Urban areas are increasingly vulnerable to fire disasters due to high population
density, sprawling infrastructure, and often inadequate safety measures. This study aims to
analyze the capacity of the DKI Jakarta government in terms of human resource capabilities,
asset readiness, and budget planning capabilities. Furthermore, it measures the government’s
success as evidenced by the public response to the achievement of firefighter performance.
This study uses qualitative analysis with a content analysis approach. Data sources come from
annual performance report documents and the content of the DKI Jakarta Fire Department
website containing city disaster information. Performance report and website data are analyzed
and used as research data to support qualitative analysis. This research shows that command
decisions are essential in the organizational structure of the fire brigade. Both laboratory
services are carried out optimally as a concrete effort to map fire potential. The laboratory tests
the safety and suitability of firefighting equipment. Available budgetary support provides broad
operational powers for the fire service. The government’s strength in minimizing or
overcoming fire problems has received a positive response from the public. The operational
achievements of firefighting continue to be consistent and increase. Ultimately, this research
provides scientific insight into disaster mitigation and reducing the fire risk in cities.
