AIRCOM and Siradel sign new agreement
After 10 years of cooperation, AIRCOM and Siradel reach new agreement
London, UK and Rennes, France – 16th June 2009 – Leading independent network planning and optimisation consultancy, AIRCOM International has today announced a new partnership agreement with Siradel, a leading provider of sophisticated propagation models for radio planning. Siradel’s Volcano suite is integrated with AIRCOM’s ASSET, part of the ENTEPRISE suite of tools and the industry’s most widely used radio planning tool. Over an extended period of cooperation, the companies have developed a similar client base and intend to use this renewed commitment to continue to deliver ever improving services to these customers.
Part of this agreement will ensure that while individual technical support is offered by both companies, for common incidents a joint response will be undertaken, ensuring that technical issues are resolved faster and more effectively than individual approaches may yield. “I am pleased to continue our good relationship and provide Volcano in AIRCOM’s network planning and optimisation solutions. Advanced propagation models like Volcano are increasingly requested to improve the quality of coverage together with map data for both new and existing wireless networks. This new agreement will benefit the customers with whom our Volcano support team will be in direct contact while ensuring our fluent communication with the AIRCOM support team.” said Laurent Bouillot, President & CEO of Siradel.
Ricky Watts, AIRCOM’s director of strategy and innovation, said: “As disparate tools and services evolve within a network, operators care less about individual suppliers and more about who can offer the fastest pain relief to any issues they encounter. The best radio planning tool, coupled with some of the best propagation models in the world help operators to be right first time and remain safe in the knowledge that reinforced back up is there, should they need to call on it. “
