BTS.id

Indonesian companies with decades-old operations, from a vaccine manufacturer to a national bank, appear on the client list of this Jakarta area software house. Its pitch is that it bridges business and technology, and it has been doing so since 2008, when it set out to help bricks-and-mortar companies become modern e-businesses.

Who is behind the name

The company is registered as PT Intersolusi Teknologi Asia and trades as Bridge Technology Services, shortened to BTS.id. It describes itself as an information and communication technology company with a make-it-possible attitude, and as both a software developer and a software publisher. Its stated method is to apply suitable technology so that a new vertical solution can be developed and deployed faster, for businesses in all industries.

What it builds

Web and mobile development covers application design tied to the client's business goals, with work on optimization, process and offline operation as well as integration with other systems. A second line is business intelligence and big data, where the aim is to capture and analyse information, keeping it protected, and produce insight the business can act on. It also offers AI development, which it explains as intelligent software built to solve specific business problems, streamline operations or improve customer experience. Comprehensive managed IT services complete the set, running from networking through to digitalising business processes, and the company offers software outsourcing to clients who want development done for them. It adds that data management can be kept at the local level with strong security, reducing cost and risk while keeping applications available.

Client portfolio

The portfolio on its site names a varied list of organisations: a state-owned vaccine and biological products manufacturer in Bandung, a meat importer and distributor, the largest private bank in Indonesia, a mobile telecoms operator, the Indonesian arm of a Japanese seasoning and food company, a supermarket chain with many branches, an Indian IT services firm, a palm oil and rubber plantation group, and an education start-up that links teachers and parents. The range suggests an enterprise focus, with work in banking, retail, life sciences, agriculture and telecoms.

Reviews and perspective

The company points visitors to third-party review profiles and publishes articles for technology buyers on subjects such as DevOps, code review and quality assurance, which fits its positioning as a professional software house for large organisations.
