Observational analysis finds IT services significantly enhance rural development in Aceh, highlighting infrastructure's critical role.
Digital transformation through Village Information Systems (Sistem Informasi Desa, or SID) has emerged as a pivotal strategic policy in recent decades. This study explores the influence of the SID in accelerating rural development by examining the contributions of three supporting factors: human resources, infrastructure, and IT services. The study was carried out in Kota Kualasimpang Subdistrict, Aceh Tamiang, Indonesia, utilising a quantitative research approach. A total of 99 respondents from five villages participated in the study, selected using an accidental sampling method. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analysed using descriptive statistics, validity and reliability testing, classical assumption testing, and multiple linear regression. The findings indicate that human resources, infrastructure, and IT services each have a statistically significant and positive effect on the acceleration of rural development. Among these, IT services exert the strongest influence, emphasising the importance of technological readiness in village administration. The results underscore the critical role of digital governance infrastructure in promoting development in rural areas, especially in regions with special autonomy like Aceh. This research offers empirical insights into the optimisation of SID implementation and its potential as a strategic tool for sustainable village advancement.
