InstallShield - How to install redist from setup ini command

I have an installshield project is it possible to install redistributable packages after the main install process ends?

I can't modify the package so I would run the installer from setup.ini

Setup.ini isn't designed to support injecting additional instals. You'd have to write another wrapper install that could chain this install and your other install together.

A solution would be to use a custom action which launches the prerequisites asynchronously and doesn't wait for them to finish.

But if you can't modify the package, the only solution I can think of is a BAT file. This BAT can first execute the package and then the prerequisites.
