PT Barumun Agro Sentosa was previously certified under the company name PT First Mujur Plantation & Industry, which was established in year 1990. The change of company name was agreed by the company’s shareholders according to Act no. 303 dated 28 December 2010 from the Humberg Lie SH, SE, Mkn Notary and approved by the Republic of Indonesia Ministry of Law and Human Rights as per decision letter no. AHU-08277.AH.01.02 year 2011 regarding the change of the company’s statutes.

The company was initially entitled to govern a concession area of 12,319 ha and as stated in the certification report for PT FMPI, the mill is also receiving FFB supply from another small estate area within Aek Kulim estate which is owned by the company but the company has yet to receive the land use certificate (Hak Guna Usaha – HGU) for this area which covers 1,500 ha. At time of certification, the company had the location permit no. 503/0398/K/2009 dated 24 Sept 2009 (the location permit revision no. 503/232/K/2012 date 17 July 2012 about on behalf PT Barumun Agro Sentosa now) from the North Padang Lawas government head for 1,500 ha of land located in Jambu Tonang, Menanti, Huta Raja, Pasir Lancat and Ujang Batu Jae Village, located on Simangambat sub-district, North Padang Lawas District of North Sumatera. The company has since received the Plantation Operation Permit no. 503/157/KPTS/2011 for this 1,500 ha of land on 28 May 2011. As such, the total company’s area is now 13,819 ha and the company is now in process to obtain the land use right (Hak Guna Usaha – HGU) for the area of 1,500 ha. And currently all the requirement already fulfill and waiting for decision from Indonesia National Land Agency.

Fresh fruit bunches (FFB) from the company’s own estates are processed independently by Aek Sigala-gala Palm Oil Mill with an initial installed capacity of 30 tonnes per hour, but had now been increased to 50 tonnes per hour. The company has 3 estates i.e. Aek Sigala-gala Estate, Aek Barumun Estate and Aek Kulim Estate. Each estate consists of 5 divisions, and is managed by an estate manager, while each division is managed by a field assistant along with division assistant for transport and office.

2.3 Assessment Methodology & Agenda

The surveillance was conducted August 23 to 25, 2016 as per the audit plan below. The assessment was carried out in accordance with TUV Rheinland Indonesia RSPO audit procedure as well as the RSPO Certification Systems document. During assessment, the qualified TUV Rheinland assessors used the RSPO standard (generic) 2013 in which the assessment took place and recorded their findings. Due to the location and proximity of the estates, combined with common management systems, it was possible to carry out both field and document assessments of all estates and the mill within the time frame without compromising the integrity of the assessment in anyway. All 3 estates and 1 mill were visited and the assessment team carried out field and document assessments of compliance to all the RSPO principles and criteria. Common systems were identified and specific evidence was recorded for individual estates. Interviews were conducted at all estates and the mill. The company proposed the correction and corrective action for all identified non conformities raised to the certification body 30 days after the closing meeting.
