EFFECTIVENESS OF E-RKAB MINERBA ESDM FOR EXPLORATION WPB SUBMISSION AT CV SINERGI KARYA SOLUTIF

Abstract

e-RKAB Minerba ESDM is an official website developed by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (Kementerian Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral/ESDM) of the Republic of Indonesia for the submission, evaluation, and approval process of the Work Plan and Budget (WPB) in the mineral and coal mining sector. Through the e-RKAB Minerba ESDM website, mining companies can submit their Work Plan and Budget (WPB) online, upload supporting documents, and monitor the submission status in real time. The purpose of this article is to analyze the effectiveness of using e-RKAB Minerba ESDM for submission the mining exploration Work Plan and Budget (WPB) at CV Sinergi Karya Solutif. The data in this article were collected through direct analysis and interviews with the operational manager at CV Sinergi Karya Solutif. The results of this article indicate that the use of E-RKAB Minerba ESDM is still ineffective, because the system in the E-RKAB Minerba ESDM website does not support automatic revisions. In addition, errors often occur on the e-RKAB Minerba ESDM website when uploading Mining Exploration Work Plan and Budget (WPB) documents. This causes the process of preparing and approving the Mining Exploration Work Plan and Budget (WPB) to take longer, which impacts the continuity of planned mining exploration activities.
