Marshall Islands National Telecommunications Authority (NTA) Triples Their Capacity with Voiceware Systems

October 27, 2005 (West Palm Beach, Florida) – Voiceware Systems (VS), known for its award winning Telephony Services Platform (TSP), today announced a 300 percent expansion to the Marshall Islands National Telecom Authority’s (NTA) TSP.  

NTA currently offers Prepaid Phone cards and is anticipating rapid traffic growth on the TSP with the roll out of Prepaid Wireless service. The ease of expansion, the flexibility and reliability of the TSP Platform made it an easy choice for NTA to go with VS. As a bonus NTA was able to get a customized version of the Customer Recharge IVR solution to completely automate the customer recharge process.

“We have worked closely with NTA and we are excited to be continuing that relationship in order to help them service their customers more effectively,” said Brian Betron, President of Voiceware Systems.

“We are delighted to have chosen Voiceware Systems because of the company's innovative and feature rich platform which fully meets the needs of our customers,” said Thomas De Brum of Marshall Islands National Telecommunications Authority. “We are confident that the new upgrade will deliver benefits to our company as we are expanding our penetration in the Federated States of Micronesia.”

About Marshall Islands National Telecom.

Marshall Islands National Telecommunications Authority (NTA) has a monopoly on the provision of all telecom services in the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI). Until mid-2003 there was no local ISP, so Internet access was provided through a satellite link to IT&E Overseas on Guam. A digital TDMA-800 cellular service launched during 2000, replacing the island’s original AMPS system. This system includes both fixed and mobile services and provides telephone service to some of the other islands in the Kwajalein Atoll where no fixed-line service is available. A potential agreement involving the Federated States of Micronesia and RMI proposes to run 3,500 kilometers of fiber optic, submarine cable from Guam to Pompeii, Kwajalein and Majuro.
