Appear, Telent Partner
BIRMINGHAM — Appear, the leading provider of
context-aware mobile software, continues its European expansion with the
announcement of a strategic partnership with telent, a leader in the
provision of ICT services to the UK Transport and Public sectors.
Through the partnership, telent will promote, resell and integrate
Appear’s enterprise mobility platform for its customers. telent will
also offer consulting services for Appear customers in the UK. To
kick-start their collaboration, telent and Appear are exhibiting
together at the upcoming “Transportation Innovation” event at the NEC
Birmingham, on October 10-11 (http://www.transportinnovations.com/).
“When equipping a mobile workforce with PDAs, smartphones and other
wireless devices, it is critical to understand how employees will use
these devices, and what it will cost to deploy and maintain a mobility
solution,” says Peter Felton, Business Development Director for the rail
division of telent. “It makes no sense to simply transfer desktop
applications to wireless devices. Increasingly, organisations want to
package and deliver applications and information based on the user’s
situation at the time a request enters the system. This translates into
increased employee productivity, the development of new services, and an
improved return on the organisation’s mobile solution.”
“We are extremely pleased to partner with transportation industry
experts such as telent. This partnership confirms the interest from UK
transport companies to adopt intelligent, innovative and future-proof
mobile solutions and allows us to bring our experiences of complex
context-aware wireless projects to the UK market,” said Xavier Aubry,
Chief Executive Officer for Appear.
