On September 17, PT Hutama Karya Infrastruktur (HKI) officially entered into a collaboration with the Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB). The partnership was formalized through the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), held in conjunction with the launch of the Center for Infrastructure & Built Environment (CIBE) at the ITB Campus in Bandung.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe scope of this collaboration includes training, development, and research activities related to Lean Construction within HKI,\u201d said Fatma Dewi Setyowati, Director of Operations I at HKI. She explained that this partnership is a follow-up to the implementation of Lean Construction in one of HKI\u2019s project segments, namely the Pekanbaru\u2013Dumai Toll Road Section 2A. \u201cManagement has seen positive results from applying Lean Construction in that section, which led us to the conclusion that this working philosophy and method should be adopted more broadly and systematically across our other projects,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
Previously, HKI had successfully implemented Lean Construction to accelerate the completion of one of the critical tasks in the Pekanbaru\u2013Dumai Section 2A project, specifically the underpass at STA 28+150. \u201cBy applying Lean Thinking principles through Lean Construction, we were able to significantly reduce delays\u2014even though this was implemented mid-project. We believe that implementing Lean Construction from the planning phase in future toll road projects under the Trans-Sumatra Toll Road (JTTS) program, such as the 36.5 km Pekanbaru\u2013Bangkinang and 65 km Indralaya\u2013Prabumulih segments, will produce even better outcomes,\u201d Fatma said.<\/p>\n
About PT Hutama Karya Infrastruktur (HKI)<\/strong><\/p>\n PT Hutama Karya Infrastruktur (HKI) is a subsidiary of the state-owned enterprise PT Hutama Karya (Persero). Established in 2015, HKI was formed to maximize the benefits of the Indonesian Government\u2019s assignment to Hutama Karya in developing the Trans-Sumatra Toll Road (JTTS).<\/p>\n Since its establishment, HKI has continued to deliver strong corporate performance. By the end of 2018, HKI recorded a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 143.32% in revenue and 138% in net profit, driven by increasing project contracts under the JTTS program and the company\u2019s proven capability in delivering high-quality toll road construction.<\/p>\n HKI has completed the Palembang\u2013Indralaya segment (22 km), as well as Sections 2 and 3 of the Medan\u2013Binjai Toll Road (6 km and 4.5 km, respectively). Currently, the company is working on the Pekanbaru\u2013Dumai Toll Road (131.4 km), targeted for completion by the end of 2019, and the Padang\u2013Sicincin segment. HKI has also secured new contracts for the Pekanbaru\u2013Bangkinang and Indralaya\u2013Prabumulih segments.<\/p>\n With ongoing JTTS construction plans extending for years to come, HKI continues to innovate across all business sectors, aiming to enhance operational efficiency and effectiveness, ultimately optimizing value for shareholders and other stakeholders.<\/p>\n About Lean Construction<\/strong><\/p>\n Lean Construction is a method for designing construction project work systems that can identify waste (inefficiency) so that anything that does not add value can be minimized or eliminated. The goal of applying Lean Construction is to optimize project execution, considering common obstacles such as material delays, ineffective human resources, and waste management issues, which often hinder the smooth completion of projects.

\nAlthough Lean Construction is not yet widely implemented in Indonesia\u2019s construction industry, due to its relatively unfamiliar principles, its positive impact can be significant when applied correctly. Benefits include improved performance, safety, and ultimately, more cost-efficient project execution.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
