area of specialization
PT Sumarno Pabottingi (SP) was founded in late 1982 by Messrs. Sumarno and Pabottingi who were joined soon afterwards by two other consultants. The four pioneers had accumulated extensive experience as senior professionals in multinational management consulting companies. They also had several years of experience as senior managers in multinational and large Indonesian companies. Their educational background, professional experience and managerial experience enable SP to provide a wide range of consultancy services combining modern management technology and full understanding of the Indonesian business and cultural environment.

SP was established in response to the urgent needs of state enterprises for consultancy services in the management and financial area. Immediately after its establishment, SP was entrusted by the two largest enterprises in Indonesia, the State Oil Company (Pertamina) and the State Electricity Company (PLN), to render its services as in-house consultants. Their first assignments covered key areas such as capital structure and investment financing strategy. These assignments were successfully completed and led to a rapid extension of the range of SP's consultancy and a steadily expanding list of clients.
SP's clients now include government agencies, public corporations and foreign and domestic companies in the private sector.

In order to provide clients with special expertise, international orientation as well as an access to world-wide class service, SP is associated to:

  • SRI International (formerly Stanford Research Institute), Stanford, California, USA
  • NAVIS LLC (Leader in Container Handling Software), Oakland, California, USA
