INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

Information technology has become a crucial part of the growth and smooth operation of companies, especially for companies as large as the Adaro Group. With rapid developments both in scale and business sectors, the integrated business of the Company from mining to power generation has a high level of complexity, demanding standardization and best practices in the application of information technology (IT) to enable simpler, structured, and faster workflows, thus achieving targets more efficiently and effectively through optimal productivity.

This thinking has led the company to integrate an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, consisting of several different systems, into 1Adaro ERP, providing the company with a centralized and standardized ERP. This 1Adaro ERP system is integrated with an Executive Dashboard consisting of Microsoft Axapta 2012 and SAP S/4HANA. The migration of these systems began with the implementation of Microsoft Axapta 2012 for the Company in December 2017, with over 25 companies already integrated, followed by the implementation of SAP S/4HANA in SIS, AMC Group, BC Group, AL Group, AI, AMI groups, KPI, and ABI.

The rapid development of information technology also urges the company to enhance and optimize IT infrastructure and facilities to continually accommodate needs and comply with internal regulations and applicable laws. One aspect prioritized is protection against cybercrimes. Therefore, the Company will continue to monitor, review, and implement the latest security measures to protect the interests and needs of stakeholders, including anticipating potential information system disasters.
