Copenhagen, Denmark - Telenor and Telia have signed a managed services contract
with Nokia that will see the company manage their joint mobile radio network in
Denmark. The agreement will allow Telia and Telenor to offer customers of
Denmark's largest mobile network even better coverage and greater capacity for a
world-class mobile experience.
Nokia will take over all operational and development tasks of Telia and
Telenor's radio access network in October 2017, and provide network planning and
optimization, network implementation, and network operations for the network
that consists of more than 4,000 mobile sites around the country. This will
expand network capacity, ensure a quality boost in the customer experience and
pave the way for the introduction of new technologies.
Henrik Kofod, CTO, Telia Denmark said: "The combination of Telia and Telenor's
network has been a historic business. Today we have a world-class mobile
network, and this step to have Nokia manage it for us will ensure we also have
the best network in five or ten years. Therefore, I am pleased that we have
concluded a solid agreement with one of the world's most powerful network
providers."
Peter Nødbak, network director, Telenor Denmark, said: "We have reached a point
where we need to take the TT network to a new level, and Nokia will help us do
that. They have the necessary expertise, capacity and know-how in the area that
will ensure the most optimal operation and making our network ready for the
future."
Igor Leprince, president of Global Services, Nokia, said: "Telia and Telenor are
focused on exceeding the requirements of their customers. In selecting their new
managed services provider, the operators highlighted the need for experience,
quality, capacity and, not least, security. Nokia will provide the two operators
services that will allow them to deliver the best experience to their
customers."
The contract win underlines Nokia's strength in services, a strategic
differentiator for the company that helps customers navigate through complexity
and transform their business, for example via analytics, automation and
leveraging Nokia's global delivery excellence.
