Untuk mensukseskan perubahan, disarankan dengan membentuk tim analisis perubahan untuk mengevaluasi pra dan pasca perubahan serta kesesuaian kinerja yang diharapkan. Saran lain untuk mengatasi tantangan yang dihadapi meliputi: 1) optimalisasi SDM meliputi penyusunan regulasi tupoksi individu, standar penilaian kinerja, dan pengaturan hak dan kewajiban pegawai, 2) penyusunan kebijakan pengaturan pendidikan tinggi dengan model skenario ‘kepentingan publik’ dalam perguruan tinggi, 3) sinergi regulasi universitas-LPNK-industri, 4) sinkronisasi anggaran dan program melaui trilateral meeting stakeholders, 4)
perencanaan, monitoring, evaluasi dan pelaporan yang terintegrasi teknologi sistem informasi dan 5) manajemen pengetahuan yang didesain dengan memobilisasi kapitalisasi pengetahuan untuk menjamin kesuksesan proses bisnis
