Northern Bukidnon State College (NBSC) was visited by officials and technical personnel from the Department of Budget and Management, Regional Office X (DBM RO X), to validate and discuss its physical and financial performance during the first semester on October 13, 2026.

The engagement brought together the DBM team, College officials, and the Finance Team to assess the institution’s performance in implementing its programs, activities, and projects, as well as in utilizing government funds.

During the discussion, the DBM team noted improvements in NBSC’s physical and financial performance compared with the same period in 2025, while identifying areas requiring further attention and providing recommendations to strengthen budget utilization and program implementation.

The DBM officials likewise provided valuable recommendations and suggestions to further improve the College’s budget utilization, implementation efficiency, and overall performance in the succeeding fiscal year.

As part of the visit, the DBM team also conducted an ocular inspection of three ongoing infrastructure projects to validate the College’s reported physical accomplishments and project implementation status.

NBSC President Dr. Christie Jean Villanueva-Ganiera expressed appreciation to DBM RO X for its continued technical guidance, constructive recommendations, and support in strengthening the College’s performance and accountability.

The visit underscored the importance of close coordination between DBM and state colleges in ensuring that public funds are utilized efficiently and translated into impactful programs, improved facilities, and quality services for students and other stakeholders.

NBSC remains committed to sustaining its gains, addressing areas for improvement, and achieving even higher levels of physical and financial performance in the coming year.
