HYDERABAD: Infotech Enterprises today announced today that it has been awarded a major GIS contract by KPN, a telecom services provider.
Valued at several million euros and with a tight schedule of 18 months, it represents one of the largest, single-vendor GIS contracts awarded by the global telecom industry to an offshore services company in recent years.
Infotech had previously cooperated successfully with KPN and one of its earlier projects and received KPN's 'best project' award for excellence in quality, cost effectiveness and on-time delivery.
Infotech will provide a range of data management services for KPN's existing Access Network. An offshore production team of around 300 data specialists based in India will perform conversion services remotely to digitize the existing plans of KPN's telecom network.
The digitization of the network plans is in keeping with KPN's web-enabled operating methods, which yield a more rapid, and higher quality service. Infotech will utilize a secure, online delivery model implemented successfully on previous engagements to ensure the project is delivered to KPN's quality, schedule and budget expectations.
