As Indonesia continues its journey to becoming a global digital leader, the government has announced a major restructuring of its digital ecosystem. The Directorate of SDPPI (Directorate General of Resources and Equipment of Post and Informatics) and the Directorate of PPI (Directorate of Post and Informatics) have officially merged to form the Directorate General of Digital Infrastructure (DJID). This transformation aligns with Indonesia’s broader strategy to accelerate digital innovation as part of its Digital Indonesia 2045 Vision.
This significant change is governed by Presidential Regulation No. 174 of 2024, which outlines the new role and structure of the Ministry of Communication and Digital (Komdigi). For businesses in telecommunications, digital technology, and related sectors, this restructuring presents both opportunities and challenges.
What the SDPPI and PPI Merger Means for Your Business
The integration of SDPPI and PPI into DJID brings notable implications for businesses operating in telecommunications, digital technology, and adjacent industries. Here are the key changes:
1. Streamlined Certification Processes
The newly formed DJID will oversee equipment certifications, licensing, and regulatory compliance under a unified framework. This centralization is expected to eliminate redundancies, simplify procedures, and improve efficiency.
2. Updated Certification Standards
Starting January 20, 2025, DJID will implement new certification requirements, including:
- A New Logo: Updated identification for certified equipment.
- Revised Certificate Numbering: A fresh format for easier tracking and verification.
- Posterior Labeling Requirements: Businesses must comply with updated labeling regulations for telecommunications equipment to meet the latest standards.
These updates aim to enhance transparency and ensure regulatory compliance within Indonesia’s rapidly evolving digital landscape.
