Coal companies in Indonesia compete with each other to gain limited market share and meet growing demand. PT. Bukit Asam Tbk is the only coal producing company which is a state-owned company (BUMN) among nine others that private company. PT. Bukit Asam Tbk has met quality standards by being ISO (International Standardization of Organization) certified and has several sales achievements and is among the best new stone producing companies in Indonesia. Obtaining several company awards and certifications is expected to improve the company's brand image and increase customer satisfaction as a trusted coal company. The quality of customer service can also influence a company's image and lead to customer satisfaction.

The analysis model in data processing uses SEM Lisrel 8.8. The findings reveal that Service quality and brand image have a positive and significant influence on customer satisfaction.
