<![CDATA[Background: Community Service Programs (KPPM) in higher education generate valuable community-based experiences and practical knowledge, but their outputs often remain limited to administrative reports rather than scientific publications. Publication mentoring can strengthen the academic value and dissemination of these activities.Aims: This program aimed to implement the Output-Oriented Publication Mentoring Model (OPPM) to transform community service activities into scientific articles and achieve targeted publication outputs.Methods: The program was implemented by the Institute for Research and Community Service (LPPM) of STIE WIKARA during the July 2026 KPPM program in 12 villages in Bojong District, Purwakarta Regency, Indonesia. Twenty-four undergraduate students were organized into 12 groups. OPPM consisted of five stages: orientation, topic mapping, journal alignment, guided writing, and digital progress monitoring. Each group developed one scientific article based on its community service activities and submitted it to an appropriate SINTA-indexed journal.Results: The program produced 12 scientific articles from 12 villages. All 12 articles were completed and submitted to SINTA 3 and SINTA 4 journals, achieving the targeted output of one submitted article per village. The web-based monitoring system supported continuous supervision, manuscript tracking, and timely feedback.Conclusion: OPPM provided a structured approach for integrating scientific article development and journal submission into community service programs. The completion and submission of 12 manuscripts demonstrate the model’s practical potential to transform field-based community service activities into measurable scholarly outputs at the manuscript-submission stage. These outcomes represent successful manuscript submission and should not be interpreted as journal acceptance or publication.]]>
