BT and Mapflow announce multi-million euro deal

Dublin-based Location Based Services (LBS) firm Mapflow has secured a contract with BT Wholesale.

The deal is expected to be worth more than €15m.

BT Wholesale will offer Mapflow’s LocationAgent platform as a managed service to mobile operators and internet service providers.

Mapflow’s LocationAgent allows organisations to track the position of remote workers or vehicles on an online map and compare their current position with critical destination points such as customer delivery addresses.

Richard Bryce, Mapflow CEO said: "Through BT, the practical benefits of LocationAgent will be made available to a worldwide market of mainstream business users. This will clearly boost our global presence and significantly accelerate our business as the LBS market takes off."
