal
skill, management skills, and the ability to be objective. Based on this
statement, better business process improvements in order to realize
effectiveness, efficiency and adaptability company can be done by increasing
understanding of business processes.
The next stage in improving business processes after all teams know and
understand the business processes contained within the company is to modernize
business processes (streamlining). Modernizing business processes is intended to
modernize/improve existing business processes to make them more efficient,
effective andadaptable in order to face competitors. Competition in an
environment full of competition requires companies to provide services at the
most economical cost level, always innovate and be responsive to consumer
demands Harrington (1991). the stages of business process improvement
that are carried out after modernizing existing business processes are carrying
out measurement and control (measurement and control) of business processes.
Its relation to measurement and control, Harrington (1991).
The last stage carried out in improving business processes is carrying out
continuous improvement (continuous improvement). Continuous improvement demands
continuously setting higher goals for the company. These company goals, of
course, demand better business processes so that continuous and continuous
improvement is an effort that will always be carried out in order to increase
the company's responsiveness to consumer demands Harrington (1991).
RESEARCH METHOD
Sekaran (2013) said that the object of this research
consisted of two variables, company performance information (X) and the
dependent variable in this study was business process improvement (Y). The
subjects in this study were companies, namely 27 PT Bank Aceh Branch Offices in
2022. This research was conducted to obtain data that provides an overview of
company performance information and explains its impact on business process
improvement.
The research design uses a case study method with explanatory case studies
as the type of research. The framework for this research is to understand the
various elements that form the basis of a scientific research contained in the
operationalization of research variables. The operationalization of the
research variables is described as follows:

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
In connection with the use of questionnaires in collecting research
data, the seriousness of respondents in answering questions is highly expected.
Therefore, in order for the measuring instrument to be valid and reliable so
that it can describe the actual condition of the research object, two kinds of
tests need to be carried out, namely: a test of validity and a test of
reliability. Data that is valid and reliable is processed using simple
regression statistics.
Hypothesis testing:

companies partially has no effect on improving business processes.

The results of the data processing results can be illustrated by
the research results that the impact of performance information using the
balanced scorecard approach to companies at 27 PT Bank Aceh Branch Offices in
2022 is as follows:

Based on the table above, it can be said that the impact
of company performance information can be said that the impact of company
performance information is in the large category with a percentage of 69.57%.
The magnitude of the impact of performance information on business process
improvement 0.5996 Based on the above calculation results, the magnitude of the
impact of the company performance information variable (X) on business process
improvement variable (Y) is 0.5996 or 59.96 percent. Therefore, the magnitude
of the direct impact of the company performance information variable (X) on the
business process improvement variable (Y) is in the large category. Based on
the above results, the interpretation of the first hypothesis where Ho1
not equal to zero (Pyx2 ≠ 0) and not smaller than zero,
means the hypothesis Ho1 rejected and means the hypothesis Ha1 accepted
(proven hypothesis). Acceptance of the hypothesis Ha1 means that the
independent variable of company performance information (X) partially has an
impact on improving business processes (Y) with a strong level of influence.
The value of the impact of X on the Y variable of 69.57
percent is the contribution of the total impact of the company performance
information variable (X) on the business process improvement variable (Y). The
total impact of company performance information on business process improvement
has a strong impact. Based on the results of data analysis and testing of
research hypotheses, it shows that business process improvement at 27 PT Bank
Aceh Branch Offices in 2022 is influenced by company performance information
with a strong level of influence according to the interpretation of Guilford (2020).
The positive impact value in this study is in accordance with research results
Rohmat (2020) and Charles (2012), Rifkhi and Rahman (2021) in that there is a significant and
strong relationship between performance appraisal balanced scorecard by
improving business processes. Charles (2012) said that the HR management strategy
and company performance information simultaneously and partially have a
positive and significant effect on business process improvement.
The influence value is 69.57%. is basically
a direct influence of company performance information on improving business
processes at 27 PT Bank Aceh Branch Offices in 2022.
The magnitude of the influence of company
performance information on business process improvement when compared to the
variables not examined, illustrates that business process improvements at 27 PT
Bank Aceh Branch Offices have been carried out based on company performance
information using the balanced scorecard. Company performance
information with approach balanced scorecard has four perspectives,
namely: finance, customer, internal business process, and learning & growth.
Furthermore, the
implementation of business process improvements that contain continuous
improvement (continuous improvement) is positively influenced by company
performance information and strategy implementation by operations management
according to what was stated by Rifkhi and Rahman (2021).
