Telstra and Telkom Indonesia have finalised a joint venture (JV) agreement to provide Network Application and Services to Indonesian enterprises, multi-nationals and Australian companies operating in Indonesia.<\/p>\n
Network Application and Services (NAS) support business continuity, operational efficiency and productivity improvement and protect business information, allowing enterprises to focus more on their core business and end customers.<\/p>\n
Telstra Global Enterprise and Services Group Executive, Brendon Riley, said the joint venture brings together two of the region\u2019s leading telecommunication and enterprise service providers in a strategic partnership to deliver NAS for enterprises operating in Indonesia.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe JV is an important step in Telstra\u2019s Asia strategy and aligns with our aim to build new growth businesses that leverage the strengths of our unique NAS capabilities.\u00a0 We are excited to build a new market of enterprise solutions with Telkom,\u201d Mr Riley said.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy partnering with Telkom Indonesia in the fast growing NAS market we leverage local expertise, a respected brand and service capabilities. The JV will deliver locally supported managed data network and security services, as well as cloud and unified communications services.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe JV will offer an integrated end to end service, unique in the Indonesian market, by enabling NAS to be bundled with Telkom\u2019s connectivity and sold through Telkom Indonesia and Telstra\u2019s enterprise sales\u2019 teams,\u201d Mr Riley said.<\/p>\n
“We believe the JV NAS will grow significantly not only because of the partnership with Telstra, but also considering Telkom\u2019s capabilities in network and data centre, as well as Telkom’s strong position in the enterprise market segment which is the target market of NAS,” said Arief Yahya, CEO of Telkom.<\/p>\n
The JV will be led by CEO Phill Sporton. Mr Sporton was most recently Executive Director Customer Service Delivery for Telstra, leading a team of over 15,000 people across three continents.<\/p>\n
\u201cPhill has extensive experience in technology engineering, network planning and design, information technology and project management, which puts him in a great position to lead the JV,\u201d Mr Riley said.<\/p>\n
The JV aims to begin serving NAS solutions to enterprise customers in Indonesia in 2015.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
