Thriving German software company consolidates communications on a global scale

Software AG (SAG) had developed a complex global IT communications infrastructure, featuring over 300 individual contracts with more than 80 providers in 58 countries. New technologies were running alongside older ones.

But Dr Dirk Ventur had a different vision: a single service provider delivering a standardised and harmonised IP-based communications infrastructure as a managed service with full cost transparency, right across the corporation.

So it proved that by selecting BT as its prime contractor SAG took the first decisive step towards achieving its goals. In unifying its contracts for voice and data communications it has also created a far more flexible and resilient architecture. It’s reduced costs by around 25 per cent too. That’s great news for the company, its employees, and customers.

“Our communications have now been standardised and made transparent, just as we wanted. Everything comes from one single source. BT and SAG have together managed to make the infrastructure so flexible that we also have a clear view of the individual elements at all times.”
