5. SITUATION ANALYSIS
Merging two giants
to serve Indonesia’s
life insurance industry
International Holdings, as well as the
Indonesian Financial Services Authority
(OJK). Tightening regulations in the
industry—including the introduction of
new laws, tighter capital requirements, and
tariff regulations—have created stringent
requirements for reports that must be
delivered in a timely fashion. With the
company’s previous existing accounting
systems, it was a challenge for Astra Life
to meet its monthly reporting deadlines.
Astra Life wanted a solution that could
make reporting to their stakeholders easier,
eliminate the risk of paying high penalties
for late submissions, and avoid the risk
of losing its license to operate as an
insurance company.
Staying current with
reporting challenges
PT ASTRA AVIVA LIFE, also known as
Astra Life, is a life insurance products and
services provider that brings together the
very best of PT Astra International Tbk, a
national champion, and Aviva International
Holdings Limited, a world-class insurance
provider. Operating the partnership as
a 50:50 joint venture, the combined
experience and knowledge of the two
parent companies helps
Astra Life to provide high-quality service
and innovative insurance products, as
well as investment and risk mitigating
protection products to groups and
individual customers. Individually, Astra
and Aviva are industry giants. Astra has
10 million* customers per year and Aviva
has 29 million** customers worldwide.
Compared to the 377 years of operating
experience between PT Astra International
Tbk (58 years*) and Aviva (319 years**),
PT ASTRA AVIVA LIFE is still in its infancy,
having been established in August 2014.
With low market penetration, the insurance
market in Indonesia is still
in a nascent stage of development
compared to neighboring countries such as
Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand.
This offers great opportunity for
Astra Life, a company that intends to
become a top five insurance company.
Given the formation of the joint venture, the
organization must report to PT
Astra International Tbk and Aviva

6. In order to improve the efficiency of
its accounting and reporting systems,
Astra Life upgraded its enterprise
financial management solution to Infor
SunSystems. Infor SunSystems was
the obvious choice: 70% of insurance
companies in Indonesia use it for its
ease of use, cost effectiveness and
responsiveness. Thanks to Infor
SunSystems Query Analysis
(previously known as “Vision”),
Astra Life can now grab data
automatically from its accounting
system and prepare reports quickly.
INNOVATION STRATEGY
Using automation to increase
efficiency and speed
The system has also allowed Astra Life
to conveniently change its parameters to
modify reports so those reports better
suit the end user. Astra Life has also
created templates that have helped it
prepare custom reports to comply with
the reporting requirements of
the Indonesian Financial Services
Authority (OJK).
Infor SunSystems is extremely
valuable to us. Without Infor
SunSystems our month end
and ad hoc reporting would
become very difficult for us.”

7. reduction in the month-end
closing process helped limit
headcount additions to the
finance team
6-day
Throughout its organizational and business
growth, Astra Life did substantial hiring within
many of its departments. This resulted in a
150% increase in headcount across all of its
departments. Due to the time-savings and
efficiencies delivered by Infor Sunsystems,
Astra Life’s finance team can now handle the
workload associated with a larger business
with its existing head count.
Helping its workforce
produce better results
Infor SunSystems has also helped its finance
department become more self-sufficient—
all of the reporting Astra Life must submit
can now be accomplished without requiring
IT support.
7Customer Innovation Study: PT ASTRA AVIVA LIFE
8. Value realized
Infor SunSystems has helped
Astra Life streamline a number of
the processes within its finance and
accounting departments. Thanks to
Infor SunSystems, the overall financial
reporting cycle time has been reduced
to seven days—six days faster than it
was before. This made it significantly
less stressful for the company to meet its
internal reporting deadline on the fifth of
each month and provide reports to the
regulators on the tenth of every month.
As a result of the increase in the speed
of reporting, Astra Life can now deliver
reports on time, and avoid any
fines or penalties incurred for late
submissions and the risk of losing
their insurance license.
Increasing accuracy and
efficiency in accounting for
fixed assets
Before using Infor SunSystems,
Astra Life used to manually calculate the
depreciation of fixed assets, a tedious
process susceptible to human error.
With Infor SunSystems, the details about
fixed assets—including acquisition
costs, useful life assumptions, and
the classification the asset would be
treated—are loaded in the system once.
Meanwhile, completing fixed assets
depreciation is as easy as a click of a
button. Previously, this process took
two full-time employees two days
to complete. Now, the fixed asset
depreciation can be calculated within five
minutes, and with greater accuracy.

9. Now that Astra Life has benefited from Infor
SunSystem’s fixed asset module, the company is
continuing to expand its use of Infor solutions.
Astra Life has recently implemented Infor
SunSystem’s budgeting and planning module, the
accounts payable module, and Infor d/EPM. The
accounts payable module will help Astra Life to
improve its understanding of its relationships with the
various vendors with which it conducts transactions.
The recent implementation of Infor d/EPM will help
Astra Life to provide management with a more
comprehensive and detailed view of its business
intelligence. By integrating Infor’s solution into its
call and claims management system, Astra Life’s
accounting department can provide richer information
to its executives and enable them to drill down into
the details behind revenue, claims, commissions
paid, and operating expenses. All of this information
will help Astra Life to provide timely and relevant
information to its executives, so that they can make
more informed decisions in the rapidly changing
Indonesian insurance market.
Infor d/EPM will connect Infor Sunsystems
to our claim management and actuarial
system to give us a consolidated view of our
business intelligence. It will allow us to drill
down into the specifics behind our revenue,
claims, commissions paid, and operating
expenses numbers.”
