PURWAKARTA - The construction of the main building and supporting facilities for the Indonesian manufacturing center or Indonesia Manufacturing Center (IMC) in Purwakarta, West Java, has been 100 percent completed in August 2024.
Minister of Industry (Menperin) Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita said the development of the IMC is a form of real effort from the Ministry of Industry (Kemenperin) to accelerate the increase in competitiveness and independence of the national industry in order to be able to produce industrial machine products, most of which are still imported and support programs to increase the use of domestic products (P3DN).
"IMC can be a catalyst for the Machine Making Machine (3M) program through the pentahelix collaboration between the government, industry, universities, research institutions and the community/community," said Minister of Industry Agus in his virtual remarks in Purwakarta, West Java, Monday, October 14.
IMC will become a center for collaboration in the development and utilization of industrial technology equipped with infrastructure, institutions, human resources, machinery and equipment as well as the manufacturing industry's Information and Communication Technology (ICT) system.
Meanwhile, Secretary General of the Ministry of Industry Eko SA Cahyanto said that the IMC building is one of the keys to industrial development in making and controlling various machines needed to produce industrial products.
"We invite all parties who have an interest and have competence in order to build these machines to be able to collaborate on the IMC," he said.
The IMC development is carried out in multi-years from 2022 to 2024. The IMC development stage begins with groundbreaking activities on December 5, 2022 and is declared 100 percent complete on August 16, 2024.
IMC development achieved a domestic component level (TKDN) of 70.41 percent using a lot of local materials and labor. The IMC building is also designed to be environmentally friendly, where the main IMC building has received a certificate for the main green building (BGH).

"We hope that with this IMC, we can control more the capital goods that we import in order to build an industry in Indonesia," he added.
