Session 1: Building Culture to Increase Productivity in Mining Contractor Industry Challenges

Maintaining Work Productivity Amidst Modern Challenges in the Mining Industry

In this first session, Hendra Maraden, S.Psi, from the Recruitment & Selection Head will present Building Culture to Increase Productivity in Mining Contractor Industry Challenges. In the mining sector, the company has become the largest production mining contractor in the world that produces more than one billion BCM (Bank Cubic Meter). With the increasing prospects of this company, PT Pamapersada is more selective in managing human resources by paying attention to the company’s system.  Realizing that people come and go, the company built an integrated system, “To be a big company, besides people, we must have a strong system. It must be systematized because people come and go, but the system must keep running” he said. To increase the productivity of its employees, the company is digitizing, namely the PAMA Integrated System which provides the needs of workers.

That way, PT Pamapersada Nusantara proves its productivity by moving forward from what was previously only a heavy equipment rental business to a mining contractor that has been integrated with various operating points. Not only in terms of improved systems, but the company also opens space for employees to develop, such as holding hobby clubs and receiving constructive suggestions for the company. Then, the moderator gave directions to enter the question and answer session.

Session 2: Flow of Recruitment Process in Mining Companies

Pembahasan Produktivitas Kerja

Next, Arika Zulfitri Karim, S.Psi, from the Recruitment & Selection Analyst field, explained the flow of the recruitment process at PT Pamapersada Nusantara. The company supports its employees to work productively and innovatively with synergy between employees and management. With the number of employees reaching 30 thousand, the company continues to improve its functions. The recruitment team is actively looking for the best seeds to maintain the company’s value. “Well, before PAMA people are finally productive, we must first look for people whose DNA is the same as PAMA. Therefore, we recruit ourselves who ultimately have to look for people like that where we have our own criteria,” he said. 

He also advised potential applicants to understand the essence of the company before applying. Arika explained that the flow of the application process at PT Pamapersada is different for D3 and S1, and mentioned the preparation and qualifications required by applicants.

Session 3: Seven Tools and New Seven Tools

Then, Bambang Suratno, MT, ST, Ph.D., as a lecturer from the Industrial Engineering Study Programme started the third session which will review academic perspectives on increasing productivity with Seven Tools and New Seven Tools. The digitalisation carried out by PT Pamapersada Nusantara requires the concept of supporting tools in analyzing related data. Seven Tools are statistical equipment used to solve work problems and seek improvements in work results and processes that are usually needed. Then, he explained that understanding seven tools can help adjust which tools are right for ideas in problem solving. Then there are the New Seven Tools that are commonly used for office management, such as analyzing risks in companies.

He said that these two methods complement each other, ‘So, the two Seven Tools complement each other, which initially (Old Seven Tools) was used more for production related to numerical data. If the new one (New Seven Tools) is to the upper management problem,’ he explained.  Furthermore, it was explained that in its use, the latest Seven Tools were used at the beginning of the research, then numerical data was sought using the old Seven Tools. 

The third session ended after a short question and answer session from the participants to the speakers and continued with the closing of this seminar series by the MC. From this meeting, it is hoped that it can increase the productivity of UII students, as well as add insight to participants and help prepare themselves for a better work environment.

ERP Talks 2024: ERP Integration

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Laboratory, Industrial Engineering UII held their annual agenda, ERP Talks on Tuesday (16/6). This year’s event was themed “Exploring the Integration Between Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Corporate Management in Multinational Company”. The activity took place online through Zoom Meeting and was attended by 104 participants.

Inggil Tahta and Vira Dwi as MCs opened the series of events in the morning by reciting basmalah and reading the program schedule. Next, the coordinator of the ERP Laboratory Assistant, Muhammad Zidan Al-Fachri gave his speech. He hoped that this activity could be an opportunity to understand how important ERP science is. “After we have practiced for 6 months, we want to give feedback. Actually what is the future function of what you have done in practicum, how important ERP is in the future world of work,” he said.

Danang ERP Talks

Furthermore, there were remarks by the Head of the ERP Laboratory, Danang Setiawan, S.T., M.T. “ERP Talks is a routine forum of the ERP Laboratory. Usually we invite UII Industrial Engineering alumni who have careers in the ERP field to attend as speakers,” he said.

Tita Safira as the moderator directly guided the material delivery session. Hibatul Wafi Abrar, who is an alumnus of Industrial Engineering UII, was the guest speaker at the event that day. He is currently a Platform Experience Associate at Accenture.

ERP Benefits

“In my opinion, the benefits of ERP are only two, the most impactful. First, Integration & Efficiency, then second, Business Development,” he said.

In Integration & Efficiency, we can see Indomaret as an example. Indomaret’s ERP integrates various business functions for operational efficiency. When a customer buys chocolate, the POS system records the purchase and updates the inventory stock. If the stock is running low, the ERP gives a notification for procurement. These transactions are recorded in the financials in real-time. ERP enables reporting and analytics that help management in decision-making, ensuring a balance between demand and inventory and optimal customer service.

ERP Talks 2024

Next, in Business Development. There are three things that can be highlighted about why ERP affects Business Development. First, ERP helps in real time and insight. The more data you have, you can know what is happening in the field or company. Second, streamlined operations, which is about efficiency and integration. Third, enhance collaboration between divisions. A good ERP system will greatly support companies that want to grow. 

After the presentation of the material was completed, ERP Talks was finalized with a discussion and Q&A session.

Industrial Engineering UII Conducts Fire Safety Training

Fire Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Training is one of the training programs that aims to provide students with the knowledge and skills to manage fire risks in industrial work environments. Therefore, Industrial Engineering Study Program, Faculty of Industrial Technology, Universitas Islam Indonesia (UII) in collaboration with Campus Facilities Manager of the Waqf Board Foundation of Universitas Islam Indonesia (PFK YBW UII) and CV. Segala Safety Yogyakarta conducted training for students of batch 2022. The program was held on (15/7) in the courtyard near Ki Bagoes Hadikoesoemo Sports Building (GOR). On this occasion, Chancard Basumerda, S.T., M.Sc., as one of the OHS lecturers accompanied the event.

An introduction to fire and various types of extinguishers was the beginning of this fire OHS training event. Then, the main activity in the training was a simulation of extinguishing a fire using a wet cloth, fire extinguisher, and hydrant. In this activity, the students actively participated in demonstrating how to extinguish the fire properly. The training simulation needs to pay attention to the direction of the wind on the drum that has caught fire.

Next, the resource person from CV. Segala Safety Yogyakarta explained about the types of fire extinguishers (APAR) and their size variations. In this OHS fire training, students use the type of CO2 or carbon dioxide extinguisher and dry powder extinguisher with sizes ranging from 3 kg to 6 kg. In addition, the resource person also explained that there is maintenance for fire extinguishers, one of which is to shake the fire extinguisher once a while.

Furthermore, students also simulated fire extinguishing using hydrants in the courtyard of GOR UII. In the fire safety training, the speaker introduced two types of fire hoses, namely red hose and white hose. This color variation occurs due to differences in the materials they are made of, the white hose is made of burlap sacks and the red hose is made of rubber. With the implementation of this fire safety training program, it is hoped that students can utilize the knowledge and skills they have gained to maintain the safety of themselves and others in the work environment.

UII PKM-K Team Creates Ointment Innovation as Wound Therapy

The PKM-Kewirausahaan (Entrepreneurship) team of Universitas Islam Indonesia (UII) consisting of students from the Industrial Engineering and Pharmacy majors succeeded in making innovative ointment products. The team consists of Mumtaz Fahd Rifmawan Ms, Andi Muh Khaidir Resqullah, Muhammad Arif Fadhillah, Sofa Tasya Kamila, and Khanza Adinda Salsabila. Under the guidance of Ir. Muchamad Sugarindra, S.T., M.T.I., IPM, the team succeeded in creating an innovation titled “Multipin Salep: Innovation of Kalanchoe Pinnata and Jatropha Multifida Extract Ointment with Jasmine Scent as Wound Therapy Using Grassroots Campaign Strategy”.

Multipin ointment is a wound ointment product derived from the plants Kalanchoe Pinnata (cocor bebek) and (Jatropha Multifida) jarak tintir which have been proven as plants that have properties in wound healing. This ointment also has no side effects because it uses herbal ingredients and also has the advantage of having a jasmine flower aroma.

The idea for this product arose because abrasions and cuts are often experienced by many people in Indonesia, and many of them still rely on traditional medicine or herbs. By using natural ingredients from herbal plants, this wound ointment has the advantage of a lower risk of side effects compared to chemical products. The selected herbs are jarak tintir (Jatropha multifida Linn) and cocor bebek (Kalanchoe pinnata Lamk) due to their beneficial content in wound healing. Jarak tintir contains anti-bacterial substances such as alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, and saponins. Meanwhile, cocor bebek leaves contain flavonoids, steroids, saponins, and tannins that have anti-inflammatory effects or reduce inflammation. In addition, this product uses jasmine essential oil to provide a distinctive jasmine floral aroma.

The preparation of this ointment goes through three main stages, which are the making of simplisia powder, extracts, and ointment preparations. The preparation of Multipin ointment begins with washing, slicing, and drying the leaves of cocor bebek and jarak tintir. The dried simplisia was pulverized and stored. The powdered simplisia was then extracted with 96% ethanol for three days, filtered, and evaporated to obtain a thick extract. To make the ointment, Cera Alba and Vaselin Album were melted, then mixed with extracts, preservatives, glycerin, and jasmine essential oil until homogeneous. The finished ointment was put into a tube and labeled.

In conducting marketing strategies, Multipin Ointment products conduct online and offline marketing. Online marketing is done through social media and e-commerce such as Shopee. Meanwhile, for offline media through partner cooperation with a grassroots campaign strategy, namely working with pharmacies and traditional herbal medicine stores in marketing products.
