Singaraja- Ganesha University of Education (Undiksha) received the presence of the Inspectorate General Team of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology (Kemendikbudristek), Tuesday (5/10/2021). This presence is in the context of auditing the financial management of 2020 and semester I of 2021 Undiksha, especially those originating from Non-Tax State Revenue (PNBP).
Chancellor of Undiksha, Prof. Dr. I Nyoman Jampel, M, Pd., in his remarks said that Undiksha is currently one of the State Universities (PTN) which is given the authority to manage its finances in the Public Service Agency (BLU) pattern. This is something that has implications that require adequate understanding and skills to comply with BLU provisions.
So far, Undiksha has attempted to manage finances in accordance with established mechanisms and polarizations. Starting in 2016, in financial management they have also used E-planing and POK Online, so in general they have used the E-Budgeting application. With such a basis, the increase in institutional financial accountability and transparency is increasingly positive, and we hope that in the future it will continue to be perfected.
Delivered further, Undiksha has received an Unqualified Opinion (WTP) for 4 consecutive years from the Supreme Audit Agency of the Republic of Indonesia (BPK-RI), and the achievement of institutional Main Performance Indicators (IKU) has averaged above 167 percent since 2017. Apart from all that, it is hoped that the Itjen Team will still be able to provide understanding, insight, and input regarding financial governance. The results of the audit carried out for the next ten days will become input and reference for improving Undiksha’s performance.
Meanwhile, Auditor Inspector General of the Ministry of Education and Culture, Yusron Nurrachim explained this audit was to find out the management of BNBP and follow-up by Undiksha on records from the Indonesian BPK. “The Chancellor has explained that the BPK records have been completed. Actually, it’s just a matter of looking for evidence that it has already been passed,” he explained.
On this occasion, he emphasized the various things that need to be considered by tertiary institutions in managing PNBP, namely those related to planning, management, and accountability. “So later we will look at all aspects including now the model being carried out is centralization. We will see what the accountability will be like and not only that, we will also see physically whether the management is in accordance with the literature,” he explained.
This audit is to direct the tertiary institution to work as it should. The results will be returned to the leadership of Undiksha and related officials. “We’re not here to find fault. We as consulting. So if there are mistakes, there will be directives in the sense of coaching,” he added.
