The maritime industry, traditionally reliant on intuition and experience-based decision-making, is undergoing a transformation with the increasing adoption of digital marketing strategies. However, the epistemological foundations of this transition remain underexplored, particularly in the context of leadership and strategic decision-making. This research examines how maritime leaders, lecturers, and postgraduate students perceive and integrate data-driven marketing strategies into maritime business management. The study provides original value by addressing the gap in maritime leadership research regarding digital marketing epistemology. Unlike previous studies that primarily focus on technical adoption, this research critically analyzes the philosophical and cognitive frameworks influencing digital marketing decision-making. The primary objective is to explore the extent to which digital marketing decisions in maritime leadership are guided by empirical data rather than intuition. Using qualitative research and descriptive analysis, semi-structured interviews were conducted with maritime experts, lecturers, and postgraduate students. Data were analyzed thematically, categorizing responses into competency development, sustainability, and digital transformation barriers. Findings reveal that while data-driven strategies are acknowledged as valuable, traditional leadership models still dominate. Digital marketing adoption is constrained by limited expertise, regulatory challenges, and skepticism toward analytics. The study concludes that bridging this gap requires integrating epistemological inquiry into maritime education and fostering collaboration between industry and academia. Strengthening digital literacy among maritime leaders is essential for ensuring the sustainable and strategic use of digital marketing in the sector.

Abstract: The New Student Admission Information System (SIPMB) at STMIK Kaputama aims to enhance efficiency and transparency in the student admission process. This study conducted an information system audit using the COBIT 5 framework to evaluate system maturity and provide improvement recommendations. The audit results indicate that the system has not met the expected targets in all domains, with an average maturity level of 1.35 or 135%, classified as Fully Achieved (F). However, according to the capability model mapping condition index, the value is at level 1 (Performed Process). STMIK Kaputama needs to increase openness to innovation inputs and clear communication with prospective students to avoid errors in the admission process, as well as improve service quality for prospective students.
