Intec signs mediation deal with UK's Your Communications
• Inter-mediatE deal valued at over £0.5 million for unified convergent
mediation platform
January 20 2004: London - Intec Telecom Systems, a global provider of Operations
Support Systems (OSS) for fixed, wireless, and IP/next generation networks,
today announced an Inter-mediatE(TM) software deal with Manchester, UK-based
telecommunications company Your Communications. The contract, valued at over
half a million pounds, enhances Intec's existing agreement with the company.
Under the terms of the new contract Intec will upgrade Your Communications'
mediation platform to create a more powerful multi-service network with the help
of Inter-mediatE's fully convergent mediation technology.
"Intec's mediation solution will provide us with one unified platform, providing
the opportunity for cost of ownership savings while offering unparalleled
innovation and service to our customers," said Gary Clarkson, Operations
Director from Your Communications. "Intec's reputation for cutting edge
technology and superior delivery capability will help guarantee the success of
the project, thereby offering us the possibility of seeking market advantages
from the moment we go live with the Inter-mediatE solution."
Your Communications offers voice, data and mobile services to businesses
throughout the UK, both directly to end-users through its Business
Communications channel and to selected resellers through its Wholesale channel.
It is part of the United Utilities group, a FTSE100 company.
"Intec is very pleased to have secured another business agreement with Your
Communications, one of the leading business to business telecoms companies in
Britain," says Intec's CEO Kevin Adams. "As the company rolls out new products
and services Intec's mediation system will be customised to reflect the changes,
ensuring that Your Communications is able to quickly and accurately charge for
all network traffic."
Intec's Inter-mediatE solution will be used to support Your Communications'
real-time fixed billing and, potentially in the future, wireless and content
billing. Inter-mediatE is considered one of the world's most scalable, flexible
and powerful convergent mediation systems, with proven ability to gather,
process and distribute usage data from any kind or size of network. Its
distributed, component-based architecture will adapt quickly to Your
Communications' business needs, thereby delivering the highest quality of
information to its downstream systems.
