“WE VENTURED INTO INDONESIA WITH A MISSION TO SUPPORT THE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION OF INDONESIA ”

AVNISH PATANKAR COMMERCIAL DIRECTOR , BDx
“ I believe some relaxation is coming , but the demand is still high . Manufacturers are not able to deliver the equipment on time because logistics are still an issue ,” says Patankar .
“ Instead of sticking to one supplier for one improvement , we diversified geographically . Different leading brands came together . We worked with different suppliers and reduced our reliance on a single one , but also in terms of geographical resources , equipment from Europe , as well as resources from the US and equipment from Australia , China , South Korea .”
Before BDx Indonesia could diversify its operations , the initial challenge was understanding the different specifications of various suppliers to determine the services that it could provide with each . Unlike the standard procurement method whereby the solution must be correct , the company adapted its approach to recognise that various models could achieve the same outcomes with a more flexible outlook .
