Research statement

The Indonesia Logistics Harmonisation Study (the Study) identified a set of efficiency barriers along Jakarta’s international sea port logistics chain, and proposed solutions, which if addressed by industry and government, could increase sea freight logistics efficiency in the short term. The Study was designed to support industry change from the inside out. The Study therefore harnessed the expert opinions of operators and public agencies at each stage of Jakarta’s international containerised sea freight logistics chain; tested and validated the opinions in relation to whole of supply chain reality; prioritised the list; and proposed the measures that would, if implemented, increase logistics chain efficiency for Indonesia in the next 18 months. The Study focused on the opportunities to improve logistics chain efficiency in the short term. Any initiative that feasibly could not be achieved with 18 months was not included in the report. To be included, each issue and solution had to pass the “realistic, practical to achieve and sustainable” test. Industry was clear that it did not want to stand still and wait for longer term infrastructure development projects to be planned, funded and built, but rather it sought efficiency improvement, wherever it could be achieved, now and in the short term.
