The last Debriefing Meeting I chaired was held in March 2025, during which Dr. Wan Hairul served as our Senior Research Manager (SRM). However, his tenure at the Research Management Centre (RMC) was short-lived, lasting only 40 days. Subsequently, Nur Fatimah Marwar took over the responsibilities. In line with recent organizational restructuring, we no longer use the title SRM; the role has since evolved into two separate leadership functions\u2014Head of Profund Unit and Head of Promans Unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, four months later, we convened the next Debriefing Meeting, which marks a renewed commitment to holding these sessions regularly every month, InsyaAllah<\/em>. Despite current manpower limitations, the Project Management and Monitoring Division (PMMD) continues to strive toward operational stability and effectiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Debriefing Meeting serves as a critical platform to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Discuss and resolve pressing issues faced by both PMMD and the Finance Department (FD).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Align and synchronize work processes, particularly in areas of overlapping responsibilities, such as grant activation, fund disbursement, and reporting mechanisms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meeting Highlights \u2013 8 July 2025:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Time:<\/strong> 2:30 PM \u2013 4:50 PM<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Venue:<\/strong> RMC’s BM1<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Chaired by:<\/strong> Myself<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    This session proved to be particularly challenging and complex, with numerous issues<\/strong> tabled for discussion. Notably:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Two key issues require separate follow-up meetings due to the involvement of multiple stakeholders and the need for cross-unit consensus before a decision can be made.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Several other matters, however, were successfully deliberated and resolved, Alhamdulillah<\/em>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Despite the hurdles, the collaborative spirit between PMMD and FD was evident, and all parties demonstrated a shared commitment to improving workflows and service delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      As we move forward, these meetings will be instrumental in fostering a more responsive, accountable, and integrated research management ecosystem at UTM. Regular debriefings will not only improve efficiency but also enhance transparency and mutual understanding across divisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Other tasks of the day:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Endorsing several End Reports (ER)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Completing the Examiners Report form for Qualifying Assessment to PhD (MJIIT), for Engineering Education research —> Refer image above.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Brief meeting with my SPACE FYP student – Pik.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Dealt with various RMC issues (as usual).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
