Intec signs 2 million Euro mediation deal
in Romania
April 26, 2004, London/Bucharest: Intec Telecom Systems has
a won a two million euro contract to supply Romania's national
fixed line provider ROMTELECOM with Inter-mediatE(tm), the
market leading, high-performance, fully convergent mediation
solution. Under the terms of the agreement ROMTELECOM will
implement Inter-mediatE to centrally manage its service
offerings quickly and efficiently, taking advantage of the
application's powerful, distributed architecture to gather and
process network call data information for use in billing and
other downstream systems. ROMTELECOM's selection of Intec as its
mediation provider was based on the quality of Intec's
comprehensive solution in addition to its strong local service
and support capabilities, extensive experience in mission
critical OSS and recognised expertise in designing and
implementing mediation systems.
The contract win underlines Intec's ongoing business expansion
into emerging European markets. The Polish, Hungarian and
Latvian PTTs are already existing users of Intec's solutions, in
addition to a growing number of mobile carriers including
Eurotel in the Czech Republic and VimpelCom in Russia.
ROMTELECOM is the leading fixed line national operator in
Romania, supporting in excess of 4 million subscribers across
the country with the help of over 30,000 km of fibre-optic
cable. The company is expected to increase its subscriber figure
by 25% by the end of next year. The company offers a host of
fixed line services to residential and business customers,
including basic telephony, ISDN, Internet and data services.
In January 2003, Hellenic Telecommunications Organization OTE
became majority shareholder of ROMTELECOM, owning 54.01% of the
stock. The Romanian State owns the remaining 44.99%.
