* MobiFone to implement a consolidated operations support systems (OSS)
solution for network monitoring and management
* Ericsson will drive an OSS transformation program that will establish a
unified Network Management platform and consolidate MobiFone's six
Regional

* Some 30 million subscribers to benefit from an improved network that is

Vietnamese mobile operator MobiFone, which is fully owned by VNPT Group, has
entered an agreement with Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC) to consolidate its six
Regional
Network Operations Centers (RNOC) in Vietnam into one Centralized NOC in
Hanoi.
Under the agreement, Ericsson will, through its Consulting and Systems
Integration expertise, consolidate MobiFone's network operations organization
and implement a unified Network Management System.
The Vietnamese market is characterized by high penetration and the
introduction
of new services and applications, as well as new mobile terminals. Today there
are some 140 million mobile subscriptions in a market of 90 million people.
Le Ngoc Minh, Chairman of MobiFone, says: "Partnering with Ericsson in this
NOC
consolidation project is another step in our effort to further enhance our
network performance and maintain our position based on a superior quality of
offering in the market. With this project, and the implementation of the
unified
Network Management system, we will ensure that we have both an efficient
organization and the right technical setup to introduce new services to our
customers."
MobiFone, which launched its GSM network in 1993 and its 3G network in 2009,
is
today one of the largest operators in Vietnam, with a market share of 32
percent. MobiFone has some 30 million subscribers in Vietnam and six NOCs in
Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh, Danang, Can Tho, Hai Phong and Dong Nai. In 2010 MobiFone
was named "Best Service Quality Operator" by the Ministry of Information and
Communications in Vietnam.
Jan Wassenius, Head of Ericsson Vietnam, says: "The number of mobile
subscriptions in Vietnam has increased dramatically in recent years, and today
mobile phone penetration is higher than 150 percent. In this environment,
network quality and the ability to introduce new services and terminals are
essential factors to attract and retain customers. Through the consolidation
of
the Network Operations Centers and the implementation of the unified Network
Management System, we are supporting MobiFone's efforts to further improve its
position in the market."
Ericsson will deliver an integrated and unified Network Management System
combined with operational consultancy services. Components included in the
unified Network Management System include, among others: fault management -
identifying and locating faults in the network; performance management -
measuring the performance of various network components; trouble ticketing -
management of problems/faults associated with specific network resources;
configuration management - managing the setup of devices on the network.
