Business: Pyro acquires Mumbai-based BKP-Consultants

Singapore, (ANTARA News/PRNewswire-AsiaNet) - CommunicAsia 2008 -- Pyro Networks, a mobile technology solutions provider, announces its acquisition of the Mumbai-based BKP-Consultants for an undisclosed sum of money. A key asset in the acquisition is BKP Consultant's eye-SPOT(TM) solution, which provides an integrated and automated network approach to RF optimization and planning.

eye-SPOT provides operators with an easy way to track quality, revenue, problems and forecasting in their network -- including hot reports, GIS capabilities, trends and history -- all of which provide key information for operators to manage network issues in an efficient way. eye-SPOT is a vendor- and technology-agnostic solution that works with GSM, GPRS, WCDMA, CDMA2000(TM) and WIMAX networks.

A single, integrated platform, eye-SPOT provides complete performance analysis from the network level perspective down to the cell level and/or trunk level, with network element additions catered automatically. The eye-SPOT platform connects to the drive test data, OSS data and configuration data of different network elements (BSS, NSS and CORE) at either local or remote locations. The data collection, parsing, processing and administration is done automatically without any manual intervention.

"We are very excited to have acquired this industry-leading, network evaluation, optimization and management solution -- essential for ensuring optimal systems performance and smooth operations," says SM Reddy, Founder and Managing Director of the Pyro Group. "Today, eye-SPOT is being utilized by key wireless carriers such as Vodafone, BSNL, Airtel, Reliance, Tata Teleservices, Spice Telecom and TCI in Iran, and OEMs such as Motorola, NSN and Alcatel. We are planning on making the solution available to carriers and infrastructure vendors globally and look forward to bring this competitive offering to the market," Mr Reddy continues.

The eye-SPOT performance management, network planning and optimization solution includes a comprehensive range of management decision-making and engineering analysis options that help network service providers to ensure reliable performance, efficient operations and optimum return on investments.
