Once complete, the advanced IP telephony solution, with over 3000 subscribers, would bring about significant total cost of ownership (TCO) reductions for the new facility and enable Emirates to have mission-critical voice communications solution while improving efficiency and flexibility.
"This contract represents a strong endorsement of Al-Futtaim Technologies' capabilities and solutions," said Venkat Raghavan, Divisional Manager, Al-Futtaim Technologies. "Total cost of ownership and a sound return on investment are driving customer decisions to implement the latest converged technologies. We see an increasing number of customers approaching Al-Futtaim Technologies to assist them with implementing the most modern IP telephony and converged network solutions."
"Al-Futtaim Technologies' technical excellence and commitment convinced us they were the right choice for the project, and we are delighted to have them as our partner," noted Tom Burgess, Emirates' Vice President Technology Services. "We selected the Alcatel-Lucent solution due to its flexibility and reliability. The new solutions will improve employee productivity by delivering advanced communication services while minimizing downtime."
Al-Futtaim Technologies commenced the project in May this year.
