Pakistan Telecommunication Company Limited (PTCL) has inked a Managed Services Network Agreement with Habib Bank Limited (HBL) to provide networking for the leading bank’s 1400 branches across Pakistan.
The telecom giant’s latest initiative in the business and enterprise sector will make possible deployment of primary and backup data connectivity, Information Technology equipment, support and maintenance in every single HBL branch to provide seamless services for the bank.
“PTCL’s customer focused strategy coupled with its comprehensive network infrastructure is the only choice for enterprises to avail one-window ICT solution,” said PTCL Senior Executive Vice President Business Development, Hamid Farooq, on the occasion of agreement signing held at PTCL CTH Building, Karachi. “As the nation’s largest integrated telecommunication services provider, it is our duty and obligation to provide services of international standards to public sector, as well as financial, educational and enterprise markets.”
“The strategic partnership and synergy between PTCL and HBL is an ideal combination to achieve our goal to deliver exceptional client experiences through improved operational efficiency with the inclusion of next generation applications and expansion of online banking by virtue of PTCL’s huge and resilient infrastructure,” said HBL Chief Information Officer, Mudassir Khan on the occasion.
Mr. Khan further stated that HBL’s technological partnership with PTCL will enable the bank to focus on its core business functions resulting in supreme customer services.
PTCL will be responsible for all of HBL’s network and connectivity related affairs.
ptcl is continuously launching new services…but its old services like broadband is becoming shit day by day poor service..focus on your old services
Those old shit services of PTCL is left only for shit people like yourself.Bare with it.
This is quite intriguing. Habib Bank is probably the only bank which has trusted it full network to PTCL. There are many other providers with better service in Pakistan but maybe because of PTCL reach. My contact at Habib bank also said PTCL has big money inside of Habib bank so it had no choice but to give PTCL it network. Quid pro quo?:))))
a good step for progress.
Dunno about it though…
I dont understand this deal!! HBL is already online !! why they have this agreement!! also without any tender or bidding…it seems fishy
