Open Access Policy

PROCURATIO: Jurnal Manajemen & Bisnis is committed to promoting the free and unrestricted dissemination of scholarly knowledge through an open access publishing model. The journal provides immediate online access to its published articles, allowing readers, researchers, students, practitioners, and the wider academic community to access and use scholarly research without subscription fees or access barriers.

1. Free and Immediate Access

All articles published in PROCURATIO are freely available online immediately upon publication. Readers do not need to register, subscribe, or pay any fee to read, download, copy, or access the full text of published articles, subject to the terms of the applicable license.

The journal believes that providing free access to research strengthens academic collaboration, encourages the exchange of ideas, and broadens the potential impact of scholarly contributions in management and business studies.

2. Open Access Principles

PROCURATIO follows the principle that making research freely accessible to the public supports a wider global exchange of knowledge. The journal's open access policy is intended to:

• Provide equal opportunities for readers to access scholarly publications regardless of their institutional affiliation or financial circumstances.
• Facilitate the dissemination of research findings to academic, professional, and public audiences.
• Encourage the use, discussion, and development of published research in accordance with the applicable copyright and licensing terms.
• Support transparency, knowledge sharing, and the advancement of research in management and business.

3. Copyright and Licensing

Open access does not mean that published articles are free from copyright protection. Copyright and permitted reuse are governed by the journal's Copyright and License Policy and the license stated on each published article.

Users are expected to acknowledge the original authors and source when citing, sharing, or reusing published material and to comply with the applicable licensing terms. Any reuse beyond the permissions granted by the license or applicable law requires appropriate authorization.

Readers and authors are encouraged to consult the journal's Copyright and License Policy for detailed information about copyright ownership, attribution, redistribution, and adaptation of published works.

4. Access and Publication Charges

Readers can access published articles without paying subscription or download fees. Any charges applicable to authors, including an Article Processing Charge (APC), are governed by the journal's separately published fee policy and are not imposed on readers for accessing the journal's content.

Information about author fees, where applicable, is communicated transparently through the journal's official website. Such charges do not replace the editorial assessment or peer-review process, and editorial decisions are based on the manuscript's academic merit and compliance with the journal's publication standards.

5. Commitment to Knowledge Dissemination

Through its open access policy, PROCURATIO seeks to make research findings more visible, accessible, and useful to the global academic community. The journal encourages responsible sharing and citation of published work to support research development, evidence-based decision-making, and the advancement of management and business practices.
