From Campus to the International Stage: Arro’uf Wins 3rd Place at ISS 2025

Ahmad Arro’uf Sulfuadi, a student in the Industrial Engineering Program at the Faculty of Industrial Technology (FTI), Universitas Islam Indonesia (UII), won 3rd place at the International Student Symposium 2025. This competition will be organized by the ASEAN School of Business Network (ASBN) in August 2025. Arro’uf competed in the essay category under the sub-theme “Green Economy and AI: Opportunities and Challenges.” Arro’uf presented an idea regarding the integration of AI in the management of renewable energy on an ASEAN regional scale. He adopted a benchmarking approach based on the ASEAN Power Grid initiative proposed by the ASEAN Center for Energy (ACE). He also outlined how the integration of AI can more efficiently bridge cross-border boundaries. This achievement demonstrates that UII Industrial Engineering students are capable of contributing to discussions on global issues at the international level.

From In-Depth Research to the International Finals

The competition consists of two stages: the preliminary round and the finals. Participants come from various countries at the international level. Since the competition is individual, Arro’uf handled the entire process on his own, proceeding at a slow and measured pace. Throughout the process, he positioned himself as a policy consultant. He presented real-world data on the potential for renewable energy in each of the pioneering ASEAN nations. He also designed an automated energy exchange system powered by AI authorized by the APC.

Arro’uf delved into the topic through a literature review on the application of AI in macro-scale energy management. He also watched various podcasts and videos on how AI is used in corporate-level energy management. From there, he began to consider whether this technology could be developed for use on a broader scale.

Arro’uf’s biggest challenge in this competition was presenting an innovative yet rational idea. He had to balance the potential for AI implementation in energy exchange with the reality of policy resistance and varying levels of openness in each country. Through his persistence, Arro’uf became a finalist among 10 international participants and secured 3rd place.

Essays as a Space for Sharing and Exchanging Ideas

In the final round, Arro’uf had the opportunity to witness interesting ideas from participants from other countries. A Vietnamese participant discussed Mekong River economic routes, while a Thai participant explored electric trains as sustainable transport. This experience broadened his perspective, showing him that this issue can be approached from diverse viewpoints in each country.

Arro’uf views this achievement as a highly valuable experience, especially since he had initially doubted his own idea in the early stages. He encourages other students not to hesitate to express their ideas through essays. Arro’uf sees the essay as a flexible medium because it allows anyone to explore ideas as broadly as possible, provided they are supported by real and rational data.

“So, in my opinion, an essay is a great platform to voice your ideas!” said Arro’uf.

Arro’uf also emphasized that ideas that seem too unrealistic to implement might actually be needed by those who already have the capacity to make them happen. Arro’uf proves that presenting big ideas can help Indonesian students make an impact on the international stage.

UII Industrial Engineering Practitioner Lecture: Kaizen and Layout Optimization Practical Industrial Engineering Approach

The Industrial Engineering Study Program, Faculty of Industrial Technology (FTI), Islamic University of Indonesia (UII) held a practitioner lecture for the Facility Design course. The event raised the topic of “Kaizen and Layout Optimization: Practical Industrial Engineering Approach” and took place offline on Saturday (12/20). This practitioner lecture was held in two sessions, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the FTI Auditorium on the 3rd floor. The lecture aimed to provide participants with an understanding of best practices in the application of Kaizen and layout optimization.

Rahmalia Yunita, as the Master of Ceremony, opened the event on time for both sessions. Rahmalia then continued the event by introducing the speaker for the practitioner lecture, Ori Rabowo. He is the Senior Operational Excellence Manager at Kimberly-Clark and has in-depth knowledge of Kaizen and Layout Optimization.

Local Improvements Affecting System Complexity

Ori opened the presentation session by emphasizing that improvements in the world of Industrial Engineering cannot be made partially or focused on a single process. In the context of Kaizen and layout optimization, he explained that every improvement decision must be viewed holistically. This is because industrial systems are interconnected between processes, capacity, layout, and demand. Local improvements that are not supported by end-to-end analysis have the potential to create new problems in the system.

Ori also cited a case study of reducing the number of machines as a form of operational efficiency. Locally, this decision was considered appropriate because it increased machine utilization and reduced costs. However, there was a side effect of pressure on human resources. This was because the data had not been standardized and the demand analysis had not been carried out thoroughly.

“This means that three machines will be discarded or sold. It turns out that the data mining is not yet standardized. This month, demand has increased, but the number of machines has been reduced and the number of employees has also been cut. This has led to an overwhelming workload. The result? We actually need additional overtime,” he explained.

This example shows that process optimization focused solely on local efficiency can pose risks in other areas, such as increased workloads and overtime. Ori emphasized that Kaizen and Layout Optimization are not just about making improvements, but ensuring that those improvements align with the overall process flow, supply chain, and system requirements.

Case Study Discussion

After the presentation, participants were divided into large groups to solve two case studies. The first case study discussed the optimization of the Global Print Solution Indonesia factory layout. Participants analyzed the Operation Process Chart (OPC) and redesigned the production layout using the Activity Relationship Chart (ARC). The second case study focused on the optimization of PT. Cetak Kreatif’s distribution. Participants calculated the occupancy rate, clustering stores, and transportation costs with a specific truck capacity. Each group member worked together to identify problems and find solutions according to their techniques.

After all groups finished, each group presented their results and solutions. These presentations included various perspectives because each group had a different approach. This allowed participants to learn from various optimization methods. This session enriched participants’ understanding of the real-world application of Kaizen and layout optimization in industry.

Thus, this practitioner lecture provides unique knowledge for UII Industrial Engineering students. Participants not only understand the theory but also integrate and apply it to industrial cases. The practitioner lecture event concluded with a group photo session with the speakers and all participants, with the hope that the knowledge gained can be applied in their academic or professional careers.

Academic Innovation

The event featured an exhibition and assessment of student innovations in the form of prototype layouts, which were evaluated directly by SIMAN Laboratory assistants. One of the most interesting works was that of the TD-9 group. This team redesigned the factory layout for the ginger extractor production process to make it more efficient and structured. The layout was changed because the initial layout was deemed suboptimal. This resulted in longer distances, increased time, and higher material handling costs.

This innovation was based on in-depth research and observation of the actual conditions at the factory. The TD-9 team mentioned that limited space, varying component sizes, and the number of work stations were the main challenges in designing an efficient layout.

“We want to improve the production flow of the ginger extractor machine to make it more organized and linear. The main focus is to reduce material transfer distances, reduce material handling costs, and optimize the proximity between work stations,” explained Helda Noor Prameswari, as the team representative.

The proposed layout is capable of creating a neater production flow and significantly reducing material handling costs. Layout evaluation process is also supported by software, making the results more measurable and objective. Helda’s team hopes that this proposed layout can serve as a reference for factories in organizing their production areas in a neater, more efficient, and safer manner. Layout can be implemented gradually according to the conditions of the factory without requiring major changes to existing facilities.

Words from the Organizing Committee

From the committee’s side, Dinda Meilia Rhepon, SIMAN Laboratory assistant and PIC for this activity, expressed her enthusiasm for the participants. Dinda also shared her impressions of preparing for the EXPO. She particularly enjoyed the process of finalizing the details of the expo. There are from selecting vendors, choosing backdrop and gate designs, to coordinating with fellow SIMAN lab assistants.

“Although the SIMAN Laboratory has frequently held the Gamtek EXPO every year, the Facility Design EXPO is something new for the SIMAN Laboratory assistants, so it actually presents its own challenges,” she said.

Dinda expressed her high hopes that this EXPO would have a long-term impact on the participants. She hopes that the participants can apply the knowledge gained during the practicum and EXPO, both during their work practicum and when they enter the workforce. She also hopes that the EXPO can run smoothly next year.

“Hopefully, next year’s EXPO will be even more lively and inspiring for the assistants and participants in the future!” she said.

Students apply Pancasila values through ethical digital communication in cyberspace. Industrial Engineering students understand system design and data governance. As a result, they verify information before sharing news.

Moreover, the Ulil Albab character encourages students to express opinions politely, rationally, and based on facts. They use this filtering process to reduce hate speech, hoaxes, and digital provocations. Consequently, they help prevent social conflicts. This commitment to Pancasila helps curb misinformation. In addition, it also supports social stability and national unity.

How Industrial Engineering Students at UII Promote Unity Through Diversity

Meanwhile, students apply Pancasila values through collaboration and teamwork. This is evident within the learning ecosystem and daily social interactions on campus. Domestic migrant students from various corners of the archipelago and international students blend together seamlessly. They gather without regard for differences in ethnicity, race, or cultural background.

Jihan, an Industrial Engineering student from Riau, shared her perspective on the social dynamics on campus.

“As a student from outside the region, I feel well received in the campus environment. Students do not let regional differences hinder friendship or collaboration, allowing me to adapt comfortably and grow alongside my peers,” she said.

Echoing this sentiment, Yaser, an international student from Yemen in the International Program (IP) of Industrial Engineering at UII, also experienced this inclusive atmosphere firsthand. Both lecturers and fellow students treat him equally without discrimination within the campus environment as a reflection of Pancasila’s tolerance.

“Although I sometimes still find social situations a bit challenging due to language barriers, overall, I really enjoy my learning experience here because everyone is very open and supportive,” Yaser expressed.

Through this mutually supportive campus atmosphere, the faculty has successfully created a comfortable learning environment for everyone. Differences in regional and national origins actually make friendships within FTI UII even more harmonious.
