Leading European telecoms network operator extends Ubisense contract with significant new €1m order
Cambridge, UK - Ubisense Group Plc ("Ubisense" or the "Company") (LSE:UBI), a market leader in location based smart technology, is pleased to announce the extension of a significant Geospatial contract with a large European telecommunications network operator.
The 12 month contract renewal is valued at approximately €1m, higher than the previous contract and involves Ubisense continuing to provide planning extensions solutions for the operator's fibre to the home (FTTH) network across Europe.
Ubisense's telecoms solutions, when delivered with the expertise of the Ubisense team, greatly reduce the time and effort associated with traditional fibre planning approaches, helping to speed up network deployment and optimising capital investment. This is particularly important in the current telecommunications marketplace as operators face increased pressure to respond to growing bandwidth demands by adding optical fibre infrastructure to their networks, either directly to customer dwellings or to nearby distribution points.
Richard Green, Ubisense Chief Executive Officer, said he was delighted to continue to provide this leading European network operator with Ubisense's unique solutions.
"This contract extension is an important win for our Geospatial business and highlights the positive sales momentum in the division. Ubisense has a long history of deploying ground-breaking Geospatial solutions and this contract extension from one of the largest network operators in Europe is a huge vote of confidence in our services and the Ubisense team."
