Activities include research, investigations, company incorporation services, immigration and licensing services, and the provision of a variety of management services. OA's specialty is establishing and operating Indonesian companies for foreign investors who wish to do business in Indonesia, and providing sound information upon which good investment decisions can be made. Since 1997, OA has established over 300 PMA companies (Foreign Direct Investment companies), more than any other firm in Indonesia.

OA has four divisions: Company Establishment; Immigration and Licensing; Management Support; and Research and Seminars.

The key to success in Indonesia is recognizing and adapting to very different sets of business, social and cultural rules. Culture, politics and religion can frequently impact upon daily business activity, and foreign business owners require an awareness of these factors, as well as skilled advisors to guide them.

OA has developed specialist skills in working and dealing with the formidable and often obstructive Indonesian bureaucracy, especially in the areas of foreign investment, immigration, manpower, trade, industry and taxation.

OA's inroads and channels into the Indonesian government and bureaucracy gives relatively fast access to a large range of privileged information not otherwise available to outsiders. OA's significant grassroots research capability is directly due to its continuous, everyday exposure and dealings with the difficult Indonesian environment, especially in regard to obtaining accurate information.

OA's specialist knowledge and experience enables it to cut paths through the formidable Indonesian bureaucratic, legal and cultural mazes, thereby ensuring successful business outcomes.

OA currently employs graduates in the fields of sociology, law, economics, politics, psychology, management and linguistics. OA's approach is by necessity multi-disciplinary.

OA is a professional fee-for-service agency and does not undertake work on commission basis.
