Depok, September 10, 2026 — The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Universitas Indonesia (FMIPA UI), was recommended to maintain its ISO 9001:2015 certification following an external quality management system audit conducted on Monday (September 7, 2026). The audit was conducted by DQS, covering the Provision of Higher Education Administration Services at the FMIPA UI Central Administration in Depok.
Audit is part of the process recertification to ensure the continued implementation of the quality management system, the effectiveness of the various measures that have been implemented, and their compliance with the requirements of ISO 9001:2015.
FMIPA UI Dean Prof. Dr. Tito Latif Indra, S.Si., M.Si., opened the audit process through an opening meeting. He emphasized the importance of making the quality management system part of the work culture and ensuring its consistent implementation across all units.
“The implementation of the quality management system needs to be part of our daily work processes. What we are maintaining is not only compliance with the standards, but also how the system continues to provide opportunities to improve the quality of services at FMIPA UI,” said Prof. Tito.
Tito expressed his appreciation for the preparations made by the FMIPA UI ISO Team ahead of the external audit. He hoped that the entire audit process would run smoothly and deliver results in line with the faculty’s expectations.
“FMIPA UI’s ISO Team has made thorough preparations for this audit process. I hope the entire external audit can be carried out smoothly so that FMIPA UI can once again achieve results in line with the faculty’s expectations,” said Prof. Tito.
The audit involved the Management RepresentativeEducation, Human Resources, Procurement of Goods and Services, Archives, General Affairs, Facilities and Welfare, and Leadership Secretariat units.
During the audit process, DQS auditor Annas Sangadji reviewed the consistency of implementing the 2026 quality objectives (KOKIN), risk and opportunity management, document control, evaluation of external providers, and follow-up actions from previous evaluations.
“For the quality objectives, root cause analysis and mitigation are essential to ensuring that the targets can be achieved effectively,” said Annas.
Risk management was also a key focus of the audit. Each unit at FMIPA UI has a risk register as an instrument for identifying and managing various risks associated with work processes.
“Risks and opportunities need to be continuously updated in line with the dynamics of the quality objectives, including integrating the impacts of climate change into risk management in each unit,” he said.
Climate change issues were also discussed in the context of risk management and service sustainability. At FMIPA UI, their implementation includes waste, water, and energy management through various initiatives under UI GreenMetric.
During the audit, this aspect was also linked to the continuity of educational activities and faculty services. The impacts of extreme weather, disasters, and changes in environmental conditions may form part of the risk mapping that needs to be anticipated in the implementation of academic activities.
In addition, the audit reviewed the documentation of the quality management system. FMIPA UI continues to improve its documentation processes by focusing on the substance of the documents and the availability of evidence of process implementation.
In 2026, FMIPA UI also developed new Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), with 12 new SOPs listed in the FMIPA UI ISO Management Review Meeting (RTM) report.
The audit also covered the procurement of goods and services and the evaluation of external providers. The evaluation of providers in 2026 had been carried out as part of the implementation of quality management system requirements for processes supporting educational services.
Through the closing meeting, the auditor presented several Opportunity for Improvement (OFI) aimed at the continuous development of FMIPA UI’s quality management system. The recommendations included strengthening risk and opportunity management, updating quality objectives, and integrating climate change issues into risk management at the unit level.
Based on the audit results, the DQS auditor recommended the maintenance of FMIPA UI’s ISO 9001:2015 certification. The detailed audit results will be provided by DQS within the same week.
The recommendation is part of FMIPA UI’s ongoing efforts to maintain consistent quality standards, improve the effectiveness of work processes, and ensure that educational administrative services are delivered systematically and focused on continuous improvement.
