LogicaCMG enters Algerian market

LogicaCMG today announced it has been selected to provide a Next Generation Messaging solution to Wataniya Algeria.

Wataniya has secured one of three GSM network licences awarded in Algeria, strengthening its position as a key mobile operator in the region.

This is the first major mobile infrastructure project for LogicaCMG in Algeria, a deal won in conjunction with Siemens Mobile Networks.

Wataniya Algeria is deploying the Next Generation Messaging architecture that provides network operators with a cost-effective solution in every phase of market development whilst preparing networks to accommodate future service demands.

LogicaCMG’s Next Generation SMSC will support the launch of its range of value-added SMS and content delivery services targeting both consumer and corporate users.

The ability to provide these advanced messaging capabilities will unlock new SMS market opportunities for Wataniya in Algeria, increasing potential revenue generation and enabling it to speed the return on investment for the region.
