HISTORY
2000: BSG Established. Provide SAP as 'ASP', first in Korea
We were established under the name “Bridge Solution Group”.
Established as an Application Service Provider under the slogan “Just make IT simple!”, BSG’s business objective was to launch ASP services, which was just about to break through as a hot trend at the time. BSG soon became the first provider in Korea to offer SAP solutions as an ASP service, a critical experience that helped transplant the Cloud into the organization’s DNA, setting up a firm foundation for the development and launch of Cloud services today.
~ 2005: Best SAP Consulting Provider Serving the SME Market
With the launch of SAP All-in-One Solution, BSG was recognized as the best performing partner in the local industry in terms of its service track record and level of quality. BSG soon conquered the mid-sized SME market, winning numerous awards from SAP as the best SAP Partner in the Asia Pacific region.
These credentials later served as the basis for BSG’s market leadership in next-generation SAP platforms such as NetWeaver as well as in post-ERP consulting services. Enjoying a period of significant growth, BSG’s outsourcing(operation services) business began expanding as well following growth in the company's newly-launched consulting service practice, setting the stage for BSG’s transition into a top player in IT outsourcing services.
~ 2009: Biggest SAP Operations Service Provider in Korea
The combined revenue of clients using outsourcing services from BSG grew from seven trillion Won in 2009 to around 37 trillion Won as of 2013, with individual users using information systems run by BSG numbering in the thousands as of 2014. BSG is a specialized operations service provider, quietly serving out a role usually played by the IT subsidiary within a group for client companies that do not have their own in-house IT function.
Already the best powerhouse in the market in both name and in substance, BSG continues to build up capabilities to go beyond simple operations to become a partner of choice for strategic information planning and business collaboration.
~ 2014: Ramping Up Global Services and Sector-Specific Capabilities
With more local businesses increasingly going global, BSG’s line-up of services has also become more globalized. Looking to strengthen services for its overseas clients, BSG has established several overseas subsidiaries and entered business partnerships with robust service providers with global service networks, all the while continuing to build up its own capabilities to maintain and upgrade service quality. Moreover, in line with its Best-of-Breed business strategy, BSG has been acquiring companies with top-notch execution capabilities in respective areas to innovate customer service quality and diversify the range of service options clients can choose from.
