JAKARTA - The development of the mega project, Oasis Central Sudirman under the auspices of PT Central Sudirman Development, which is a special collaboration between PT Oasis Central Investment (OCI), which is owned by PT Mitsubishi Estate Co., Ltd. and PT Benhil Property (BP) and PT Taspen Properti Indonesia (Taspen), a subsidiary of the real estate company PT Taspen (Persero), a state-owned company that manages pension funds for Indonesian civil servants, has developed the Oasis Central Sudirman project, a mixed-used development project in the Central Jakarta area.

Mega Proyek ini pertama kali meluncurkan brand-nya 'Two Sudirman Jakarta' dan juga menandatangani kerja sama dengan afiliasi Hyatt Hotels Corporation sebagai perusahaan terpilih untuk melaksanakan operasional pengelolaan hotel dan apartemen dengan nama Andaz Jakarta Sudirman.

The event was attended by the President Director of Mitsubishi Estate Indonesia Yasuaki Oda, Plt. President Director of TASPEN Rony Hanityo Aprianto, and President of Hyatt, Greater China and Growth in Asia Pacific Stephen Ho at the Royal Glasshouse at Park Hyatt Jakarta, in Mantang, Central Jakarta, Thursday 1 August.

This collaboration shows how the joint expertise and vision of these two large companies created a mega project that cannot be realized without synergy from both parties. By carrying the concept of urban oasis, the Two Sudirman Jakarta project occupies an area of 3.3 hectares on Jalan Jenderal Sudirman Kavling 2, Central Jakarta, designed as an iconic building with an integrated multi-purpose function. This is one of the reasons for choosing the name 'Two Sudirman Jakarta'

With this concept, Two Sudirman Jakarta will create a friendly and healthy environment in the middle of Jakarta. The construction of a supertal building with the concept of a green building is expected to become a new benchmark in increasing efficiency, both in terms of maintenance and reducing operational costs.

Two Sudirman Jakarta consists of two towers connected to a retail room, one tower is planned to have a height of approximately 330 meters and consists of 74 floors. The first tower of Two Sudirman will function as a rental office, lifestyle retail, skydeck as well as hotels and serviced apartments. While the second tower will be built as high as approximately 270 meters and consists of 65 floors intended for strata-titile condominiums, called Two Sudirman Private Residences.

In collaboration with Hyatt, Andaz Jakarta Sudirman will offer an unforgettable experience for visitors by combining a luxurious and modern design with a local culture that has become a design trend in many major cities. With nearly 30 properties in resort and urban areas around the world, it will be and will also be the first Andaz hotel in Jakarta.

Two Sudirman Jakarta has a strategic location, close to business centers, trade centers, and shopping centers. This large project is located in the Transit Oriented Development (TOD) area, which offers superior connectivity with various modes of mass transportation such as MRT Jakarta, LRT Jabodebek, Sky Train Airport which connects Jakarta with Soekarno-Hatta International Airport.

Designed by the architecture firm NBBJ, headquartered in Seattle, Washington, USA. NBBJ has a leading portfolio that includes Amazon's Second Headquarters (HQ2) that blends with nature in Virginia, Samsung's innovative Head Office in San Jose, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Headquarters in Seattle, and Tencent Headquarters in Shenzhen, China. These projects demonstrate NBBJ's expertise in creating sophisticated, sustainable, and impactive designs.

For structural engineering, Arup, a well-known USA firm with experience in iconic projects around the world, is trusted to handle the task. Meanwhile, landscape designs are entrusted to TROP, a Bangkok-based landscape design studio known for their creative and collaborative approaches.

In the construction process, Two Sudirman collaborated with China State Construction and Taisei Joint Operation (CSCT-JO) which is a consortium between China State Construction Engineering developers from China and Taisei Corporation from Japan as the main contractor. The signing of the memorandum of cooperation between the two took place in July 2024.

As the main contractor, CSCT-JO is responsible for building structures, architectural completion, as well as mechanical, electronic, and plumbing (MEP) work.

This world-class property project, which is part of this mixed-use development, is expected not only to improve the local economy, but also to maintain overall economic stability. This project will create new jobs and make a significant contribution to the welfare of the Indonesian people, as well as introduce new standards in the design and property services in the region.
