• The seven Indonesia winners will represent their country at the regional finals

IDC announced the Indonesia winners of the second IDC Digital Transformation Awards (DXa) at the Indonesia Digital Summit 2018.

Directorate General of Taxation (pic, above) was named 2018 “Digital Transformer of the Year” with OVO, DBS Bank Indonesia, FinAccel, Tokopedia and Bank Rakyat Indonesia also recognised as the winners for Digital Disruptor, Omni-experience Innovator, Information Visionary, Talent Accelerator and Operating Model Master respectively. Unika Atma Jaya’s Danny Natalies was named DX Leader of 2018 for Indonesia.

IDC DXa honors the achievements of organisations that have successfully planned and executed transformation across one or multiple areas of their business through the application of digital and disruptive technologies.

All the seven Indonesia winners will represent the country to go head-to-head with winners from other Asia Pacific countries at the regional finals in Singapore on Oct 25. These winners have distinguished themselves in terms of business transformation initiatives across one or more of the five DX masteries to transform and disrupt the market in Indonesia.  

“We see more local enterprises are aggressively embarking into DX especially this year. The aggressiveness and active participation of Indonesian enterprises on deploying DX are expected to be contributing to the growth of the country’s digital economy. The local government recently announced their vision to enable digital economy by making Industrial Revolution 4.0 as the key development focus for the country.

“As the Indonesian government aims at transforming the industrial landscape through technology, we believe that this is the right time to recognize the best DX projects in Indonesia for 2018,” said Sudev Bangah, managing director, IDC Asean.

Digital transformation (DX) is necessary for organisations to compete and adapt with the changes of business landscape in Indonesia – especially with the rapid change of customer behaviors and innovations that are disrupting the business models in the market.

IDC’s recent survey revealed that there are more than 80% of enterprises that believe DX brings benefits to the organisations. While operating model, leadership and omni- experience are determined to be the immediate focus for DX, DX initiatives to drive information and work source transformation are growing to be one of the priorities now.

Organisations in Indonesia are becoming aware of the benefits of using digital technologies and developing digital capabilities to fast track business growth and identify new opportunities to gain competitive market advantage.

The local winners have clearly shown their capabilities to lead, thrive and develop into a digital-native enterprise in Indonesia,” said Mevira Munindra, Head of Operations, IDC Indonesia.

IDC looks at two broad categories of DX requirements to determine the winners for IDC DX Awards. First is value extraction from current business/work processes. Second is on new revenue generation from innovative/disruptive business models.

The former tends to focus on cost optimisation, automation and talent management while the latter focuses on growth in new markets.

The IDC DX awards process follows a two-phased approach for determining country and regional winners with each nomination going through an initial assessment carried out by IDC country and regional analysts. A second phase assessment is done to review the nomination and the country/industry landscape.

All winners which are finalised at the country level will automatically be placed in the regional final. The regional winners are determined by a regional panel of judges comprised of IDC worldwide analysts, industry thought leaders, and academia.

Overall, the regional DX projects will be judged based on their submitted project nomination form and judges scoring carried over from the country event.  

Winners from all around Asia Pacific will join the Singapore winners at IDC's DX Summit and Digital Transformation Awards (DXa) Gala Night, where the regional winners will be announced for the categories of Digital Transformer of the Year; Digital Disruptor of the Year; DX Leader, Omni-experience Innovator, Talent Accelerator, Information Visionary, and Operating Model Master.
