(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Verizon Business (www.verizonbusiness.com) will provide a secure private IP network for bio-analysis firm Eurofins Scientific (www.eurofins.com), connecting its 16 key global operational sites including laboratories and research centres in Europe, Asia and the US with the company’s global customer base in one unified network.
According to its Friday announcement, Verizon will use multi-protocol label switching to provide Eurofins with a unified, IP-based network. Eurofins provides comprehensive analytical-testing services for the pharmaceutical, food and environmental sectors for evaluating the authenticity, origin, safety, identity, composition and purity of biological substances and products. To achieve both cost and management efficiencies, it is converging its global voice and data communications to a single network.
“We have been working with Verizon Business since 2006, and throughout our relationship the Verizon Business team has excelled in its ability to fully understand our business,” Eurofins Scientific group IT infrastructure manager Jean-Pierre Munier said in a statement. “The team is really part of our team, and their experience, skill and expertise is critical in helping us to maximise the potential of our technology to support our business growth.”
Verizon Private IP can support Voice over IP as well as unified communications to boost collaboration and productivity, all within a secure communications environment. Eurofins particularly wanted a secure global communications infrastructure with enhanced capacity to support data-intensive information exchange and real-time data-backup services.
The company also wanted a network that is scalable and flexible enough to support ongoing growth. Quality of service, supported by stringent service-level agreements, was particularly important since Eurofin’s reputation is built on its ability to quickly and securely handle time-sensitive analytical test data.
Previously, Verizon Business’ fully-managed Verizon Private IP solution was chosen by fashion house Liz Claiborne (www.lizclaiborne.com) to connect its operations in 25 countries globally to support the company’s global communications needs, enhance network management and achieve significant global cost efficiencies.
