Why choose TNT Indonesia?

Competition in the Indonesian courier service has been very tight during the past several years as the result of the sharp increase in the number of new players in the express delivery business.

The tight competition will certainly benefit customers. With the presence of many courier service providers, customers will certainly have more options to handle the shipment of either their documents, packages or cargoes.

However, choosing the best courier service for your business is not as easy as you might think. Generally, all companies offer the same obligations to their clients -- on-time delivery, shipment reliability and competitive rates. Unfortunately, not all of them could fulfill the obligations.

PT TNT Indonesia is among the few courier companies that could fulfill every need of its customers. In fact, the company has become one of the most preferred courier service providers for its ability to meet its customers' ever changing needs.

PT Siemen Indonesia, for instance, says that it has been using PT TNT Indonesia's service because of its ability to guarantee speedy and reliabile services.

"TNT does not only guarantee on-time delivery, but also the security of the documents sent through the company," says Audy Kaunang, Corporate Logistics Manager of PT Siemen Indonesia, one of TNT Indonesia's loyal customers.

In addition, TNT also provides a logistic supply chain management solution which is quite important in the distribution of Siemens' equipment in Indonesia, Audy says.

PT Siemen Indonesia delivers products, solutions and services for information and communications, power, automation and control, healthcare, transportation, and lighting.

Apart from daily shipment service, Siemens also uses TNT express delivery service with extremely urgent deadlines. "Once our company had to immediately replace damaged power equipment at a power station located in a remote site in Jayapura, West Papua.

"And thanks to TNT, with its on-time delivery, the urgently needed equipment could reach the site within our deadline," he said.

"Anytime we want, we can get information on the whereabouts of our items, thanks to TNT's tracking system. In this way, we feel secure," he added.

According to Audy, more companies need integrated solutions for logistics and supply chain management services and, "TNT has the experience and resources to meet all logistic challenges," he said.
