The mining industry has faced intense challenges and disruptions from global trends. The mining industry needs to perform a transformation to survive. The important thing for mining companies in technological adoption is digital transformation. XYZ is a holding company with many subsidiaries with primary businesses in the coal mining sector spread throughout Indonesia. As part of digital transformation, one of the company's initiatives is to centralize IT resources into one organization, with the objective can share its utilization with all subsidiaries. IT's centralization and shared services caused problems, such as human resources in different company ownership, budget allocation among companies, and the structure of financing and utilization of IT resources for use. The problem was solved by mapping all the components' IT roles at the company based on the framework created by Applegate, Austin, and Soule. Mapping the role of IT in this company can be used as a guideline to make organizational change. Organizational changes that need to be done base on analysis is to change the structure of the organization of IT into a bimodal model, its combination between the Functional-Lean model and Matrix-Agile model. The Functional-Lean model provides organizations as a function to keep lean but can deliver high standard services and keep it stable. The Matrix-Agile model can provide agility for the organization to develop new and run projects. IT Governance at XYZ will use the Federal model.

Kraljic matrix (or Kraljic model) is a method used to segment the purchases or suppliers of a company by dividing them into four quadrants, based on the complexity (or risk) of the supply market (such as monopoly situations, barriers to entry, technological innovation) and the importance of the purchases or suppliers (determined by the impact that they have on the profitability of the company). This quandrant allows the company to define the optimal purchasing strategies for each of the four types of purchases or suppliers. In coal mining company, hundred thousand goods, part number or SKUs are purchased by corporate in fulfilling its mining operations requirement. However, the commodities generally purchased by open pit coal mining company are classified into 6 (six) classes which are fuel, maintenance of mobile equipment, blasting material, tyre, lubricants, and others. With the complexity of dealing with suppliers, it is mandatory for developing purchasing strategies as part of managing of supply chain. Mining operations and profitability of coal mining company shall depend on the total cost of ownership in purchasing the abovementioned commodities. This Kraljic Portfolio Model (1983) will assist coal mining company in applying purchasing strategies based on the class or quadrant which has been developed. Objective of this research is to develop purchasing strategies by empirically quantifying using data from a comprehensive survey among purchasing professionals in coal mining industry. Kraljic Portfolio Matrix is developed with 2 (two) stages of questioner. First questioner is to assess the importance level of each attribute in the dimension of purchasing activity by using Analytical Hierarchy Process. Second questioner is to assess every commodity’s scoring against each supply attribute. Subsequently, the matrix is developed by using SPSS (Statistical Product and Service Solutions) software. This research successfully classifies purchasing commodity in the appropriate quadrant of Kraljic Portfolio Matrix. By classifying the commodities purchased by coal mining company in the right quadrant of Kraljic Portfolio Matrix, the company will be able to implement the right purchasing strategies which will be different in one quadrant and another.

The mining industry plays a significant role in economic growth and development. Coal is a viable renewable energy source with 185.175 billion deposits in Thar, which has not been deeply explored. Although coal is an energy source and contributes to economic development, it puts pressure on environmental sustainability. The current study investigates Sindh Engro coal mining’s impact on environmental sustainability and human needs and interest. The Folchi and Phillips Environmental Sustainability Mathematics models are employed to measure environmental sustainability. The research findings demonstrated that Sindh Engro coal mining is potentially unsustainable for the environment. The toxic gases (methane, carbon dioxide, sulfur, etc.) are released during operational activities. The four significant environment spheres (atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and lithosphere) are negatively influenced by Thar coal mining. The second part of the analysis results shows that human needs and interests have a positive and significant relationship except for human health and safety with Sindh Engro coal mining. Environmental pollution can be controlled by utilizing environmentally friendly coal mining operations and technologies. Plantation and ecological normalization can protect the species, flora, and fauna of the Thar Desert. The government of Pakistan and the provincial government of Sind should strictly check the adaptation of environmental standards. Furthermore, the researchers should explore the environmental issues and solutions so that coal mining becomes a cost-efficient and environmental-friendly energy source in Pakistan.
