JAKARTA - PT XL Axiata Tbk (XL Axiata) through XL Axiata Business Solutions (XLABS) sees the huge benefits of 5G services for services among corporations and MSMEs. For this reason, in conjunction with the provision of 5G networks by XL Axiata to support the G20 Summit in Bali, XLABS also introduces a number of digital solutions that will be ready to be provided on 5G networks.

One of them, in the form of a showcase for Smart Mining solutions in the Future SME s Village arena, which is a side event of the G20 Summit, at the Bali Collection, Nusa Dua, Saturday, November 13. XL Axiata Director & Chief Technology Officer, I Gede Darmayusa said, it was a matter of pride for XL Axiata to be able to participate in supporting the implementation of the very prestigious G20 Summit, with dozens of heads of state present, through the deployment of the 5G network.

This event is also part of our efforts to show our readiness to hold 5G services in the future. "Every day, our readiness is getting more mature, and our flight hours in managing 5G networks are getting higher," he said.

Gede added, in addition to the readiness to deploy a 5G network, XL Axiata also continues to strengthen this 5G ecosystem, among others by preparing various services that will be carried out in the 5G network. Digital solutions for corporations and MSMEs are among the services prepared.

XL Axiata hopes that when the commercialization of XL Axiata 5G services is launched, the ecosystem will be complete and ready to provide the services needed by the community. For the provision of this 5G network, we are supported by Huawei as a technology partner.

XL Axiata's Chief Enterprise & SME Officer, Feby Sallyanto said that XLABS is committed to supporting the digitization of corporations and MSMEs in Indonesia so that they can be more advanced. This is in line with XLABS' efforts to become an integrated ICT solution provider (Preferred Integrated ICT Solutions Provider), which has also been realized by preparing and developing digital infrastructure, human resources (HR), and 5G-based platforms to support various business sectors in Indonesia.

According to him, digital transformation in the business world has become a necessity to encourage better efficiency, productivity, and product quality.

In the future, the need for LTE and 5G data networks is needed by all sectors and multi-segments. Indirect digital transformation will also encourage an increase in state revenue.

Digitalization and ICT of the mining sector

Feby continued, in the mining sector, the application of 5G-based digital solutions will also be able to support reducing operational costs. Smart Mining itself is the latest integrated technology service that allows the optimization of the mining sector's operational process through the implementation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, Internet of Things (IoT), Machine Learning, to big data.

The goal itself is to increase work safety levels, environmental sustainability, increase productivity and increase cost efficiency.

Mining companies can take advantage of Smart Tracking solutions to increase human resource productivity. On the other hand, human resource efficiency can be done by implementing sensors and remotes. Meanwhile, the efficiency of exploration vehicles can be carried out by implementing a Fleet management solution.

Especially in the mining sector, digitization in the business process will create a better work environment. With the 5G Smart Monitoring and Positioning solution, workplace security can be better maintained. Likewise with the safety of work equipment through the 5G Smart Inspection solution. The inspection or guidance process can be carried out in real-time remotely using Remote Augmented Reality and Troubleshooting facilities," continued Feby.
