In the era of rapid digital transformation, PT PGN Tbk (PGAS) has introduced an innovative application named Quick Engineering Standards and Tools (QUEST), aimed at enhancing the efficiency of engineering tasks and infrastructure management in the gas sector. Launched on September 19, 2024, this tool marks a significant leap in the digitalization efforts of Indonesia’s gas infrastructure sector.
PT PGN Tbk, a subsidiary of Pertamina in the gas sector, has consistently prioritized technological integration to streamline its operations. The introduction of QUEST stands as a testament to PGN’s commitment to embracing digital solutions to meet the growing demands of the sector efficiently.
QUEST is designed as a comprehensive platform that incorporates various engineering calculations and standards to ensure accuracy, speed, and consistency. This move addresses previous challenges in data classification, access, and standardization, presenting a unified solution that significantly cuts down processing times.
The application features three main modules: Siapp Gas-In, Harga Satuan, and Gas Think. Each module is tailored to specific needs, from calculating transportation costs and logistics schemes to providing standardized pricing for materials and construction. These tools collectively enhance decision-making and strategic planning in infrastructure projects.
