We strongly believe that now is the time the industry must radically transform. The focus must be on digitisation and monetising every service opportunity. In order to do this, it is vital for them to be equipped with the right Intel and tools to take care of operations and revenue optimisation. This is exactly what our alliance is all about – easier operations and better cash flow.”
