Arqiva helps police to get MobileAware
Arqiva has announced an exclusive reseller agreement with MobileAware, a provider of technology for mobile data solutions based in Ireland and the United States.
The agreement covers sales to Police Authorities in England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, for three of MobileAware’s core products; SmartIP, ExpressQ and IntelliSwitching. The three MobileAware products form key elements in Arqiva’s multi-bearer, multi-device police mobile data solution and are designed to complement each other within the wireless environment and work across all the available air interfaces such as 3G, GPRS, Wi-Fi and TETRA.
Arqiva’s solution has already been used in six mobile data trials with five different police forces in the UK, two of which are still running, and the agreement with MobileAware will increase the benefits for police forces.
Peter Harris, Head of Mobile Data at Arqiva’s Public Safety Group, said, “Mobile data is high on the agenda for UK Police Forces following Sir Ronnie Flanagan’s policing review in February 2008, and it is vital that the right products are implemented to help Forces meet their targets, including increased efficiency and visibility. Our mobile data solution is designed to meet the stringent requirements of today’s policing, and includes the best possible products within it, in order to ensure optimal usage for our customers. MobileAware products are key to this and help us provide the benefits that really count.”
Todd Shingler, Chief Executive Officer at MobileAware, said, “Arqiva’s experience with UK Police forces provides an ideal channel for the distribution of MobileAware’s products into a market where they are most needed right now. Our mobile data products serve more than 100 businesses across six continents and will provide Arqiva with the reliability they expect.”
