The traffic congestion conditions in Jakarta prompted the need for the city to rapidly ramp up its public transportation system. As a result, the government had decided to push for the Light Rail Transit (LRT) project, with reference to the President Regulation No. 98 Year 2015 about The Acceleration of Implementation of Public Railway in Jakarta. PT Adhi Karya (Persero) Tbk. was appointed to build and operate the LRT as the Project Developer while a third-party Project Management Consultant (PMC) was needed to ensure smooth and effective implementation of the LRT project. TÜV Rheinland, as a proven and trusted certification body, was appointed as the official PMC to deliver inspecting and consulting during project development and implementation stage.
