Infoglobal Autoptima

It all began on September 9, 1992. Starting on the same vision to utilize IT for life quality improvement, two lecturers from Sepuluh Nopember Institute of Technology (ITS) Surabaya invited two of their students to form an applied research interest group in IT solution development field to apply academic theory into a ready to use solution product. These pioneers are: Abdullah Alkaff, Suhadi Lili, Achmad Hadi, and Seno Hardijanto. This group carries Information, Automation, and Optimization terminologies as an organization spirit, where the three of them are the main pillars of information technology solutions development to cope with problems in various fields. Momentous breakthrough happened when the group was entrusted by Sempati Air to compile Master Plan Airline Management System, as well as realizing it by developing the planned system one at a time, i.e: Route Management System, Flight Management System, and Crew Management System. A year after, in cooperation with Sepuluh Nopember Institute of Technology (ITS) Surabaya, this group was entrusted to build the Geographic Information System (GIS) based Integrated Reporting and Disruption Handling System for PT. PLN (Indonesia electricty company). Furthermore, this group was entrusted by PT. PLN to develop an Automated Mapping / Facility Management (AM/FM) system for electric network. In that time, most PCs had textual based Operating System (such as DOS, etc). Most GIS available are also based on that textual Operating System. Otherwise, the Airline Management System and Integrated Reporting and Disruption Handling System demanded for Windows Operating System based graphical application. It became a challenge to this group to develop components itself as a foundation to develop graphical application modules as well as Geographic Information System to meet the demand. This is the group that then developed to be Infoglobal
