Consistent in Improving Quality Management, FMIPA UI Again Achieves ISO 9001:2015 Certification

The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, University of Indonesia (FMIPA UI) has again achieved the ISO (International Organization for Standardization) ISO 9001: 2015 quality management system certification. This year's ISO certification was issued by DQS, an ISO 9001: 2015 certification body based in Germany.

Dean of FMIPA UI Dede Djuhana Ph.D. said that the achievement of ISO 9001: 2015 certification is a manifestation of FMIPA UI's consistency in maintaining and improving quality management in business processes that apply in the FMIPA UI Administration Center environment. In addition to increasing productivity, this, said the Dean, is to improve the positive image and increase the trust of stakeholders in FMIPA UI.

"FMIPA UI is committed to continuing to implement, optimize quality management, and provide quality services according to international standards to stakeholders, hopefully with the ISO certification that we have, it can also increase the trust of our stakeholders in FMIPA UI," said the Dean to the FMIPA UI Public Relations team.

The Dean appreciated and thanked his staff and all parties who worked hard to obtain this certification. However, he warned his staff not to be complacent and to remain consistent in implementing the quality management system that had been built together well.

"Don't be complacent, we will continue to maintain our commitment and consistency to maintain the system that we have created well so that it can be run sustainably," he said.

"We also need to carry out regular monitoring," the Dean emphasized.

Since 2015, FMIPA UI has committed to obtain ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System certification. And for the first time, FMIPA UI has obtained the certification in December 2016.

Just like the previous certification, the ISO 9001:2015 certification this year was achieved by FMIPA UI after going through a series of processes. The beginning of the ISO 9001:2015 activities for FMIPA UI was marked by training awareness sistem manajemen mutu pada tanggal 6 Juli 2022 untuk mengenalkan dan menyatukan pemahaman tim tentang ISO 9001:2015.

Next, the preparation of the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) document for the work process or procedure that will be carried out, and adjustments to several previous SOPs by a special team.

The activity was continued by conducting an internal quality audit of the auditee who was the implementer of the procedure in each unit on August 25 and 26, 2022. This was done to conduct an evaluation and check the extent to which the units implemented the ISO 9001:2015 quality management system. The internal quality auditors had previously undergone special training.

After all POBs have been approved by the Dean, the next stage is an external audit by Mr. Annas Sangadji as an auditor from PT. DQS Certification Indonesia in meeting room A FMIPA UI, UI Campus, Depok, on September 1, 2022 for stage 1 and September 8, 2022 for stage 2.

Based on the external audit, FMIPA UI was recommended to re-obtain the ISO 9001: 2015 certificate, which means that FMIPA UI has met international requirements in terms of quality assurance management.
