“We are eager to explore the processes behind your CSMS and adopt best practices that align with our goals,” said Mr. Melgie A. Alas, Director of the Office of Monitoring and Evaluation of Mindanao State University – Iligan Institute of Technology (MSU-IIT), during a benchmarking visit to Catanduanes State University (CatSU) on December 4, 2024.

The visit, held at the CatSU Accreditation Room, aimed to enhance MSU-IIT’s Client Satisfaction Management System (CSMS) by learning from CatSU’s Quality Assurance (QA) and Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Units.

Dr. Edna A. Pante, CatSU’s Quality Assurance Officer, welcomed the MSU-IIT delegation and asserted the value of sharing strategies and practices.

“Hosting this benchmarking visit is a privilege. We hope this exchange serves as a meaningful platform for sharing knowledge and inspiring strategies adaptable to your context,” Dr. Pante said.

Director Alas, accompanied by a team of experts including PDO III Mark June L. Aporador, Data Controller III Virgilio S. Luzana, Center for ICT Director Dante D. Dinawanao, and IT Officer II Richard M. Micubo, pointed out the importance of refining MSU-IIT’s CSMS.

CatSU’s CSMS, though newly developed, has already achieved notable results. Information Technology Officer Jay-R R. Redita presented the system’s functionalities, spotlighting its feedback-driven approach to improvements. Meanwhile, QA Unit AO V Josephine D. Rojas shared best practices such as multi-channel feedback collection, prompt responses, employee engagement, and regular reporting.

A live walkthrough of the CSMS interface capped the afternoon session, where both institutions exchanged ideas and discussed potential enhancements.

“This benchmarking has provided valuable insights and techniques we aim to incorporate. We look forward to continued collaboration with CatSU,” Alas noted.

The MSU-IIT team is set to meet Officer-in-Charge Atty. Septon A. de la Cruz on December 5 for a courtesy call at the Conference Room.
