Centrally located in the heart of Jakarta’s business district, Graha Niaga Tata Utama is a property and building management firm owned and operated by Bahana. The group’s move into this field was precipitated by the goal of diversification and characterised by success in quickly establishing its subsidiary as a formidable player adept at overseeing the management of strategically located landmarks.
Graha Niaga Tata Utama’s present operations focus on providing office space to big name companies. In doing so the company emphasises its compliance with the highest standards of international certification including ISO 9001:2000 for Quality Management Systems, awarded by Lloyd's Registered Quality Assurance (LRQA) in 2005 and subject to regular surveillance audits.
The company has also been ahead of the curve in adapting to the growing trend towards environmental responsibility on the part of businesses in Indonesia. In 2007, Graha Niaga Tata Utama’s leading property, the Graha Niaga building on Jl. Jendral Sudirman, was judged by the Governor of Jakarta to have fulfilled all criteria for the Environmental Management Adherence certification. To receive this prestigious distinction, the property management firm displayed quality and efficiency in implementing environmentally conscious waste management systems (for solid, liquid and toxic waste) as well as firmly imposed no smoking zones in public areas. This technical expertise in creating eco-friendly properties is further supplemented by a distinct architectural design that juxtaposes refined luxury with greenery and an abundance of open-air public spaces. The Graha Niaga building was also among the first central business district office towers to have made available a designated parking lot for bicycles.
Bahana’s foray into the property management industry is demonstrative of its position as an influential state owned enterprise now tasked with re-investing its gains into different sectors to facilitate wide spread growth. Going forward, the group expects to tap into the same principles that have long served its businesses in finance to develop a reputation for Graha Niaga Tata Utama synonymous with the highest standards of service for tenants.
