Detailed Engineering Design for a Cocoa Plant in Indonesia

Project Overview:

Project: Cocoa Plant
Client: Confidential
Location: Gresik, Indonesia
IntES Services: Engineering

About Our Client:

Our client is one of the global leading food and agribusiness, headquartered in the USA.

About the Project:

As a substantial investment to Indonesia, one of the world’s largest cocoa-producing countries in the world, the project represents the client’s commitment to bring innovative food solutions to customers across Asia and around the world. In particular, the scale of the project is around 50,000sqm with a specific focus on the warehouse for the cocoa beans.

Our team was entrusted to help the client with the required scope of the Civil, Structural, Architectural, Mechanical, Fire Fighting, and HVAC design for this new Cocoa Plant in Indonesia.

IntES Approach:

The main responsibility of our IntES team in the first stage was to review, complete, and develop the Concept design and Basic design provided by the client. This involved proposing technical options for building services equipment design in accordance with local & international regulations, codes & standards. The most important thing at this stage was that our engineers focused on safety and efficiency in design and operation.

Simultaneously, we proposed the layout solution and layout for the goods flow, while also conducting the topography mapping survey to gain information about the project area. These steps were crucial in preparing the engineering work for the next stage.

Starting the detail design stage, our engineering team leveraged BIM (Building Information Modeling) software to undertake the design, particularly using Revit, for all disciplines in this stage. We collaborated with the client team to complete the detail engineering, including architectural landscape design and 3D rendering. Our team managed and led the design in the BIM360 environment, ensuring a cohesive and integrated approach to the project. At the end of this stage, when the design was approved and qualified then it was frozen and issued for tender and construction permit.

To maximize the outcome of the project, we appointed experienced engineers from the High-Value Engineering Center in Vietnam and from our pool of experts in Indonesia, with local certifications and experience.
