The Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology (NEUST) welcomed representatives from Pampanga State University (PSU) for a benchmarking activity on the Anti-Red Tape Authority (ARTA) Report Card Survey (RCS) 3.0 on November 12, 2026, at the University President’s Conference Room, NEUST Gen. Tinio Campus, Cabanatuan City.

The activity aimed to facilitate knowledge exchange and showcase NEUST’s institutional practices, developed systems, and strategies in promoting efficient, transparent, and responsive public service in compliance with ARTA standards.

Ms. Myra S. Concepcion, Chief Administrative Officer (Administration) and Vice Chair of the NEUST Committee on Anti-Red Tape (CART), expressed her hope that the benchmarking engagement would provide an opportunity for both institutions to share knowledge and learn from one another.

“Sana po ay makapagbigay tayo ng iba’t ibang kaalaman sa bawat isa. Makakuha sana tayo ng mga bagong idea na makatutulong upang mas mapabuti natin ang ating serbisyo at mga gawain,” she said.

The lecture proper and presentation of NEUST practices and developed systems were facilitated by Mr. Adler Timbang, Information Systems Analyst of the Management Information Systems (MIS) Office.

Mr. Timbang discussed the University’s systems and initiatives that support efficient institutional operations and streamlined service delivery.

Meanwhile, Engr. Christopher Ladignon, Head of the Regulatory and Performance Compliance Unit (RPCU) and a member of CART, presented NEUST’s RCS results, providing insights into the University’s performance, accomplishments, and practices in meeting ARTA requirements.

Following the presentations, the visiting delegation participated in a campus tour, providing them with an opportunity to become familiar with NEUST’s facilities and gain further insights into its institutional operations and services.

An open forum was subsequently conducted, allowing participants to exchange insights, raise questions, and discuss relevant practices and experiences. 

Also present during the activity were Ms. Jenna Mudlong-Ilustre, Human Resource Management Officer III, and Ms. Ysabel Bondoc of the Human Resource Management Office (HRMO).

Through this engagement, NEUST underscored the importance of inter-institutional collaboration in advancing transparent, accountable, and citizen-centered services.
