Good morning everyone

Pertama dan paling utama marilah kita panjatkan puji syukur ke hadirat Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta’ala atas limpahan karunia dan rahmatNya, sehingga hari ini kita dapat berkumpul bersama dalam acara Diskusi Panel. Acara ini diselenggarakan dalam rangka memperingati Hari Standar Dunia 2012 dan Dies Natalis Universitas Trisakti ke-47. Topik Diskusi Panel kali ini adalah ”Less Waste, Better Results. Increasing Efficiency: Building Awareness of Standardization”.

Dewasa ini Increasing efficiency telah menjadi perhatian utama di berbagai sektor ( industri, bisnis ) baik di level nasional, regional maupun internasional. ISO (2012) telah mendefinisikan efisiensi sebagai kemampuan untuk mencapai tujuan dengan menerapkan proses untuk mengembangkan produk atau jasa berkualitas dengan cara menimalkan/menekan limbah, biaya, atau usaha yang tidak perlu. Efisiensi dapat membantu perusahaan/organisasi dalam memaksimalkan keuntungan mereka.

Diskusi panel hari ini bertujuan untuk mencari berbagai alternatif solusi, menemukan berbagai cara terbaik dalam meningkatkan kesadaran akan pentingnya menggunakan dan menerapkan standar melalui pendidikan dan budaya.

Pada kesempatan ini, kami atas nama panitia pengarah menghaturkan terimakasih kepada: (1) Bapak Rektor atas komitmen dan dukungan yang kuat atas terselenggaranya acara ini. (2) Pihak sponsor : PT Semen Gresik, PT Pertamina Pelumas, PT Gapura Angkasa. (3) Dukungan penuh (supported by) MASTAN, ISO,BSN, ISW. (4) Panitia Penyelenggara, adik-adik mahasiswa dari

berbagai Fakultas di Lingkup Universitas Trisakti, acara ini dipersembahkan dari, oleh dan untuk para mahasiswa.

Kami juga tak lupa menyampaikan permohonan maaf jika sekiranya ada hal-hal yang kurang berkenan baik disengaja maupun tidak disengaja selama acara ini berlangsung. Tapi percayalah inilah kemampuan terbaik kami yang dapat kami berikan kepada hadirin sekalian.
