14 DAY TRIAL // Motorola's Networks business announced today that it had been selected for the fifth time in a row for delivering Intelligent Optimization Service (IOS) for Sprint's iDEN network. According to the company, the use of Motorola’s professional services has offered Sprint the possibility to enhance the performance of its iDEN network, and it managed to deliver high-quality services to its subscribers this way, while benefiting for lower costs and capital expenditures.
“Our customers are our top priority and we are constantly striving to improve the end-user experience. By teaming with Motorola over the past four years, we’ve been able to increase the performance and capacity of our iDEN network and deliver the consistently outstanding service that our Nextel customers depend on,” said Danny Bowman, president, Sprint Integrated Solutions Group.
Motorola describes its IOS solution as a comprehensive mix of expert resource, as well as market-leading analytical tools and a optimization methodology that results in efficient and measurable improvements when it comes to network performance. Moreover, the solution uses data-reporting features the network and handsets' usage generate, and is meant to eliminate the need of manual resource intensive drive-testing.
According to the company, the solution combines some of the best features of traditional optimization with state-of-the-art user-generated data analysis, and offers a consistent and cost effective approach to network optimization. Motorola’s IOS solution has already proved that it can deliver network improvements when it comes to coverage and capacity through an enhanced management of interference.
“Motorola has built a strong relationship and a proven track record with Sprint in delivering network optimization services that have a direct impact on the efficiency and performance of Sprint’s iDEN network,” said Bruce Brda, senior vice president, Motorola Networks. “Services are a significant portion of Motorola Networks’ annual sales and are also an important contributor to the success of the operators who contract with us for our services expertise. By working with Motorola to integrate, optimize and manage their networks, operators can deliver reliable and enriched end-user experiences to their customers while effectively managing their bottom lines.”
