PT Putra Perkasa Abadi (PPA) received the prestigious Subroto Award 2024 from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) on Thursday, October 10, 2024.

The Subroto Award is the highest accolade in the energy and mineral resources sector, presented by the Ministry of ESDM to stakeholders who have demonstrated outstanding performance in advancing the sector.

Putra Perkasa Abadi reaffirmed its commitment to operational safety through a principle it has upheld for over two decades, known as "Safe & Strong Operational Performance." This slogan is supported by an "unlimited budget for safety" policy, underscoring PPA's dedication to creating a safe working environment and innovating mining safety technologies.

At the event, President Joko Widodo and Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Bahlil Lahadalia were present to inaugurate the prestigious awards for Indonesia's energy and mineral resources sector.

"PPA highly values the health and safety of its workers, with the highest accident statistics in mining being related to moving objects (vehicles). Therefore, PPA developed technology to enhance worker safety, in line with our tagline, 'Safe and Strong Operational Performance,'" said PPA President Director Joko Triraharjo after receiving the award.

PPA won the Subroto Award in the Mining Safety, Technical, and Environmental Protection category, specifically for Technical and Environmental Innovation in Mining, with the Mining Safety category for Mining Services Companies, through its innovation in heavy equipment safety called Pre-Collision Prevention Drive Assist (PRECISE).

PRECISE is a technology installed on heavy equipment to detect obstacles and calculate their distance while the unit is operating. The system allows the equipment to automatically reduce speed and brake, effectively preventing accidents.

"This Subroto Award is a source of pride for the entire PPA Group, and in the future, we will continue to enhance our technological innovations in mining safety. We also hope that the innovations we have developed can be adopted by other companies to create a safer working environment," Joko added.

This award adds to PPA's achievements at the Good Mining Practice (GMP) Award, organized by the Directorate General of Mineral and Coal in late September.

PPA secured four Aditama (gold) awards for its sites at Adaro Indonesia, MLP, Bukit Asam, and Borneo Indobara. This achievement makes PPA the first Mining Services Company to win the "Best of the Best" trophy in the category of Standardization and Mining Services Management for three consecutive years from the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM).
