Fixed line procurement decisions have traditionally been made at a local and not global level, but as communications technology blurs the boundaries between regions, the need is growing for a more strategic approach.

Your choice of fixed line provider today will have a huge impact on your company's ability to exploit new communications tomorrow.

We understand that fixed line services play a crucial role in the realisation of an integrated global communications vision, and we consult with you to find the optimum pathway forward.

In today's economic climate multinational organisations tend to face three major challenges:

• Cost reduction through better management of fixed and mobile costs
• The minimisation of the number of supplier relationships in order to improve communications management
• Improve the productivity of everyone in the company

We can evaluate and consolidate your fixed and mobile suppliers immediately - and help you take firmer control of your entire communications estate.

We can carry fixed voice traffic to and from your PBX system, over direct and indirect access lines. We provide fixed access lines through our own infrastructure or by transferring existing lines from your current fixed provider to us. We can also install additional lines as required. For smaller sites where the cost of a dedicated fixed line isn't justified, we can use Carrier Pre-Selection to automatically re-route calls from your existing provider to us.

We have a range of fixed line solutions that reduce costs and provide superior value through more effective management of fixed and mobile communications. We deliver competitive call and line rental costs in more than 40 countries. We offer low rates for local, national, international and mobile calls, flexible and transparent pricing and bundled commercial deals across both fixed and mobile tariffs.

It's easy to switch to our fixed line solutions - you can keep the same telephone numbers and continue to make calls as usual.

Dealing with us for both your fixed and mobile services allows you to benefit from simplified vendor management and reduced administration overheads, with no changes in day-to-day operations of the PBX system. And you can enhance your ability to benefit from the productivity gains offered by our next-generation converged fixed and mobile communications solutions.

We want to work with you because we will help you cut cost and add value by managing both your fixed and mobile communications more effectively. We provide a reliable and secure connectivity solution that is designed to be scalable, and by choosing a single consolidated supplier for all your communication needs, we help make management simpler and cost control easier. We can help your business take advantage of products that are compatible with new infrastructures, allowing you to adopt technologies quickly and effectively and stay one step ahead of the competition.
