TietoEnator joins TTPCom's AJAR Platform ecosystem

- TTPCom Limited ("TTPCom") today announces that TietoEnator, one of Europe's largest IT and software services providers, has joined the AJAR Platform ecosystem. Following this agreement, customers of TTPCom's AJAR Platform will be able to draw on TietoEnator's expertise to help customers to differentiate as well as improve time to market for the next generation feature phones.

TTPCom's flourishing AJAR partner programme, which allows customers to choose from a broad portfolio of pre-integrated applications, has delivered an effective route to deliver mass market feature phones. This programme is enhanced by the inclusion of TietoEnator, the first AJAR systems integrator, as it gives customers further choice regarding the allocation of their engineering resources.

Morten Iversen, Director of Partnership Programmes at TTPCom comments: "TietoEnator has a great track record working with operators and tier one handset manufacturers on a variety of integration projects. This expertise, combined with in-depth understanding of the AJAR Platform, translates into significant benefits for our customers who can use TietoEnator's approx. 5000 telecom experts as an extension of their own R&D departments."

Mikael Carlsson, Business Development Director Mobile Devices at Tietoenator adds: "In the past we have worked closely with mobile handset manufacturers, engaging in projects from consulting and contracting to complete product responsibility. Now that we are part of the AJAR Platform ecosystem, we will be able to support TTPCom customers with their projects, from bespoke integration to large scale customisations."

Over the next few months, TTPCom expects to sign up additional systems integrators with complementary strengths, to continue to support customers' requirements wordwide.
