Abstract

The new paradigm of higher education requires higher education institutions (HEIs) to be managed by utilizing information technology (IT). This has been recognized by the HEIs, but it did not go smoothly. Frequently occur in development process, the re-creation of the necessary facilities (low sustainability). This article discusses the cause identification of low IT sustainability in HEIs and proposes solution that is Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) concept. The identification process is done by means of literatures review and observation followed by process of analysis utilizing root cause analysis and worst case analysis, with fishbone diagrams and checklist as instruments. It concluded that the root cause of low IT sustainability is the approach or development method that cannot adapt to changes and does not consider collaborations. The exploiting of SOA concept is suitable to solve the problem based on the worst case analysis. Thus, IT-based systems in HEIs will be sustain.
