Edgardo Dingal Caseñas

Senior Administrative Assistant I • System Designer • Building Designer • LGU Workflow Specialist

I design and deploy practical digital systems that help LGUs work faster, serve citizens better, and strengthen transparency. From paperless legislative sessions to document-wide tracking and permit workflows, I deliver solutions that are secure, offline-capable, and built for real government operations.

About Me

I’m a results-driven public service professional combining administration, systems design, and implementation support. In the Office of the Secretary to the Sangguniang Panlungsod, I work on records, research, and decision-ready data outputs that help leaders act faster and smarter.

My digital transformation work includes the Paperless Session Program and legislative archive initiatives, with hands-on deployment, user onboarding, and technical support. I also continue to serve with purpose as a former prayer leader for the 13th and 14th City Councils.

Outside LGU systems, I bring long-term building design experience and deliver detailed, practical outputs for architecture and structural needs.

Legacy & Milestones

Official Emblem and Seal of the Sangguniang Panlungsod

This logo is now recognized as the official emblem and seal of the Sangguniang Panlungsod. I led the concept, design direction, and final execution—turning a vision into an official identity now used with pride and institutional credibility. During the creative process, my friend Roland F. Morales shared valuable idea inputs that helped refine the final design.

National Computer Center (NCC) Achievement • 2000

Completed intensive NCC training in Zamboanga City with focus areas including programming, file access methods, internet/e-commerce, and networking administration.

In the final examination, only 3 out of 53 participants from around the Philippines passed, and I was one of the passers representing Pagadian City.

A milestone that sharpened my technical foundation for long-term LGU digital transformation work.
