The implementation of the merit system policy in National Institute of Public Administration (NIPA) since 2015 has recently gained a positive recognition. In 2019, NIPA has got an excellent rating in the Merit System Index published by the Commission of State Civil Apparatus (KASN). The purpose of this research is to explore NIPA’s experience in implementing the merit system processes, what has been done and how to do it. Through an explorative-qualitative approach, data were collected by interviewing key informants as well as document analysis of the merit system implementation process for the last 5 years (2015-2020) and using participation observer technique. The result showed that NIPA has consistently implemented the merit system according to its principles and regulation during its implementation. It is also found that top leaders’ commitment has played a dominant and significant factor in the successful merit system implementation.
