Introduction
The Governments of Indonesia and Australia have entered into the Indonesia-Australia Comprehensive
Economic Partnership Agreement (IA-CEPA), creating a framework to unlock the vast potential of the bilateral
economic relationship. Katalis’ mandate is to maximise the benefits of IA-CEPA, support trade and investment,
improve market access and promote inclusive economic growth in Indonesia.
The Market Integration breakthrough area is responsible for fostering new economic partnerships, business
sector engagement and cooperation on the standards ecosystem to support more integrated markets. This is
driven by industry identifying and investing in opportunities across the targeted sectors of agri-foods,
advanced manufacturing and services.
Sky Credit Pty Ltd is an “digital first” financial services provider offering online direct-to-consumer credit
focused on the near-prime risk segment of the Australian market. They also offer white label embedded
finance solutions to third parties and have a wholly owned subsidiary providing technology and risk services.
The Indonesian motorcycle market is the third largest in the world. Transitioning to electric motorcycles
represents a once-in-a-century structural change in the market, potentially facilitating the entry of Australian
companies to the Indonesian market, including fintech and other financing companies.
Scope of Work
Katalis is seeking a provider to conduct a staged exploration and analysis of the emerging electric two-wheel
mobility market sector in Indonesia and identify opportunities for Sky Credit to engage based on their
technological strengths. The tenderer will be expected to have an excellent understanding of the emerging
electric mobility sector including financing and be able to demonstrate a strong track record of relevant
experience.
The assignment will encompass three distinct stages with a go/no-go decision point at the end of stages one
and two. Respondents should structure their responses so that the methodology (and pricing) allows for
project termination at these points.
• Stage 1 – Market definition. Providers will be expected to investigate the scope of the market and
present their work in a coherent framework. This phase is exploratory, we don’t know what we don’t
know. From our experience, the companies currently engaged in the market are also inexperienced
and a methodology that simply interviews them and asks what they “want” is unlikely to deliver the
required insight. Providers will be expected to bring your experience in other disruptive markets to
bear. This stage will culminate in a facilitated workshop where you present your market definition
framework and pitch the opportunities to Katalis and Sky Credit. Note: The “innovation opportunities”
listed in the table below (row two) are indicative. The provider should not just explore these but use
them as an example of the type of opportunities we expect you to identify. All (or none) may be
relevant.
• Stage 2 – Detailed market analysis. In conjunction with Sky Credit, Katalis will select one or two
opportunities from stage one for more detailed study. This stage will look at the specific market for
the opportunities and characterise its attractiveness for a new market entrant. While this stage will
consider the client’s technology and skills mix in general, it should be conducted with the view that
other companies may also find these opportunities attractive. The final report for this stage should
not contain any client confidential material.
• Stage 3 – Detailed opportunity analysis. This stage will be specific to Sky Credit’s technology,
strengths, and interests. It should be structured as a practical guide to entering the market in
Indonesia. This is a confidential report.

Gender and social inclusion strategy and focus
The electric mobility market in Indonesia is experiencing rapid and far-reaching change. The electrification of
mobility will improve air quality and the adoption of emerging business models allowing greater access to cost
effective transport. These potentially include monthly subscription models for the use/provision of EV
motorcycle services. If successful, this project will improve financial inclusion in Indonesia, providing positive
benefits which include accessibility to financing for families with low-income, women, people with disabilities
and/or other marginalised groups.
Scope of services
Katalis is seeking a provider to conduct a staged exploration and analysis of the emerging electric, two-wheel
mobility market sector in Indonesia and identify opportunities for Sky Credit to engage based on their
technological strengths. The tenderer will be expected to have an excellent understanding of the emerging
electric mobility sector including financing and be able to demonstrate a strong track record of relevant
experience.
The assignment will encompass three distinct stages with a go/no-go decision point at the end of stages one
and two. Respondents should structure their responses so that the methodology (and pricing) allows for
project termination at these points.
• Stage 1 – Market definition. Providers will be expected to investigate the scope of the market and
present their work in a coherent framework. This phase is exploratory, we don’t know what we don’t

and interests. It should be structured as a practical guide to entering the market in Indonesia. This is a

About Katalis
The Governments of Indonesia and Australia have entered into the Indonesia-Australia Comprehensive
Economic Partnership Agreement (IA-CEPA), creating a framework to unlock the vast potential of the bilateral
economic relationship. To support this ambition, the IA-CEPA includes a new program – IA-CEPA ECP Katalis

Through a “Collaborative Hub”, Katalis leverages existing Australian investments in Indonesia by working in
partnership with other DFAT Programs, whole of government partners such as Austrade, and other sectoral
partners, to deliver new activities.
Katalis combines sound trade and development practice by supporting Indonesia to maximise the benefits of
IA-CEPA, addressing regulatory challenges (through technical assistance), while resourcing innovative industry
engagement in sectors of mutual interest; and by investing in standards, skills and business sector development
in new areas, including digital services and advanced manufacturing.
