Bina Nusantara IT Division

What Bina Nusantara IT Division does

Bina Nusantara IT Division is the centralized internal information technology function of Indonesia's BINA NUSANTARA Foundation, operating as a non-commercial cost center that delivers software, infrastructure, and enterprise data management services to all group entities — BINUS University, BINUS School (Serpong and Simprug), BINUS Center, BINUS Business School, BINUS Online Learning, and the BINUS Graduate Program. Headquartered on the Syahdan campus in Jakarta (Jl. KH Syahdan No. 9, 2nd floor of H Building), the Division reports directly to the Foundation, having been elevated from departmental to directorate status in August 2005 and renamed from IT Directorate to IT Division in October 2011 under current IT Director Mr. Ivan Sangkereng.

The Division's product portfolio spans web applications (Binusmaya LMS, KRS Online, Digital Library, HRIS, Information Kiosk, BINUS Online platform), mobile applications for Android and iOS, desktop applications (Academic Information System, POS), e-learning content packages (BCEP-TK, e-management, Professional Development), and a full infrastructure layer including a 50 m2 data center with raised floor, precision AC, UPS, and RFID-controlled access. The technology stack is built primarily on Microsoft Azure, .NET C#, React JS, SQL/NoSQL (Cosmos DB), and Azure DevOps. A 50+ service catalog covers hosting, email, backup/restore, antivirus, monitoring, and helpdesk operations.

Commercially, the Division does not sell products or services externally and is funded internally; revenue mechanics are budget allocation rather than sales. Its distinctive go-to-market is the Metamorph talent program, which funnels BINUS computer-science and information-systems students through Screening Test, Logic Test, IT Bootcamp Basic and Advance, and interview stages to become Associate Members (part-time, compensated via transport and meal allowances) and Junior Staff (full-time employees on monthly compensation). Annual cohort recruitment has run continuously from 2018 through 2027, with a 60-member 2027 cohort announced in February 2026. Co-marketing with Microsoft via the DevChallenge and Microsoft Developers Conference provides a parallel talent pipeline.
