The phenomenon of the low performance of many lecturers in Indonesian universities has led to the development by several universities of a performance measurement system for lecturers (PMSL). Until now, research examining the impact of the implementation of PMSL on lecturers- performance has been very difficult to find. Therefore, this study aims to empirically examine the effect of PMSL implementation and role clarity on lecturers- performance. The testing of role clarity as an intervening variable is also attempted. Using data from 203 questionnaires obtained from lecturers at leading private universities in Indonesia (accredited “excellent” and with internationalisation programmes), we tested the hypotheses using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) approach. The results reveal that the implementation of PMSL, and role clarity significantly, has a positive effect on lecturers- performance. Also, this study concluded that role clarity has a role as an intervening variable.
