In line with NECs goal to expand its consulting and managed services business based on IT/Network integrated solutions, we are pleased to have as our strategic partners, ABeam Consulting and Pointsec Mobile Technologies, both leaders in their fields, as we can leverage on each others core competencies to offer customers a more extensive suite of solutions and services and combinations of offerings for more flexibility to suit their dynamic business needs and enhance their competitive advantage. We are optimistic about the market growth potential in outsourcing business and we expect the MSOC to contribute towards 20% expansion of NECSAPs FY04 revenue of S$339 million to S$0.5 billion by FY06."
"ABeam Consulting has customers which it has served for over 20 years and this is testimony to our focus on quality which is the primary goal of our South East Asia practice. ABeams focus in South East Asia is on Programme Management, Strategy and Operations and Technology. Our alliance with NEC enables us to seamlessly provide end-to-end services to our clients from strategy, through technology, infrastructure and outsourcing, "said Mr. Steve Allen, Managing Director, Southeast Asia, ABeam Consulting Pte Ltd.
NECSAPs alliance with ABeam follows NEC Corporations strategic capital alliance with ABeam Consulting Ltd announced in November 2004. NECSAP provides IT solutions and systems integration, business process outsourcing, project management and maintenance of large turnkey projects and integrated communication solutions for enterprises. The company was one of the few players capable of delivering the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) as early as 1999.
Today, the NEC Managed Services & Outsourcing Centre handles projects based on its established know-how, a combination of local development and NEC Corporations expertise, in the form of service tower models including Desktop & Helpdesk Support, Management and Infrastructure Support.
Hence, NECSAPs key strengths complement ABeams strategic consulting experiences which include management/business strategy, business process, organisation, IT and outsourcing, and highly specialised know-how derived from working with over 500 companies primarily in Asia.
Said Mr. Yagi, "The partnership with ABeam Consulting will enable NECSAP to expand its reach in areas such as strategic consulting and ERP package related services as well as allow both companies to exchange sales leads and leverage on each others strengths to collaborate on developing new services and exploit potential business opportunities in the region."
Under the agreement with Pointsec, NECSAP will act as reseller and marketer of Pointsecs software products and services in Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and The Philippines. Pointsec enables large organisations to take full advantage of todays mobile environment without compromising information security by protecting user credentials and critical data stored on their PCs and mobile computing devices from intrusion and data theft.

"NECSAP is a very successful IT solutions provider to the financial, corporate, and government markets, and has the proven expertise and experience that makes them perfectly suited to become a Pointsec partner."
Said Mr. Yagi, "We are most pleased to be appointed by Pointsec as their reseller in this region spanning Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and The Philippines. At NEC, while we promote a ubiquitous networking society, which allows people to access information anytime, anywhere, we also understand the vital importance of information security and protecting privacy and intellectual property as part of our corporate social responsibility. Hence, NEC has policies in place for the protection of privacy and corporate information security and even established the Customer Information Security Office within the Corporate Ethics Division of Tokyo headquarters, to reinforce information security, especially data from corporate clients. Hence, we find ourselves in a good position to offer our customers Pointsecs software products and services for greater sense of security as part of our service. At NEC, we give top priority to customer satisfaction and are constantly striving to provide better products and better services."
He added, "Moreover, this partnership with Pointsec complements NECs expertise and vast experience in biometrics security solutions spanning iris recognition, fingerprint identification and facial recognition solutions for both public and private sectors, and will help us further expand our IT security business. NEC has over 30 years of continuous R&D in biometrics identification technology and a proven track record of successful implementation in over 27 countries. In Singapore, we pioneered the use of biometrics technology with our Automated Fingerprint Identification System for the national identity card back in 1990." |
