Business Wire
Tata Communications, a leading provider of The New World
of Communications, today announces that it has been chosen by
Cargotec, the world’s leading provider of cargo handling solutions
for ships, ports, terminals and local distribution, to deliver Wide
Area Network (WAN) connectivity to over 150 Cargotec sites globally
through Tata Communications’ round-the-world
fibre optic cable network – the world’s only wholly-owned
subsea cable ring.
Cargotec’s operations in over 50 countries across Europe, Asia,
Middle East, Americas and Africa will benefit from increased
capacity, speed, resilience and enhanced communications
capabilities thanks to a fully managed, end-to-end Multiprotocol
Label Switching (MPLS) network. This will enable the company to
improve productivity and operational efficiency worldwide by
streamlining its supply chain.
Cargotec chose Tata Communications for its comprehensive
round-the-world network, which allows Cargotec to go from having
multiple suppliers for its global WAN connectivity to just one. Not
only does this reduce the chances of network failure, but it also
delivers an always-on, cost-effective solution to cater for both
Cargotec’s main offices and smaller sites, regardless of their
location. Cargotec will now be able to offer a uniform service to
its offices across more than 50 emerging and established markets,
further enhancing global operational efficiency. It will also allow
Cargotec to extend its network wherever the business
grows.
Soili Mäkinen, Chief Information Officer, Cargotec, says,
“Cargotec improves the efficiency of cargo flows by offering
handling systems and related services for the loading and unloading
of goods on land, in port and at sea. As a truly global
organisation, we need our network supplier to have the
infrastructure and the resources we need in all markets and
geographies, which is why we chose Tata Communications.”
James Walker, Vice President, Managed Network Services,
Tata Communications, says, “The extent of a company’s global reach
and operational efficiency, especially in emerging markets, is
largely dependent on the connectivity available to them in those
regions. With investments in infrastructure around the globe
bringing us closer than ever to a truly connected world, companies
should expect the same level of service and connectivity the world
over. We look forward to working with Cargotec over the coming
years to unlock further operational efficiencies throughout their
network.”
Tata Communications recently completed the
world’s first wholly-owned round-the-world fibre optic cable
network, bringing increased capacity, resilience and
enhanced communications links to both developed and emerging
markets. Tata Communications owns and operates the world’s largest
subsea cable network, which, in combination with its other
investments and commercial arrangements, has the ability to provide
services to countries representing 99.7 per cent of the world’s
GDP.
