LogicaCMG joins Bridge Mobile Alliance as technology partner

9:44 pm   -   December 19th, 2005

LogicaCMG today announces that it has formally joined Bridge Mobile Alliance as one of its technology associate members under the alliance’s associate membership scheme. The scheme was initiated by Bridge Mobile to act as an extension of the alliance membership structure to include major global players with technology leadership across the mobile industry value chain, such as handsets, network and platform solutions, and SIM card technologies. The purpose is to promote knowledge exchange and joint collaboration between mobile operators and technology solutions providers across the mobile service development value chain - so as to develop next-generation mobile technologies that are customised for the Asia Pacific mobile markets.

The alliance comprises eight top-tier mobile operators - Airtel (India), CSL (Hong Kong), Globe Telecom (Philippines), Maxis (Malaysia), SingTel Mobile (Singapore), SingTel Optus (Australia), Taiwan Mobile (Taiwan) and Telkomsel (Indonesia), serving over 70 million subscribers.

By joining the alliance as a technology associate member, LogicaCMG will have access to regular planning and dialogue sessions, will actively contribute and exchange ideas in order to generate collaborative opportunities with Bridge Mobile’s other technology members such as Axalto, Gemplus, Ericsson, Hewlett Packard, Motorola, Nokia, QUALCOMM and ZTE. The sessions will support a service incubation programme which aims to enable both member operators and technology associate members to test and co-develop solution models for next-generation mobile technologies and services in Asia Pacific.

“With the extension of the alliance community, member operators will be able to partner with global technology players to pioneer the development of Asian-centric mobile technologies and services. This will lead to the creation of more seamless and innovative mobile services for our 70 million subscribers across Asia Pacific,” said Dr. Patrick Sim, CEO of Bridge Mobile. “I am pleased to welcome LogicaCMG to this alliance, and look forward to tapping into its expertise in rolling out mobile solutions customised to the Asia Pacific mobile markets.”

Boudewijn Pesch, managing director, LogicaCMG global telecoms in Asia added: “The Bridge Mobile Alliance provides the eight member operators a universal platform to seamlessly integrate and deploy innovative mobile offerings. We recognise the need for operators to identify and secure new revenue streams, and are excited at the prospect of supporting these alliance members with mobile applications and systems integration expertise to make innovative solutions a reality.”

LogicaCMG was previously selected to set up part of Bridge Mobile’s core infrastructure with a Common Access Gateway and a Wholesale Billing and Settlement System, as well as enabling the initial Bridge Prepaid service. Bridge Prepaid for the first time enables the alliance member operators’ pre-paid subscribers to conveniently and quickly top-up their pre-paid account while roaming in any of the member countries.

Recently LogicaCMG had provided its systems integration expertise to support Bridge Mobile’s roll-out of the World Cyber Games (WCG) Mobile Asian Championship.
