Bromide Technologies completes initial Virgin Mobile roll-out
The contract to supply the communication infrastructure and network solution, which now makes it possible for a new customer to walk into a Virgin Mobile outlet, and then walk out with an activated phone/SIM card in minutes, was awarded to the Bromide Technologies Group.
According to the Midrand-based company, its experience in similar projects, combined with a solution that cost-effectively encompasses the entire ICT spectrum, secured it the project. Its streamlined business model also meant that Bromide Technologies could mobilise very quickly in the face of a tight project schedule, the company adds.
“High availability, the reliability of redundancy measures and cost-effective operation were the primary objectives that our proposed wide area network and connections had to achieve,” reports Bromide Technologies sales and marketing director, Louis Steyn.
“It is, of course, critical for the Virgin Mobile call centre to always be operational and accessible by customers, thus the solution has to be 100% reliable. Our proposal involved Cisco network management and networking equipment, a Microsoft Exchange solution and Active Directory roll-out and the deployment of Citrix Remote Access enabling remote clients.”
Following the successful completion of the initial infrastructure implementation, Bromide Technologies was tasked with various other initiatives not covered by the original project.
