IT Outsourcing for Indonesian Banks
OJK and BI compliant managed IT services for retail banks, BPRs, and digital banks. Core banking ops, 24/7 SOC, application management, and infrastructure support — under ISO 27001:2013 controls.
IT outsourcing for an Indonesian bank is not the same as IT outsourcing for any other industry. Vendor risk management under OJK regulation, data residency, audit trail integrity, and 24/7 incident response are non-negotiable. IDE Asia (PT Solusi Inovasi Bangsa) is ISO 27001:2013 certified and has delivered IT outsourcing to Indonesian banking institutions including Bank Jakarta, Bank Rakyat Indonesia (BRI), and UOB. Our outsourcing model typically delivers 30% cost reduction versus in-house operations while raising service quality through 99.5% uptime SLAs.
