Verizon Business is to provide and manage a secure global communications network for Daimler AG, a leading global manufacturer of premium passenger cars and commercial vehicles.

Fully managed Verizon Private IP and managed security solutions will be rolled out across Daimler’s operations in Africa, Canada, Europe, Mexico, the Middle East and the United States. In addition, Daimler will deploy Verizon voice-over-Internet-protocol (VoIP) solutions to transition its existing voice communications to an all-IP environment.

Daimler’s criteria included enhanced security capabilities as well as additional capacity to support the efficient exchange of multimedia and data files. In addition, the company wanted enhanced management and reporting capabilities to ensure optimal network performance, as well as the capability to quickly and easily deploy IP-based solutions such as VoIP to achieve business and operational efficiencies.

Daimler’s overall objective was to maximize the potential of its global network for the fast and secure exchange of business-critical information, as well as to enhance employee and customer communications capabilities across its global operations.

Connie Paquette, regional vice president, Verizon Business, said: “Daimler is one of the world’s best-known automotive brands, and is practically a byword for automotive excellence. Effective communications are critical for the operational effectiveness of the company. As such, excellence in solution, service capability and global reach are key criteria in the selection of a business partner."
