<![CDATA[Administrative governance in higher education institutions depends heavily on the availability of accurate and well-organised data, particularly data on community service (Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat/PKM) activities carried out by lecturers. Prior to this community service program, PKM data belonging to lecturers at UIN Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi were still stored as raw spreadsheet files and scanned official decrees (SK), were not arranged sequentially, and contained duplicate and incomplete entries, so that searching, checking, and managing the records in an orderly manner became difficult. This community service program aimed to strengthen administrative governance through the systematic collection and validation of lecturers' PKM data. The activity was carried out at the Unit Rumah Jurnal of UIN Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi from 2 June to 12 July, targeting all lecturers of the institution. The method consisted of collecting scanned copies of PKM decrees, checking whether each record had already been registered on the Science and Technology Index (SINTA), and reporting unregistered data so that it could be uploaded and recorded correctly. Through this process, 1,413 PKM records spanning the period 2014–2026 were successfully compiled and verified. The activity helped reduce duplicate entries and produced cleaner, more orderly records that are properly registered on SINTA, while also easing the retrieval of records from the earliest to the most recent years. Based on the evaluation conducted internally, the activity was assessed as very helpful in supporting the retrieval and verification of lecturers' PKM records, thereby strengthening the institution's administrative governance and its continuity going forward.
