The Implementation of Smart Port in Tanjung Priok Port for Utilization and Green Port Optimization

Abstract

In the digital era, Information Technology (IT) has become a major and widespread factor in various sectors. IT becomes a driver of utilization in all aspects, one of which is in the Port. Tanjung Priok Port plays a major role in supporting the mobility of goods and people and the economy in Indonesia. In 2018 Indonesia's Logistics Performance Index (LPI) is ranked 46 with a score of 3.15. LPI score is obtained from several components. According to the level of truck movement density at the port,  Indonesian Government has made Delivery Orders (DO) online to maximize efforts to reduce density, which is also one of the Smart Port components. The advantage of Smart Port makes cargo owners/consignee, shipping line, and freight forwarder  apply for DO documents via online. Therefore, the manual processing of DO reaches 300,000 in 2 days, 81% saving time and 85% saving queue after applying online DO.  This system requires trust and transparency of each stakeholder so that it helps smooth the implementation of Smart Port which also requires synergy between stakeholders and lack of sectoral ego. The optimal smart port will also  help to achieve the concept of effective and efficient Green Port. This research was conducted using a qualitative approach because it was about to clearly and deeply describe the activities that had been carried out. We recommend implementing Smart Port at Tanjung Priok Port with Mycargo platform to achieve a port that is well integrated with IT.v
