The prominent economic sectors in Yogyakarta are Processing Industry, Trading, Hotel and Restaurant.  Yogyakarta City is the capital city of DIY Province that has high commitment in achieving good and clean Governance. The Investment and Licensing Agency of Yogyakarta City was established to integrate licensing services and to make a faster, easier and more transparent licensing process but at the same time keeping the quality of the services provided. There is a Public Satisfaction Survey to service users, according to Regulation of the Minister of State Apparatus Empowerment and Bureaucracy Reformation Number 16 Year 2014 regarding Public Service Holder.  Investors frequently encounter problems or constraints related to the requirements of permit processing either administrative or technical, especially for large scale building, a lot of provisions in licensing regulations that must be fulfilled by the permit applicants, therefore it seems a difficult and long process, and also no assurance requirements and service time. The problems frequently encountered by the applicants are: - Difficulty in describing Provisions of Advice Planning when it is implemented into administrative requirements and technical design of permit, so it requires a more detail explanation. - Unclear information regarding administrative and technical requirements, while the allocation time in the counter services for permit consultation is very limited, so the information provided is sometimes incomplete and less detail regarding administrative and technical requirements of urban management. - The applicant must return several times to the service counter due to incomplete documents. - A lot of permit applications which are registered are rejected due to incomplete and incorrect documents.

B. Strategic Approach

 2. What was the solution?
To resolve those problems, the Investment and Licensing Agency of Yogyakarta City has an initiative to open a comprehensive consultation media involving many parties that are formed into a Licensing Service Clinic Team or hereinafter referred as KLIPPER.  KLIPPER is a consultation service toward an activity/business plan related to administrative and technical requirements of permit application, and it provides complete and comprehensive information before registration, so that it prevents lack of documents presented at the time of registration and permit processing, as well as at the time of verification/document verification, field verification.

 3. How did the initiative solve the problem and improve people’s lives?
