[Satellite TODAY 07-04-11] Consilium Marine Group, a supplier of marine products and customer services, has won a contract with Orange Business Services to market Orange’s marine VSAT communication solutions through Consilium’s 34 offices in 19 countries, the companies announced July 1.
Consilium will market Orange services, including a VSAT satellite communication system specially developed for marine communications to integrate vessels into a corporate network enabling access to all business applications as if the vessel is a terrestrial office.
“[This agreement] will also allow us to develop our systems to their full extent for compliance with the industry’s never-ending enhancement of safety requirements. Improved communication for verbal and written conversation and remote diagnostics are only a few features enabling this and that can be made possible by this collaboration,” Consilium President Ove Hansson said in a statement.
