State owned enterprises (SOEs), or BUMN (Badan Usaha Milik Negara) in Indonesia, are just like any other enterprises, they sell products/services, need to gain customers, and make profit.
One of the things that differentiates them from regular enterprises is that SOEs are either fully or partially owned by the government.
Then, where does a software development company come into this?
How can they collaborate?
a. Official Website/Apps Development
State owned enterprises (SOEs) play an important role for the nation and industry they’re in. Media & telecommunication, healthcare, energy & gas, and financial industries are just a few important industries that people need and use most of the time.
When customers use your websites/apps every day, you don’t want to disappoint them whether you’re small businesses or SOEs, considering one important goal of any business is to give customer satisfaction.
In this case, having a proper official website/app is one of the ways to give it to them.
A software development company can help SOEs in healthcare, media & telecommunication, tourism, manufacturing, financial, and many other industries to develop new software or upgrade existing software with ease and the help of experts.
b. Internal Website or Apps
Work inside these enterprises varies from industry to industry, except one thing for certain is that their work uses computers and the internet in one way or the other.
Whether it is a software just for data input and output, employee management, or any other work related thing. The problem is that company’s internal websites/apps tend to be outdated and not meet today’s standards.
Creating or upgrading internal websites or apps with technology such as React, NodeJS, Kotlin, and other modern technologies can potentially make the work faster, effective, and secure.
If you’re in a situation like these where there’s a chance or a need to upgrade your internal work system through proper software, don’t hesitate to contact us!
c. Custom Project Development
One of the main reasons why most state owned enterprises are willing to work with a software development company.
More often than not these enterprises just don’t have the right resources to build websites/apps for their project, resources such as team like this:
- Project Manager
- Senior Frontend Developer
- Senior Backend Developer
- UI/UX Designer
- Quality Assurance
Yes, a software development company has the resources, but what if SOEs want to temporarily hire them from the software development company?
It’s a great idea for your SOEs project if you already have part of the team such as frontend & backend developer, but don’t have a project manager and UI/UX designer.
This method is called Extended Team or Team Extension, which is one of two methods you can collaborate with us.
Conclusion
Just like we said in the beginning, SOEs are like any other enterprises: they sell products/services, need to gain customers, and make profit.
But more importantly for those three things to happen they need proper softwares, a website or apps to showcase the work, an internal software to support the work, and many more other software types your business needs which we are eager to build!
Smooets have worked with several state owned enterprises (BUMN) and regional owned enterprises (BUMD) in Indonesia, it was an exciting challenge that definitely gave us a lot of new experience.
