MANSFIELD, MA March 22, 2024 – Telco Systems, the leading vendor of connected, intelligent edge solutions, today announced, that it has been awarded a further contract from CEMEX, S.A.B (NYSE: CX), a leading global construction materials company, for Edgility, the company’s virtualized edge management and orchestration platform. This follows the successful rollout of Edgility to CEMEX sites across Europe and Central and South America, with thousands of end points already deployed.
Building on the initial success of the Edgility deployment, the contract extends and expands the original agreement that was entered into in 2021, when Edgility was selected as the virtualization platform for CEMEX’s new communications network. The deployment of Edgility to CEMEX’s thousands of locations worldwide is on track to complete during the current year. This latest contract extends the original five-year licence agreement by a further two years and includes additional services provision to support the deployment.
This expanded contract signifies CEMEX’s continued satisfaction with Edgility’s performance and its potential to support their long-term goals. Edgility’s high-performance capabilities, ease of use, and advanced automation features have demonstrably improved CEMEX’s network management and reduced operational costs. The extended agreement underscores the versatility of the Edgility platform. By leveraging the same platform for both networking and compute, CEMEX can seamlessly expand its operations to incorporate advanced edge computing functionalities, including AI applications. This paves the way for further operational efficiencies and data-driven decision making at CEMEX’s global locations.
“We are delighted to expand and enhance our business with CEMEX,” said Ariel Efrati, Chief Executive Officer of Telco Systems. “This expansion contract is a fantastic endorsement of our solution and demonstrates its value, as well as the value of our ongoing relationship with them. We are committed to continuing to prove value as we future-proof this rollout, and with our ability to provide additional cutting edge services on top”.
“We are excited to continue and expand our valuable partnership with Telco Systems”, said Fernando García-Villaraco Casero, Processes & IT at Cemex. “Following the successful initial deployment and as part of our long term plan, we have chosen to extend the use of Edgility as our company-wide edge compute platform. This will connect thousands of CEMEX locations around the world, enabling seamless managed connections, improved network performance, and ultimately reduced costs, lower energy consumption, and a simplified management system for our operations. Edgility will also enable us to expand our operations to advanced Edge functionality including AI applications, leveraging the same platform for both networking and compute.”
