AT&T Wins Contract From Allied Electronics

AT&T announced that it has successfully implemented an Internet Protocol Virtual Private Network (IP VPN) for Allied Electronics, a distributor of electronic and electromechanical component products, under a $2.1 million contract. AT&T also won an additional $1.4 million contract to extend and expand voice networking services for the company. Both contracts run for three years.



AT&T is providing a high-speed data network that connects Allied Electronics' local sales offices directly to each other and to the company's headquarters and prioritizes traffic so that critical functions are not compromised by limited bandwidth. The new voice networking agreement will save the company an estimated 30 percent. Combined, the AT&T data and voice solutions also pave the way for Allied Electronics to implement Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technology.

"With a proven track record, best-in-class service and ability to focus multiple resources on our issues, AT&T clearly has the competitive advantage," said Rick Davidson, director of technology for Allied Electronics. "By selecting AT&T for all our data and voice networking services, we have set the foundation for a corporate-wide VoIP implementation beginning later this year."
