Intec wins high-value collaborative sourcing deal in
Indonesia
Multi-million dollar software and services deal signed
with PT Pratama Jaringan Nusantara for Intec product suite
London, May 25, 2004: Intec Telecom Systems today
confirmed that it has signed one of the largest deals in the
Company’s history for the supply of software and associated
services to a customer in the Asia-Pacific region. This
Indonesian government-backed project, which will create the
first and largest Inter-carrier Traffic Clearing System in the
territory, will begin implementation during the latter half of
2004 and will continue into 2005. Intec does not expect that
revenue from the deal will have a material impact on its current
2004 financial performance, but that it will be able to
recognize the majority of the contract value in its 2005
business year. The agreement will last ten years.
“With the complete suite of Intec’s robust technology, the
highest level of its management commitment and its vast regional
knowledge and experiences in interconnect settlement, I am
confident that we can effectively and efficiently deliver our
objectives both to the government and to our customers,” said
Eddie Sudijono, PJN’s President Director. “Seamless integration,
operation audit ability, well-defined business processes and
individualized environment are the main drivers for our success.
Intec plays tremendous roles in all of them.”
“This agreement is certainly the largest deal that Intec has
signed in Asia-Pacific, and one of the largest ever worldwide,”
said Kevin Adams, Intec’s CEO. “It underlines our capability to
provide solutions for the most technically demanding carrier
environments, as well as our global delivery and service
capabilities.”
