JAKARTA. State-owned port operator Pelabuhan Indonesia (Pelindo) III has announced that it is developing a full information and communications technology (ICT) system with a total investment of Rp 1 trillion (US$77 million). With the new system, it says, the ICT systems in 14 ports in seven provinces will be connected in real time. Pelindo III president director Djarwo Surjanto said the system would be divided into two main sections, namely front end and back end systems. The front end system will include container, non-container and vessel service applications, among others. Meanwhile, the back end system will comprise applications related to administrative matters, such as human capital and financial management. The front end applications are targeted to be completed in September 2016. “With container applications in the front end system, all service users will be able to monitor the position of their containers in real time. It can be estimated when their containers will arrive at the destination ports. It can all be traced online,” said Djarwo in Surabaya, East Java, last week.
