Government spending through the LKPP e-Catalog system continues to show a significant growth trend year after year. The value of e-Catalog transactions increased from IDR 83.6 trillion in 2022, to IDR 223.81 trillion in the third quarter of 2024. The Government Goods/Services Procurement Policy Agency (LKPP) also recorded a significant achievement in the implementation of the Electronic Catalog Version 6 (V6), which now contains more than 3.5 million products by the end of 2024. These figures confirm that the digitalization of government procurement of goods and services has become a strategic driver of national economic growth. Not only does digitalization open a broader market, but it also strengthens the domestic supply chain. The Indonesia Catalogue Expo and Forum (ICEF) and the Indonesia Procurement Forum & Expo (IPFE) are collaborating for the first time in a national-scale event to be held from July 30 to August 1st, 2025, at JIExpo Kemayoran, Jakarta.
With the theme "Digitalization of Procurement for a Golden Indonesia: Innovation, Collaboration, and Sustainability," ICEF-IPFE 2025 serves as a strategic platform bringing together business actors, ministries, institutions, and local governments. The goal is to build a procurement ecosystem that is efficient, inclusive, transparent, and oriented toward the use of domestic products. The exhibition features hundreds of leading brands from various industry categories, including information technology and software, vehicles and electric vehicles, videotrons, interactive smartboards, drones, heavy equipment and machinery, furniture and interiors, and healthcare and laboratories. The organizers are targeting attendance of more than 15,000 professional visitors from ministries, institutions, local governments, state-owned enterprises (SOEs), and national businesses.
