This includes identifying data and information gaps, and developing plans to address them. • Sharing experiences: as a mapping for strategies and solutions that can be implemented. Conclusion: Work visits are an important component in implementing EPSS. The working visit enabled BPS Kuningan Regency to find out about the implementation of EPSS, verify and validate data, provide technical guidance, build coordination, and support related agencies in preparing for EPSS.
