Central Jakarta Mayor Urges Civil Servants to Boost Competence via Sipetkom App

JAKARTA (ANTARA) — Central Jakarta Mayor Arifin has urged civil servants (ASN) to continuously improve their competence whilst making full use of the Competency Mapping Information System (Sipetkom) application as the foundation for implementing talent management.

“This policy is part of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government’s efforts to build a civil service management system that is professional, objective, transparent and competency-based,” Arifin said at the opening of a socialisation event on improving employees’ understanding of staffing regulations at the Central Jakarta Mayor’s Office on Monday.

Arifin said the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government has provided the Sipetkom application as a means of recording civil servants’ competency data.

Through the application, employees are asked to fill in their competency data along with supporting documents in full.

“I hope employees can input their competency data and supporting documents completely through the Sipetkom application,” he said.

According to him, the data uploaded to Sipetkom will serve as the basis for competency mapping, career development, transfers, promotions and human resource development within the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government.

He emphasised that the success of talent management implementation depends on the quality of staffing data held by the regional government.

In addition to completing competency data, Arifin also asked all civil servants to update their family data on their respective accounts so that staffing administration remains orderly and compliant with regulations.

“Therefore, I ask that the data be filled in completely, accurately and in an up-to-date manner, supported by valid documents,” he said.

At the same event, Head of the Central Jakarta Personnel Agency Heri Dianto said the socialisation was attended by around 130 participants from various regional apparatus organisations (OPD).

According to Heri, the activity aims to improve the understanding of employees and personnel administrators regarding the implementation of talent management through the Sipetkom application.

It is understood that the implementation of talent management within the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government refers to DKI Jakarta Governor’s Decision Number 771 of 2025 as part of strengthening the competency-based civil service management system.

“It encourages the management of staffing data that is accurate, complete and up to date,” Heri said.
