Mettler Toledo completes migration of global network to Orange Business Services
Paris and Zurich, Sept. 9, 2009
entire global network covering 130 locations in 36 countries successfully migrated to provide converged global voice and data service
Orange Business Services has successfully implemented a global wide area network (WAN) connecting more than 130 locations in 36 countries for Mettler Toledo, a global manufacturer and marketer of precision instruments for use in laboratory, industrial and food retailing applications.
Under a 4-year, $11 million contract signed in 2008, Orange Business Services is providing converged global voice and data service as well as additional mobile services in France with approximately 400 lines.
With headquarters in Switzerland, Mettler Toledo looked to save costs and improve service quality of their WAN which was based on public Internet VPN.
Substantial savings were achieved through convergence of voice and data by combining the two Orange Business Services products Business Talk and IP VPN. Running the Orange VoIP service Business Talk over their IP VPN MPLS service allows for voice and data to run over a single local loop with substantially reduced long distance voice call rates, and facilitates deployment of IP Telephony and Unified Communications.
Mettler Toledo is going through a complete revamp of its IT infrastructure, from a new network to the SAP deployment. Orange Business Services was chosen over two of its competitors because of the global know-how, coverage, proven experience and the reliable network which is crucial for Mettler Toledo’s business.
Peter Moebius, vice president and country manager of Orange Business Services in Switzerland, said: “We are very pleased to have successfully completed the implementation of a new global network for Mettler Toledo. Now the company will benefit from a converged solution allowing it to save money while experiencing the security and reliability of a world-class network.”
