The system integration marks a strategic step for PTBA in establishing more connected and data-driven business processes, supported by stronger and more integrated corporate governance. By integrating processes and data into a single system, PTBA aims to provide more accurate information, improve work efficiency, strengthen internal controls and enable faster and more informed decision-making.

PTBA President Director, Bambang Ismawan, emphasised that SAP implementation is not merely about introducing a new application, but is part of the company’ s broader transformation.

“ What is changing is not only what appears on the screen, but also our people, workflows, data, technology and governance. Processes that once operated separately are now interconnected, data that was once scattered now converges into a single source, and decisions can be made faster based on stronger information,” he explained.

Bambang said the success of this transformation should be measured by the benefits it delivers to the company, including reliable financial reporting, clean data, streamlined processes, stronger internal controls and more effective management decision-making.

“ No change is too great for an organisation that is willing to move forward together. We have proven that we are capable of change. The next challenge is to ensure that this transformation is reflected in the company’ s performance,” he added.

Meanwhile, PTBA President Commissioner, Ida Bagus Putu Dunia, emphasised that the implementation of 1MINDERP SAP is part of a corporate governance transformation involving the entire organisation and aimed at creating sustainable value.

“ SAP is not simply about replacing an application; it is about changing how we work, make decisions, manage data and take accountability for our business processes. Technology enables transformation, but governance determines whether that transformation creates sustainable value,” he said.

Dunia added that system integration will strengthen transparency, internal controls and accountability. The implementation readiness process has also gone through various assurance stages and capability-building initiatives for users.

“ Ultimately, the true asset of this transformation is not the system itself, but the capabilities we build through the system,” he added. �
