Tata Communications and Indosat have partnered to deliver a wide range of technology and communication solutions for Indonesian enterprises’ growing ICT requirements.

This partnership combines Indosat’s extensive regional coverage and expertise with Tata Communications’ global connectivity and managed service capabilities to design a comprehensive portfolio of services for the Indonesian market.

Indosat and Tata Communications are coming together to offer enterprises in Indonesia a wide-ranging set of services including Global Network, Value Added Services, Unified Communications and Security services, as well as several industry-specific solutions. This collaboration with Tata Communications is set to create additional choices for enterprises in the region while affording Indosat the convenience of working with a single global entity that provides end-to-end solutions across segments, thereby reducing cost and complexity when building its enterprise portfolio in this region.

Alexander Rusli, President Director and CEO, Indosat, says, "The development means enterprises will have access to tried and tested solutions that can be tailored to create local variations that ensure high performance, quick delivery and the highest level of customer support.”

According to reports, by 2018, the total Enterprise IT spending in the Indonesian market is expected to reach US$14.09 billion, out of which telecom services will account for US$4.96 billion and data centre services will account for US$750 million.
