INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY GOVERNANCE MODEL IN UNIVERSITY GOVERNANCE FOR IMPROVING LECTURER PERFORMANCE IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF TRIDARMA

Abstract

This study aims to develop an Information Technology (IT) governance model based on University Governance to enhance lecturers’ performance in implementing the Three Pillars of Higher Education (Tridharma) at STEBI Tanggamus. The research is motivated by several issues, including limited IT infrastructure, the absence of standard operating procedures, and the fragmented development of information systems. The study employs the Enterprise Architecture Planning (EAP) method involving analysis of the existing conditions, mapping of data, application, and technology architectures, and designing an implementation roadmap. The findings indicate that EAP effectively identifies Tridharma information requirements, formulates the integration of core applications (academic information system, e-learning, performance reporting), and develops IT management standards that were previously unavailable. Interviews with institutional leaders further revealed the urgent need for system integration to improve accountability in lecturers’ reporting processes. The study concludes that an EAP-based IT governance model serves as a strategic solution to strengthen university governance and improve lecturers’ performance. The novelty of this research lies in applying EAP within the context of small-to-medium Islamic higher education institutions and integrating it directly with Tridharma performance indicators.
