Vietnam’s EV transition is accelerating through nationwide charging rollout and service network expansion. VinFast had deployed over 150,000 charging ports across all 63 provinces by 2024, creating one of Southeast Asia’s largest EV charging footprints. Rapid infrastructure scale demands capable distributors for installation, maintenance, and uptime management across dispersed urban and rural markets.
Nexdigm enables EV OEMs to build distributor capability for charging and service infrastructure through structured partner programs. It standardizes charger deployment readiness, technician certification, and service processes across networks. Nexdigm frameworks help OEMs scale reliable charging ecosystems, reduce downtime risk, and ensure consistent customer experience across Vietnam’s fast-expanding EV infrastructure landscape.
What is Impacted Without Charging and Service Partner Enablement
-
Charger uptime and reliability
Untrained distributors struggle with installation quality, preventive maintenance, and fault diagnostics, leading to frequent charger outages and poor user trust in public charging networks.
-
Deployment speed and coverage
Lack of site readiness and permitting skills delays charger rollout across provinces, slowing infrastructure density growth beyond major cities and limiting EV adoption in secondary markets.
-
Electrical safety and compliance
Improper grounding, load planning, and protection systems increase electrical hazards, regulatory violations, and equipment failures in high-voltage charging installations.
-
Service turnaround time
Distributors without EV charger diagnostics capability depend on OEM central teams, extending repair cycles and increasing station downtime across networks.
-
Asset lifecycle cost
Incorrect installation and maintenance accelerate component wear, raising replacement frequency and total cost of ownership for charging assets.
-
Grid coordination effectiveness
Weak distributor capability in utility coordination causes power availability mismatches, demand spikes, and underutilized charging stations.
-
Customer experience consistency
Inconsistent charger functionality, payment integration issues, and service delays reduce driver confidence and repeat charging usage.
-
Data and network visibility
Distributors lacking digital monitoring skills fail to provide real-time charger performance data, limiting OEM ability to optimize network operations.
-
Brand perception in early EV markets
Charging unreliability directly affects OEM reputation in markets where infrastructure confidence determines EV purchase decisions.

Nexdigm Case
A global EV OEM entering Vietnam partnered with Nexdigm to enable distributors for charging and service infrastructure across secondary cities. Nexdigm assessed 60 distributors and found only 42% charger installation readiness and average repair response of 48 hours. Through Nexdigm technician certification, site readiness toolkits, and digital monitoring rollout, distributor capability rose to 86%. Charger uptime improved from 92% to 98%, and average repair response fell to 18 hours within nine months.
