Berlin, Germany and Espoo, Finland - Fujitsu Services Oy has chosen Nokia Local Business Connectivity Solution to Fujitsu's mobility solutions portfolio. Nokia Local Business Connectivity Solution connects company's Nokia Series 60 and Series 80 smartphones with IT services through local radio network, utilizing WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) and Bluetooth. This unique local connectivity solution enables the enterprise mobile device management and transaction automation in a cost efficient way.
The Nokia Local Business Connectivity Solution offers a new way to recognize, authenticate and authorize employees' mobile devices when they arrive in the Nokia Local Business Connectivity Solution coverage area. The mobile services available for the employees are centrally managed by Fujitsu, and the services assigned to the employee are then delivered to the mobile device in a secure, automated way.
"The Nokia Local Business Connectivity solution has made it possible to implement high volume mobile applications, that may not be feasible to implement in another way today. The Nokia Local Business Connectivity Solution is used by Fujitsu, included in the Fujitsu mobile office product offering, and deliveries to first key international customers have already started," says Juha Korsimaa, Development Manager, Fujitsu Services Oy.
"Work goes mobile, and not only personal information management, but existing and tailored corporate applications as well. Furthermore, new context aware services -based on time, location, device status, and user preference- can also be created," says Jouni Malinen, Venture Manager, Nokia Ventures Organization. "To ease this evolution, Nokia Local Business Connectivity Solution provides a fast, secure and seamless way to mobilize the business processes in an economical manner."
Mobilizing any new or existing corporate application is made possible via the Application Programming Interface open for integrator partners. Bringing the transaction automation and context awareness to these applications can increase efficiency and end user satisfaction even more than just by making the application accessible via mobile. The Nokia Local Business Connectivity Solution not only complements the cellular solutions but also expands the potential user segments.
