DILG BOOSTS DIGITAL GOVERNANCE WITH BIMS ROLLOUT IN BARANGAYS
The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) is accelerating grassroots digital transformation through the continued rollout of the Barangay Information Management System (BIMS), enabling faster, more efficient, and data-driven barangay governance across the country.
This move supports the directive of President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. for all government agencies and offices to fully embrace digitalization to deliver better, more responsive public service.
Developed under the DILG’s Local Government Unit Support System (LGUSS) in 2024, BIMS serves as a centralized platform for encoding, storing, and retrieving vital barangay data such as household profiles, individual records, deceased persons, barangay officials, as well as complaints and inquiries, making local operations more organized and responsive to community needs.
As of the latest DILG monitoring, 11,658 barangays or 27.7 percent of the country’s 42,011 barangays have been oriented on BIMS, while 7,083 barangays or 16.9 percent now have access to the system. The Department targets to increase these numbers significantly in 2025.
The DILG also underscores that barangays must strictly uphold data privacy and security protocols. All collected household and individual-level data must be protected in line with existing confidentiality standards.
The BIMS initiative is part of the Department’s broader efforts to strengthen local governance through digital innovation, empowering barangays with tools to improve service delivery, transparency, and operational efficiency.
