AdEPT Telecom PLC
("AdEPT Telecom" or the "Company")
Award of Contract
AdEPT Telecom is pleased to announce it has been awarded a 3 year Voice over IP ("VoIP") migration contract with an existing customer worth an estimated revenue of £2.5 million over the life of the contract with one of the UK's largest wholesalers. The contract covers 395 sites across 5 subsidiaries.
Ian Fishwick, Chief Executive said, "This is one of the largest VoIP contracts placed so far in the UK, and comes only a few weeks since we won one of the UK's largest ever Session Initiation Protocol ("SIP") contracts to migrate the traditional telephone services on to a flexible and scalable internet based telephony solution.
An initial pilot covering 90 sites is anticipated to be followed by a phased roll-out of the other 300 sites. Our ability to provide SIP (with and without gateways) and Hosted, on a single network powered by BT, managed by a single web portal, was critical to our success. It is clear that large customers will never simply move all of their sites to VoIP in one day. They will conduct trials and pilots and then gradually roll-out the new technology. This means that companies such as AdEPT who can provide both traditional calls and line rental and VoIP are ideally placed to handle a migration of this magnitude."
