The assessment criteria consider the industry sector, business complexity, and the level of regulatory challenges that each company encounters.

65 companies from 17 different industry sectors participated in the competition for four major award categories: Sapphire, Diamond, Gold, and Silver. These awards are presented based on the effectiveness of each company's legal compliance strategies regarding Indonesian regulations.

The assessment for IRCA 2024 is based on reports, narratives, and supporting documentation provided by the companies and their leaders. The evaluation emphasizes three key aspects: implementing strategies to uphold and enhance legal compliance, the effectiveness of organizational management by company leaders in ensuring compliance, and the oversight efforts related to legal adherence.

At IRCA 2024, ANJ was honored with the “Best Enterprise in Regulatory Compliance” award in the Sapphire category. This prestigious recognition highlights ANJ's unwavering commitment and consistency in following all applicable regulations and policies. The Sapphire category represents the highest standard awarded to companies that consistently excel in compliance with relevant laws and regulations. ANJ adheres to these rules and establishes high industry standards, positioning itself as a role model for others to follow.

Additionally, ANJ was honored with the award for “Most Inspiring Leader in Regulatory Compliance in Agriculture,” which was presented to Naga Waskita, the company's Director of Legal and Corporate Secretary.
