JAKARTA - The Financial and Development Supervisory Agency (BPKP) has not received a request for an audit letter for the construction of the Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) proposed by the Acting Governor of DKI Jakarta Heru Budi Hartono. This was revealed by BPKP spokesman Azwad Zamroodin. Possibly, according to Azwad, Heru submitted a proposal for an audit of the JIS project to the DKI Jakarta Provincial BPKP. "As far as I know, there has been no application (JIS audit). The center has not. Try asking the representatives of DKI. Maybe go there because the level of the work area," said Azwad in a short message, Thursday, July 27. Separately, the Head of the General Section of the DKI Jakarta BPKP Representative, Yudhi Adriansyah, said that his party had not yet received a request for an audit of the stadium located in Tanjung Priok, North Jakarta. "So, until this afternoon there has been no request," said Yudhi. Heru Budi some time ago said that the DKI Provincial Government asked BPKP to audit JIS. However, as of today the request has not been submitted to BPKP. In response to this, Heru Budi submitted the proposal process to the DKI Jakarta Inspectorate. "Yes, later ask the Inspectorate," said Heru at the DKI Jakarta City Hall. The request for an audit of the JIS project was raised by the PDIP faction of the DKI Jakarta DPRD after the emergence of clarification from Buro Happold, a design, engineering and consulting service company from England. Responding to this pressure, Heru Budi said that the DKI Jakarta Inspectorate had conducted an internal audit of the stadium project that had been built since the Anies Baswedan era. In fact, Heru admitted that he asked BPKP to participate in the audit. The reason is that Buro Happold clarified by stating that his party did not design JIS and was not involved in the construction of the stadium that was founded since the Anies Baswedan era. "Jakarta Konsultindo (Jakkon) asked Buro Happold to make design guidelines (design guidelines) and provide consulting services, from December 2018 to March 2019," wrote Buro Happold's statement. The scope of work includes preparation for the creation of a design guide (preparation of concept design guide), assessment for technical and commercial issues (technical and commercial assessment), concept of master plan for areas around the stadium (concept master plan for the surrounding area), as well as roadmap implementation of the project (implementation roadmap). "During the time of making the guide, the company ensures that all aspects related to FIFA standards are met," he explained. Furthermore, after the series of jobs above was completed, Buro Happold was asked to review the design concept prepared by other parties, which in this case was the consultant appointed by Jakkon.

"The company's results of the review identified several aspects that did not match the original design concept guide from Buro Happold. These findings have been submitted by Buro Happold in a separate letter," he explained.
