As a result, project schedules and progress remained on track and cost overruns were minimised," said Agung BW.

Various efficiency measures were also adopted by reducing business and operating costs. These measures were taken to ensure that no employees were terminated, among other objectives.

"We believe that human capital is the core driver of WIKA's business operations, which will get the company ready to return to its growth path once the situation improves," said Agung BW.

In 2021, WIKA aims to secure Rp40.12 trillion in new contracts with the target of securing Rp115.02 worth of contracts in its order book.
