Jakarta, August 20, 2025 – IPC Terminal Petikemas (IPC TPK), a subsidiary of Pelindo Terminal Petikemas subholding, has begun implementing the Terminal Booking System (TBS) to schedule truck arrivals in the Tanjung Priok Port operational area. With this system, port congestion can be reduced, operational efficiency improved, truck waiting times shortened, and fuel consumption and pollution minimized.

In addition to TBS, IPC TPK is also developing various digital innovations through TOS Nusantara, which integrates container movement data under Pelindo Terminal Petikemas. This digital transformation aims to make services faster, more transparent, and easier for customers to access, said IPC TPK President Director Guna Mulyana during a media briefing in Jakarta, Wednesday (8/20).

In 2025, IPC TPK is carrying out strategic initiatives such as the implementation of a Join Gate, construction of a Container Scanner, standardization of operations (Planning and Control), implementation of the TOS Nusantara system, enhancement of human resources competence and capabilities, and asset optimization. These initiatives are aimed at achieving a container traffic target of 3,504,423 TEUs and revenue of IDR 2.9 trillion in 2025.

IPC TPK faces the challenge of maintaining the Yard Occupancy Ratio (YOR) below 65% at Tanjung Priok Port, in line with port authority policy. This YOR limit is intended to prevent truck queue congestion that could hinder the flow of goods.

We will continue to focus on improving services, opening additional route services, and digitalization so that the port becomes more efficient, he said.

From January to July 2025, IPC TPK recorded positive performance. Container throughput reached 2,009,185 TEUs, an increase of 15% compared to the same period in 2024, which stood at 1,749,093 TEUs. This growth occurred in most IPC TPK terminal areas, including: Tanjung Priok area overall up 15.8%, Panjang area up 31.1%, Palembang area up 4%, Teluk Bayur area up 17.9%, and Pontianak area up 6.8%.

Performance growth in July 2025 compared to the previous year was driven by several commodities, including: coffee exports up 311%, imports of animal food supplements from Lampung up 405%, rubber exports from South Sumatra up 122%, and domestic container volume to and from Pontianak up 24% compared to the previous month.

In addition to operational performance, the company is also strengthening connectivity by opening new shipping routes. Over the past three years, 23 additional domestic and international routes have been recorded, including to China, Russia, Oman, and Papua New Guinea. This year, new routes have been opened through cooperation with Marsa Ocean Shipping, Meratus Line, Indo Container Line, and MSC Line.

Connectivity and reducing port stay are key to cutting logistics costs, both for domestic trade and exports, said Guna Mulyana.

In line with its sustainability agenda, IPC TPK is implementing a program to electrify loading and unloading equipment, optimizing digitalization to reduce emissions, standardizing P&C functions across all operational areas, and expanding green areas in the terminal.
