Mining Industry Enters Era of Data-Driven Operations
PT Amman Mineral Nusa Tenggara (Amman) is strengthening the use of data, artificial intelligence (AI), and cloud technology to integrate its entire operational line, from mining and smelting to power generation and regasification facilities. Vice President Corporate Communications of Amman, Kartika Octaviana, stated that digitalisation has become a core part of the company’s business strategy in managing increasingly integrated operations. This addresses the growing operational complexity while accelerating data-driven decision-making across all business units. “At Amman, digitalisation is an integral part of the company’s business strategy. Through an increasingly integrated system, we continue to strengthen governance, accelerate decision-making, and optimise company performance,” Kartika said on Thursday. Since 2020, Amman has built a digital foundation connecting various business functions, including finance, procurement, human resources, and data management and analytics, into one integrated ecosystem. This integration enables faster and more transparent data flow between units, thereby improving operational management efficiency. The digital transformation effort was recently recognised at the SAP Customer Excellence Awards for SEA 2026, where Amman won an award in the Autonomous Suite and Data & AI categories. This category assesses a company’s ability to build automated, interconnected digital work processes and utilise data as the basis for business decision-making. Amman’s digital transformation has also been applied to customer-facing services through the development of an Automated Teller Gold Machine (ATGM). This technology allows the gold purchase and redemption process to be conducted digitally, from stock validation to real-time electronic transaction recording. With a business scope covering mining, mineral processing, energy, and supporting infrastructure, data integration is considered a crucial factor in maintaining inter-unit coordination and supporting the company’s growth.
