A drawing of the footprint. Two boxes stand side by side, a wide one marked MALAYSIA, THREE SITES and a narrow one marked DR CONGO, ONE SITE. Inside each box a steel rail carries amber marks: three on the Malaysian rail, numbered 02 IOI Edible Oils at Sandakan in Sabah, 03 Sime Darby at Kempas Palm Oil Mill and 04 Minsawi at Kuala Kangsar in Perak; one on the Congo rail, numbered 05, Plantations et Huileries du Congo at Yaligimba. An amber bracket beneath the Malaysian box spans all three of its marks and is labelled 01, MSPO Trace, Malaysia’s national certification platform.

Nursery to refinery, in two countries. The bracket is the national platform; the marks are the sites. Each is set out in full below.

01

Malaysia’s national certification platform

The council launched MSPO Trace on 18 November 2019: Certification Modules to hold the record, a Traceability Module to follow certified material. On 6 October 2020 its chief executive wrote to thank AIREI for completing it. Read the letter · what it means for a buyer

02

IOI Edible Oils — Kernel Crushing Plant, Sandakan, Sabah

A tailored MyPalm build for the kernel crushing plant. On 18 June 2021 the general manager, Ir. Shyam Lakshmanan, wrote of “the encouraging development of the tailor made MyPalm” and the next demonstration. He also speaks on camera in AIREI’s film. Read the letter · hear him say it

03

Sime Darby Plantation — Kempas Palm Oil Mill

A three-month proof of concept of the MyPalm Maintenance and Production Modules, 1 October to 31 December 2021. The mill manager and the group digital analyst both signed the closing letter. “MyPalm is proven in improving staff productivity and simplifying tedious work procedures without interfering with the current practices in the mill.” Read the letter · what the modules did

04

Minsawi Industries — Kuala Kangsar, Perak

A 41-year-old mill instrumented at eight stations and run as an AI Smart Mill — retrofitted from August 2024, opened 19 November 2024 by the Minister of Plantation and Commodities. The one engagement with operating figures in print, carried by two publications. The full case · the press record

05

Plantations et Huileries du Congo — Yaligimba

MyPalm taken to site and taught to the people who run it, replacing a manual system. Levi Lutete, area general manager at Yaligimba, says so on camera in AIREI’s film. “A good system which will allow us to control our data well and record our data reliably.” Hear him say it

The largest of them

The council that certifies
Malaysian palm oil asked
AIREI to build its system.

If your crop is MSPO-certified, the platform holding that certificate is MSPO Trace.

Chew Jit Seng, Chief Executive Officer, Malaysia Palm Oil Certification Council — 6 October 2020

“MPOCC would like to thank you and your team for the successful completion of the MSPO Trace IT Platform.”

Two modules came out of it. The Certification Modules hold the database behind the scheme. The Traceability Module manages certified material — the same job, at national scale, that the traceability product does for one mill.

What a mill owner gets out of that

If your crop carries an MSPO certificate, the platform behind it is one this team was asked to build, and finished. When traceability arrives at your gate, that is who answers the phone.

Row 04 // the one in print

A 41-year-old mill,
and what came out of it.

Minsawi Industries at Kuala Kangsar runs eight instrumented stations. Two of its operating figures are in print, with the column that carried them named beside each.

An oblique aerial view over a palm oil mill’s receiving yard. In the foreground a wide concrete bay is heaped with fresh fruit bunches, their loose orange fruitlets scattered across the apron; a long steel-railed walkway runs away to the right beside a covered conveyor. A blue steel gantry straddles the bay at the centre, and to the left a stepped loading ramp of green-painted steel bays holds more bunches under a corrugated canopy. Behind them a long inclined covered conveyor climbs into the mill building, with tall silos, corrugated sheds and a thin white plume beyond. A small cream guardhouse with a dark pitched roof and a signboard stands at the centre right, a long shed with roller shutters and posted notices beside it, and a blue lorry with a silver tanker trailer is parked on the road at the top left.
