Abstract

Data quality plays a critical role in ensuring the reliability and usefulness of information for decision making in higher education institutions. However, academic data within the SALAM application at UIN Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung has not previously undergone a systematic quality assessment, leading to uncertainty in several managerial and academic decisions. This study aims to evaluate the quality of academic data in the SALAM application using the Six Sigma method with the DMAIC (Define–Measure–Analyze–Improve–Control) framework. Five data quality dimensions completeness, consistency, conformity, uniqueness, and timeliness are employed to measure and analyze data quality performance. The measurement process begins with data definition and extraction, followed by quantitative analysis using sigma metrics. The results indicate that the overall quality of academic data is at a moderate level, with an average sigma score of approximately 3, primarily influenced by incomplete and inconsistent data. In contrast, the timeliness dimension demonstrates excellent performance, achieving a sigma metric of 6 due to the long-term availability of data over more than ten years. This study contributes by providing an empirical, data-driven evaluation of academic data quality and offers practical insights for implementing continuous monitoring and improvement strategies to enhance data reliability and support more effective decision making in higher education institutions.
