Starting August 2026, ATR/BPN to Implement Scheduled Measurement System with a Maximum of 12 Days

The Indonesian Ministry of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning (ATR/BPN) is set to introduce a new scheduled land measurement system across all its Land Offices (Kantah) beginning in August 2026. This initiative aims to enhance public service by providing guaranteed schedules and greater transparency.

“

With the scheduled measurement system, the waiting period with scheduling will be a maximum of seven days, then the work duration will be a maximum of five days. So everything will be measurable.

Minister of ATR/Head of BPN, Nusron Wahid, emphasized that public service essentials include certainty, transparency, measurability, and freedom from illegal levies. Under the new system, citizens will know the exact schedule for land measurements from the moment they submit their application. "With the scheduled measurement system, the waiting period with scheduling will be a maximum of seven days, and the work duration will be a maximum of five days. So everything will be measurable," Wahid stated in Jakarta.

This new standard targets the completion of regular measurement services within a maximum of 12 days. This includes a maximum waiting period of seven days for scheduling and a maximum of five days for the measurement process and map finalization. Minister Nusron indicated that this service standard would be continuously evaluated through public satisfaction surveys to ensure it meets applicant expectations and to identify areas for further acceleration.

If the seven-day waiting period turns out to be unsatisfactory for applicants, we will shorten it further. If it is satisfactory, that will be our benchmark.

To support the implementation of the scheduled measurement system, the Director General of Land and Spatial Survey and Mapping (SPPR), Virgo Eresta Jaya, has urged regional officials to optimize the deployment of surveyors. The principle of "first in, first out" will be applied to the processing of files after measurements are completed. "I ask the Heads of Land Offices to optimize the waiting time for queues (measurements) by optimizing the Substance Coordinator (Korsub). The Heads of Land Offices must also always monitor and arrange measurement schedules so that services run optimally," said Virgo. The ATR/BPN Ministry developed this system as part of its transformation to improve public services. It is expected to enhance the quality of measurement services, alleviate queues and backlogs, and provide the public with certainty regarding the schedule and completion time for land parcel measurements.
