THUS to provide secure, managed next-generation network for SiBCAS
Telematics company THUS has today announced that it has signed a contract with SiBCAS, a leading supplier of relocatable modular accommodation. THUS will provide a fully managed Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) network and link SiBCAS’s four existing sites and provide a scaleable platform on which to base a unified communication network when the company opens its new Headquarters in 2009.
SiBCAS is one of the UK’s largest and most established providers of relocatable accommodation working across a variety of sectors, including, health, education, construction and exhibitions, to provide permanent and flexible space uniquely tailored to the needs of their individual clients. The next-generation network (NGN) solution from THUS has been tailored to meet the particular and growing needs of SiBCAS.
The managed MPLS Internet Protocol Virtual Private Network (IP VPN) will initially deliver the capability to run high end computer aided design and manufacturing applications alongside internet access with the plan to migrate onto a fully converged network for voice, data and bespoke applications. This network will link the regional offices with the new Headquarters making it easier to manage the company’s ICT infrastructure.
Billy Lightbody, Operations Director at SiBCAS said, “We offer our clients flexible space that works for them and what we needed was a flexible and scaleable communication network that works for us, now and can grow with us in the future. We chose to work with THUS as they were proactive in assessing our business requirements and took the time to listen to what we needed and wanted to do, designing a communication network that fully reflected our wishes.”
In addition to the day to day management of the network and providing a single point of contact for all faults, billings and enquiries, THUS will also play a proactive role in advising SiBCAS on network development and the utilisation of new technology.
