The selection of partners at the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) of Central Tapanuli is a very important process because it determines the quality of supporting staff in census and survey activities. One of the core stages in the selection process is the interview, which functions to directly evaluate the abilities and character of prospective partners. The assessment in the interview covers several main aspects, namely analytical skills, communication, appearance, and politeness. This study aims to design a decision support system based on the SMART (Simple Multi Attribute Rating Technique) method that can help process interview results systematically and objectively. Each criterion in the interview is given a weight based on the level of importance, then the value of each candidate is processed through mathematical calculations that produce a final score. This score is used to determine the candidate's ranking and provide recommendations to the selection committee. The system is developed in the form of a web-based application with a user-friendly interface, and supports data input, value processing, and automatic presentation of results. The implementation results show that the SMART method is able to improve assessment accuracy, reduce subjectivity, and accelerate the decision-making process in partner selection. With this system, the interview process is not only a fairer and more transparent means of assessment, but also supports work efficiency and consistency of selection results in the BPS environment.
