Strong growth in Reliance Globalcom global managed service contracts in 2009 Mumbai, June 29, 2009 : Reliance Globalcom, the leading global provider of managed network and communication services for multinational enterprises, carriers and consumers, has enjoyed increasingly strong demand for its secure, scalable, multi-national managed network service offerings since January 1 2009, as the company's global customer base fully realise the harsh implications of the global economic slow-down.
Strong New Business Momentum through Trusted Consultation and Network Agility: Reliance Globalcom's customer base has already expanded significantly. Since the start of the year several new multi-million dollar contracts have been signed. These are based on the completion of a detailed network capability and requirement consultation, and the provision of high bandwidth, scalable solutions entirely matched to the customers' evolving business needs. Organisations including US based Compassion International, UK headquartered consultancy Mott McDonald, and Italian manufacturer La Furla have all announced new agreements this year. In addition: WorleyParsons - A three year, multi-carrier management deal, will ensure the Australian headquartered, global leader in project management services provision, enjoys superior redundancy scalability and performance across the global network to facilitate rapid network expansion into new locations and markets. Reliance Globalcom's award winning MPLS Matrix product, will also support new core financial and IP enabled applications across the global network. "Our global operations are expanding in many markets across the world and Reliance Globalcom's experience of providing in-country support with local understanding was certainly a major consideration in our decision-making process. The manner in which Reliance Globalcom can keep adapting the solution to our changing business needs means that their solution provides us with greater business agility." - Vito Forte, WorleyParsons' CIO. Continued Organic Growth through Existing Customer Renewals and Service Expansions: Contract renewals with existing customers have also been strong in 2009, with major enterprise customers looking to further increase the efficiency and reduce the total cost of ownership of their networks.

In addition the provision of connectivity to China and a supplementary second data centre to support disaster recovery and business critical applications, serving Australia, New Zealand and challenging locations throughout Asia, Africa and Middle East have been added this year. "Reliance Globalcom have been managing our global data network evolution for several years, and were the ideal partner to engage with as we looked to maximise the value of integrated voice offerings into our Australian network.
