Optimizing human resources to enhance the performance of the Directorate of General Criminal Acts of Bareskrim Polri is both urgent and strategic. The decline in the crime clearance rate, the increasing complexity of modern crime, and the growing demands for transparency and public accountability provide the empirical and theoretical foundation for this research. This study analyzes and formulates a human resource (HR) strengthening model to improve performance at the Directorate of General Criminal Acts (Bareskrim Polri). Using a qualitative field research approach, primary data was gathered through interviews, observation, and documentation, complemented by secondary data from literature and official documents. Analysis was conducted inductively, applying Human Capital Theory, Resource Based View, SWOT, and Economic Analysis of Law. Findings indicate that organizational performance relies on three pillars: work motivation, effectiveness of managerial roles, and personnel competence. Performance-based rewards, a supportive environment, and clear career paths enhance motivation. Effective managerial roles through strategic planning, organizing, direction, and data-based supervision strengthen coordination. Competency development via adaptive training and continuous evaluation improves investigation quality and minimizes errors. The resulting integrated strengthening model incorporates psychological, structural, and capability dimensions that interact systemically. Recommended implementation strategies include merit-based performance management reform, digitalization of HR management, strategic leadership strengthening, and developing a professional organizational culture. This comprehensive approach is expected to boost investigation performance, organizational effectiveness, and public trust in the police.
