ESPOO, Finland, March 4, 2002 (PRIMEZONE) -- TietoEnator's focus within the area Machine-to-Machine is now further strengthened with a newly started M2M Solution Center. The aim is to offer its customers a total solution, from requirement analysis and business development to system integration and operation. TietoEnator's M2M Solution Center is located in Kista.
M2M means communication between machines via, for example, the mobile network. An M2M system means that the information in machines and vehicles is always available and that products, people and business systems can be linked together irrespective of time and place. In this way, new business opportunities are created.
An M2M solution can be used to make operations more effective. Just as often, technology creates entirely new business opportunities. TietoEnator offers total solutions within M2M with the focus on the customer's business benefits. The company's focus builds on broad competence within both business and technology development in combination with in-depth knowledge of the customers' branches. The objective of TietoEnator's focus is to create new business opportunities for its customers.
"We believe that M2M technology will be a commercially critical part of our customers' operations and therefore the focus on a Solution Center is strategically important. Wireless communication is an important step in the building of the information society," said Juhani Stromberg, Development Director at TietoEnator.
The areas of use for M2M are many and typical applications are the reading of meters and the remote controlling of machines and processes. Other areas are the handling of transports and communication with medical systems.
