Program Background

Prospera is an eight-year programme building on two decades of Australia’s support for economic governance in Indonesia. Prospera incorporates 15 Australian Government agencies and over 200 expert advisers and programme staff from diverse backgrounds. Prospera also collaborates closely with the Katalis programme to realise the benefits of the Indonesia-Australia Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement.

Prospera’s goal is to contribute to strong, sustainable, and inclusive economic growth in Indonesia through three breakthrough outcomes:

• Expanding markets creating jobs: Building a robust private sector that creates more high value jobs.
• Safeguarding economic and financial stability: Ensuring a strong foundation for sustainable and inclusive growth.
• Improving public finances and government performance: Enabling a modern, effective and responsible public sector.

Underpinning these breakthrough areas are three enablers: capable and coordinated institutions that support Indonesia’s development transition; gender equality and disability inclusion are advanced; and government of Indonesia and Australia partnerships strengthen.

Prospera commenced in March 2018 and will conclude in February 2026.

The Role

Prospera is seeking the services of a Data Integration & Governance Specialist to collaborate with key counterparts in the Government of Indonesia (GoI) responsible for managing the rollout and utilization of the National Social and Economic Single Data (Data Terpadu Sosial Ekonomi Nasional – DTSEN). The consultant will support Prospera, and key counterparts – including Statistics Indonesia, Bappenas, the National Economic Council (DEN), the Ministry of Social Affairs (MoSA), and the Ministry of Communications and Digital Affairs (Komdigi) – in ensuring successful delivery of project objectives and key deliverables.

President Prabowo Subianto has announced the establishment of a unified, by-name-by-address (BNBA) database on individual and household socioeconomic conditions — Data Tunggal Sosial Ekonomi Nasional/ The National Social and Economic Single Data (DTSEN) — through the issuance of Presidential Instruction No. 4/2025. This initiative mandates 18 ministries and agencies to engage across the DTSEN data lifecycle, with Statistics Indonesia (Badan Pusat Statistik – BPS) designated as the lead agency responsible for integrating the three foundational datasets: Socio-Economic Registration (Registrasi Sosial Ekonomi – Regsosek), Integrated Social Welfare Database (Data Terpadu Kesejahteraan Sosial – DTKS), and Targeting Database for the Acceleration of Extreme Poverty Eradication (Pensasaran Percepatan Penghapusan Kemiskinan Ekstrem – P3KE). BPS is mandated to integrate these datasets and share the resulting DTSEN data with the Ministry of Social Affairs (MoSA), the Coordinating Ministry for Community Empowerment (Kemenko PM), and the Ministry of National Development Planning (Bappenas). These three agencies — in coordination with the National Economic Council (DEN) — are also working to ensure that the integrated data is utilized in the upcoming pilot of digital social assistance delivery.

To support the above effort, Prospera will contract a consulting firm to support its key counterparts in the Government of Indonesia (GoI) responsible for managing DTSEN, including BPS (Statistics Indonesia), Bappenas, the National Economic Council (DEN), the Ministry of Social Affairs (MoSA), and the Ministry of Communications and Digital Affairs (Komdigi). The firm will play a pivotal role in conducting a comprehensive assessment of the current data governance landscape for DTSEN, including a review of the institutional arrangements, legal framework, mandates, and operational procedures that underpin its governance. The Data Integration & Governance Specialist will work closely with Prospera, BPS and GOI counterparts, and the selected firm.
