AGIT: One-Stop Shop for Digital Transformation
Widi Triwibowo, Director Holding cloud technology as indispensable for digital transformation, several companies are seeking the assistance of cloud providers. However, most companies struggle to take their digital transformation efforts to fruition as their cloud partners only provide them with the necessary technologies for digital transformation but do not guide them through the process. In this scenario, AGIT (PT Astra Graphia Information Technology) —a subsidiary of Astra International, an Indonesian conglomerate with 212 subsidiaries in various industry verticals—is taking a more nuanced approach to providing clients a complete suite of end-to-end cloud services for ICT infrastructure, applications, and digital transformation.
AGIT’s engagement strategy begins with identifying a client’s pain points and defining their digital priorities, after which a digital plan is developed. AGIT then designs a next-generation IT infrastructure that underpins enterprise business applications and services. The company builds a SaaS-enabled digital platform on top of the ICT infrastructure to support big data analytics, IoT, automation, cloud, and security. Having pre-installed business cases, templates, and best practices, the digital platform helps the client to efficiently manage customer engagement, finance, supply chain, logistics and distribution systems, and workforce productivity. Besides helping the client to manage the core business operations, the platform also assists them to analyze their business and identify affordable and efficient cloud models for their future ventures and expansions. “Moreover, AGIT promotes hybrid cloud models to make sure that the process of digital transformation is secure and free from cloud vendor lock-in,” says Widi Triwibowo, Director of AGIT.

Recently, AGIT helped one of its clients, a group of financial services company having a huge customer database, to integrate and monitor the data in their database efficiently. The client faced problems in preventing the applications of blacklisted customers from getting approved. AGIT deployed its data integration solution to integrate every data asset that was present in the client’s database, standardize it, and move the outcome to cloud. The solution also provided a highly secure webpage for credit analysts to identify blacklisted applicants. Using specific algorithms, AGIT allowed analysts to inquire about and prevent blacklisted candidates not only in their own company but also in other companies which are registered with AGIT. Using the solution, the client identified fraudulent customers and saved more than $1 million total loss exposure per month.
