Global technology majors HP and Alcatel-Lucent have signed a relationship agreement to form a 10-year global alliance to jointly market solutions and capabilities that enable end-to-end transformation for service providers and enterprises.
Through the alignment of their offerings and common solutions, HP and Alcatel-Lucent plan to create a ‘one-stop shop’ to empower enterprises to effectively create and manage truly integrated communication environments.
The companies plan to launch a global go-to-market programme to transform communication networks into converged, next-generation infrastructures besides offering services to manage the new and existing infrastructures for customers looking for flexible sourcing options.
“IT and telecom are coming together in an unprecedented way and I am delighted to see how we can speed up innovation in our industry,” said Ben Verwaayen, Alcatel-Lucent’s chief executive officer. “I am also confident that HP will deliver Alcatel-Lucent best-in-class solutions in terms of performance and cost for our IT needs.”
HP and Alcatel-Lucent also plan to create a joint go-to-market initiative to provide communications solutions to mid- and large-size enterprises and public sector organisations.
Alcatel-Lucent’s products in IP telephony, unified communications, mobility, security and contact centers will be integrated with HP IT solutions. These joint solutions are planned to be offered to enterprises through HP resellers or as managed services.
