Medan, Thursday, 30 June 2022 -- PT Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero), Tbk. or BNI (stock code: BBNI) continues to strengthen business solutions in accepting bill payments, especially in the port services segment. This is an effort by BNI to be able to answer the potential growth in the performance of the port segment which is classified as getting stronger this year.
Most recently, BNI collaborated with PT Sub Pelindo Multi Terminal (Persero) or SPMT to increase cooperation in the field of Integrated cash management, both through company expense management services and revenues from service users for port service bills payment with a host to host system.
This collaboration was marked by the signing of a Cooperation Agreement on Integrated Cash Management between the Leader of BNI Region 01 representing BNI Wholesale Solutions Division, Tedi M Isman, and SPMT Finance Director Yon Irawan.
The signing procession of this collaboration was also witnessed by BNI Digital business SEVP Rian Kaslan and SPMT Operations Director Ridwan Sani Siregar at SPMT Headquarters, Medan (29/06/2022).
Yon Irawan hopes that port services payment is as easy as e-commerce transactions, easy, fast and safe and provides the best service for service users.
"We appreciate BNI for being proactive with SPMT in building business solutions in receiving bill payments in port services," he said.
Yon explained that since the merger of Pelindo (Persero) on 1 October 2021, there have been 4 business units, one of which is SPMT based in Medan.
In terms of multi-terminal business, SPMT covers port business with specialists in the field of multipurpose terminal operations in Indonesia, such as liquid bulk terminals, dry bulk, general cargo, and so on.
On the same occasion, BNI Digital Business SEVP Rian Kaslan said that with the implementation of Integrated Cash Management, all of the Company's expenditure and revenue solutions can be carried out in an integrated manner.
SPMT can also adapt all services to needs such as potential services for IFT, eBG, Ecollection, Direct dealing, H2H ERP, SCF, Notional Pooling and Report Management which will certainly increase effectiveness and efficiency in terms of reporting, transaction monitoring and reconciliation.
"We are also grateful for SPMT's trust in BNI and will synergize with SPMT to provide the best service for both SPMT and service users," he said.
So far, Rian said BNI has succeeded in implementing BNIDirect services by actively using e-tax transactions, billing payments, payroll and transfers (inhouse and domestic) and has integrated H2H on Billing Payment and autocollection collection services for ports in Belawan and Dumai.
"Of course we hope that this collaboration can increase and create added value and benefits in financial management at SPMT," he concluded.
