 The Civil Service Commission (CSC) Regional Office IV last October 12, 2020 held a virtual Regional Honor Awards Program where DOST-CALABARZON’s Senior Science Research Specialist Engr. Francisco R. Barquilla III  was awarded the prestigious Presidential Lingkod Bayan Award. 

 The CSC Honor Awards recognized notable public servants for their exceptional ideas and performance that have made an impact in the regional and national level. Three award categories were given out, CSC Pagasa Award, Dangal ng Bayan Award, and the Presidential Lingkod Bayan Award. The first two awards were for awardees whose impact was felt in the regional level while the last was for those whose impact was felt all throughout the nation. Out of the 35 nominations, 11 qualified for the awards and two of which were recognized for their national impact. 

 One of the Presidential Lingkod Bayan Awardees is Francisco Barquilla III or Kiko to most of his colleagues. Kiko has been with the DOST-CALABARZON for 22 years and counting. As the Management Information Systems (MIS) Unit Head of the organization, he has helped groom a competent team of programmers and system maintenance officers. Through Kiko’s leadership, the MIS team was able to develop the Smart Office Systems-a group of information systems which aim to boost efficiency through digitization. The goal, albeit simple, proved to be a daunting task as it involved processes that went even beyond the bounds of systems engineering and programming.
