· Improved interaction with vessels, proactive issue resolution and prompt information sharing with customers

· Installing and systems integrate mobility on up to 400 vessels over the next 2 years

The oceans are the last “white spot” for mobile communication industry to connect. The world’s largest shipping company, Maersk Line, has appointed Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC) to address this by introducing end-to-end systems integration and deployment of mobile and satellite communication to its entire vessel fleet.

The Maersk Line fleet comprises more than 500 container vessels. Over the next two years, Maersk Line will outfit 400 of these vessels with Ericsson antennas and GSM base stations, with upgrades to be made to the remaining vessels soon after. As part of the agreement, Ericsson will provide seven years of global managed services support, including 24/7 network monitoring and onboard maintenance services in a large number of ports across all major regions.

“We’re proud to be able to connect Maersk Line’s fleet with our technology. We believe in a Networked Society, where connectivity will only be the starting point for new ways of innovating, collaborating and socializing. The result will be automated and simplified processes, higher productivity, real-time information allowing quicker, more informed decision making and problem solving,” said Hans Vestberg, President and CEO of Ericsson.

For the shipping industry, mobile communication provides the opportunity to employ new and efficient ways of addressing fleet management, managing delivery times, improving interaction with vessels, enabling proactive issue resolution and prompt information sharing with customers and even improving energy efficiency.

Until now, Maersk Line’s high-tech modern container ships have been equipped with satellite connectivity primarily intended to support communication for vital shipboard functions. Ericsson’s integrated maritime mobile and very-small-aperture terminal (VSAT) satellite solution will bring extended connectivity to the entire fleet, allowing for new ways of communicating and contributing to efficiency, reliability and cost reduction. It also paves the way for immediate access to remote expertise, resulting in extended access to information and, in turn, improved efficiency in the vessels’ daily operations.

“We’re quite pleased to be the first fleet to be connected with mobile communication technology. We believe it would provide us good opportunities to run our fleet more efficiently.” said Søren Toft, Vice President Maersk Line Operations.

Once they have been connected, the internet is one of the last things that consumers would be willing to give up if they had to reduce their expenses, according to ConsumerLab’s findings.

For more than 15 years, ConsumerLab has been conducting research into people’s values, behaviors and ways of thinking about ICT products and services. Ericsson’s global research program is based on annual interviews with 100,000 individuals in more than 40 countries and more than 10 megacities.

Michael Björn, Head of Research at ConsumerLab, says: “Consumers have taken to smartphone apps like fish to water. Touch and direct access via icons hide the complexity of internet services, and people are now willing to explore many new areas of everyday life – anything from recipes to receipts – that benefit from connectivity. We just concluded a study in emerging markets, and found that even first-time mobile-phone users very quickly become internet users. Connectivity is becoming an increasing part of their daily activities.”

Here are the 10 hottest consumer trends:

1. Connectivity is king. Connectivity has become as essential as the air we breathe. Once they have been connected, consumers say the internet is one of the last things they would be willing to give up if they had to reduce their expenses.

2. Everyone can be a service provider. There is a huge demand for new services. The internet makes it possible for both companies and consumers to invent new solutions, such as apps.

3. Social media redefine news reporting. Social media drive consumption of pictures, video clips and music, and now they also help consumers judge the relevance of news by providing necessary social commentary.

4. Mobile phones play a significant role in everyday life. Consumers show most interest in mobile services that are directly related to nearby places or local services. While 90 percent of all smartphone owners always carry their phones with them, only 80 percent of them mention carrying money.

5. Transparency greater than privacy. People are getting used to living transparent lives and they also expect companies and other organizations to act transparently.

6. The cloud makes things easy to use. Sharing information and having several devices connected at all times is becoming the norm for consumers, resulting in the introduction of more cloud-based services. The main driver is ease of use.

7. Women drive adoption of smartphones. Our 2011 study of smartphone users showed that men still dominate usage of niche services on smartphones while significantly more women use regular services such as voice calling, SMS and Facebook. By actively integrating the use of all communications channels into one device, women are driving mass-market adoption of smartphones.

8. Making shopping easier. Our survey showed that 67 percent of smartphone users are interested in mobile payments. Payments should not be seen in isolation but must be put into a context of everyday shopping – for example, product information, bonus points, receipts and even indoor-shopping-mall navigation.

9. Everything connects. Mobile data surpassed voice in the fourth quarter of 2009 and doubled voice in the first quarter of 2011. Consumers are increasingly connecting to the internet and to things around them, such as cars, vending machines, ticket gates and more.

10. Uncertain times – consumers strive for control. In times of economic instability or when disasters such as earthquakes occur, we see renewed interest among consumers in services related to utilities such as water and electricity. Likewise, a change in disposable income is driving demand for consumers to be in control of service consumption.

Ericsson shares its insights on the top telecommunication trends for the market. “Drawing on our regional network experience, global research, internal analysis and external references, we have identified ten key trends for 2012 with regard to devices, networks, applications, and industry trends,” Elie Hanna, President and Country Manager for Ericsson Philippines, reveals.

From among these ten trends, Ericsson identifies a necessary shift in business models for mobile broadband, the growth in cloud-based offerings, and increasing collaboration between operators and over the top (OTT) players as the top three areas to watch.

“Considering the challenges many operators face where data traffic outpaces revenue growth, Ericsson sees that mobile broadband operators will need to adopt different business models to drive revenue growth as markets mature and the level of differentiation between competitors narrows.” Hanna explains.

“The coming 12 months will see mobile broadband operators borrowing from innovative business models already applied to financial services and airline industries, involving loyalty, user preferences and service customization, as well as defining offerings tailored to the needs of enterprise and SMEs.”

At the same time, operators are dealing with strong growth in smart devices, placing massive demands on networks. “Those operators that have modernized their networks to 3G/HSPA and LTE, will benefit with more cost-effective data delivery and the ability to better meet customer performance expectations,” Hanna says.

As improved broadband capacity helps to overcome network bottlenecks, Ericsson also foresees that cloud-based offerings from telecom operators and ICT providers will continue to grow. Operators can leverage their network based advantages and strengths in managed services to differentiate their cloud-based service offerings, as well as provide collaboration opportunities with other industries.

Hanna says that “we see great opportunities for telecoms operators to commercialize those cloud applications and open up opportunities in traditional markets such as outsourced billing for over-the-top-players, or as a vehicle to enter emerging segments like cloud-based M2M platforms to support various industries.”

“Looking past 2012, as services continue to move into the cloud, it will be increasingly important for operators to offer secure, reliable access while maintaining service continuity, irrespective of fixed or mobile access.”

Also in the area of applications, 2012 will see LTE operators offer smartphones offering VoLTE, heralding an era of high-quality mobile VoIP, Leverating IMS, calls can be moved with ease from PC to mobile to fixed phone.

Looking at Mobile Money and payments, Ericsson sees partnerships with telecom operators as key to success of near field communications (NFC) based mobile money applications. In addition to network advantages, operators possess efficient handset distribution channels, billing trust and customer relationships, secure profiles and location information which can all be used to increase the security of electronic transactions.

In other industry sectors, the rise of LTE as the 4G standard will increase its attractiveness as a legitimate alternative to propriety communications technologies and solutions for industries such as utilities and public safety. Ericsson predicts that utilities such as gas and water will follow the early lead of electricity distributers in some markets, by harnessing LTE for their wireless communications needs, by collaborating with mobile operators, and in some cases investing in their own infrastructure.

Ericsson also shares that the consumer and broader electronics sector, driven by economy of scale efficiency gains, will increasingly embed mobile broadband in consumer and M2M devices, leading to exponential growth in the embedded mobile broadband ecosystem – across 3G and 4G networks. Embedded mobile broadband will not be limited to LTE only; in fact many machine-to-machine (M2M) applications today still run on GSM or EDGE, with higher data demanding applications leveraging WCDMA and HSPA. Operators then need to look at multi-device subscription models and explore opportunities to work closely with other industries that will be keen to leverage mobile broadband in their business operations.

The 2012 predictions cover a wide range of predictions that provide some insights into business growth and new business opportunities across the telecommunications and other industry sectors.

Ericsson is pleased to add these insights to those produced by others in the sector to contribute to discussions about ICT trends and benefits for business and broader community.

2012 PREDICTIONS:

1. Operators will need to adopt new mobile broadband business models to drive profitable growth. Traditional business models based on price, speed and volumes are becoming less effective. The telecom industry will look to replicate commercial models successfully deployed by other industries, such as financial services and airlines.
2. Operators will increase cloud service offerings. Operators can leverage their network-based advantages and strengths in managed services to differentiate their cloud based service offerings. Three major roles for telecom operators are to: manage the cloud connectivity, deliver cloud-based capabilities and, importantly, leverage network assets to enhance cloud offerings. Major telecom operators in Singapore have already launched cloud services and we expect most operators to embrace cloud in their strategies in 2012.
3. Collaboration likely to occur in converged services – The battle for delivery of content on any screen, between operators and over-the-top (OTT) services providers will continue, but there will be greater collaboration in order to leverage network capabilities to optimize the viewing experience and integrate a broader range of network services enablers to enhance the customer experience. On-demand and over-the-top TV solutions continue to grow in desire for watching TV anywhere, at any time, on any device.

Singapore’s leading media company MediaCorp has already announced a trial for 1^st quarter 2012 involving a new interactive service delivered over broadband. Known as “Toggle”, the interactive service will integrate online and traditional TV entertainment experience by delivering content to the subscribers’ preferred devices such as a “Connected TV”, computer, tablet device or mobile phone.

1. Embedded Mobile Broadband Growth. Driven by increasing business integration of ICT to deliver efficiency and productivity, key growth areas for embedded mobile broadband in 2012 will be notebook computers, cameras, e-book readers, fixed wireless terminals, mobile health devices as well as smart meter applications. Tablet devices will accelerate the eBook revolution in Singapore.
2. Explosive Growth in Tablets and Smartphones. Worldwide tablet momentum will show no sign of abating in 2012, with the number of tablet subscription expected to grow 10 times in the next five year. It is well known that Singapore has one of the highest take-up of smart devices – and this growth in tablets and smart phones will put pressure on networks to provide high performance to meet device capabilities.
3. LTE goes mainstream. Operators will continue to deploy LTE both to enable differentiated service levels to consumers and as a cost effective means of handling data growth. Growing LTE device ecosystem will support take-up and makes this a hot area to watch.
4. Operators start to plan for HetNets. 2012 will see operators in this region starting to think about their HetNet strategies. Hetereogeneous networks refers to coordinated cells of varying capacities and sizes – designed to alleviate base station mobile traffic congestion and to enhance network coverage and improve performance. We see that operators will be closely monitoing data traffic growth and identifying where they will benefit from HetNets in future.
5. Mobile voice will be available over LTE – LTE operators will offer smartphones supporting Voice Over LTE (VoLTE). VoLTE will provide high quality IP voice services, and not fixed and mobile telcos, it will enable true fixed-mobile convergence for the first time. Leveraging IMS, calls can be moved with ease between platforms – from PC to mobile to fixed phone.
6. Operators play a key role in success of mobile money – Near field communications is expected to come of age across Singapore, with telecom operators, handset manufacturers and operating system vendors, banks and credit card companies as well as payment platform providers contesting for market share. We see this being applied across retail and point-of-sale terminals and taxis for example, that will be able to accept contactless payment from NFC enabled phones.
7. Other utilities will follow the early lead of electricity sector in other markets and look at harnessing LTE for their wireless connectivity needs. The pre-eminence of 3GPP standards for HSPA + and now LTE networks has made these wireless standards dominant in the global market, guaranteeing that they represent the lowest cost and safest future choice not only for mobile network operators but also other industries.

(L-R) Bobby Aquino, Strategic Marketing & CRM Mgr, Magsaysay Transport & Logistics; Doris Magsaysay Ho, President & CEO, Magsaysay; Rene Huergas, President IP-Converge; and Zakir Ahmed, Regional Vice President, Salesforce.com

Manila City, 13 December 2011 — Magsaysay Transport and Logistics Corporation (MTLC), a subsidiary of Magsaysay Maritime Corporation, recently signed an agreement with IP Converge Data Center, Inc. (IP-Converge) for its subscription to Salesforce.com Customer Relationship Management (CRM), world-leading cloud-based CRM solution for the “social enterprise”.

IP-Converge says today’s business operations require tools that allow employees to collaborate and share information in real time – similar to popular social networking websites and applications. This way, business applications are easier to learn and are more engaging, giving companies a more dynamic and social business environment, which results in increased productivity in the workplace.

MTLC is a group of companies primarily engaged in full-container liner shipping, 3rd-party logistics, distribution, tankering and petroleum barging, ship management, marine bunkering, agency and brokerage, chassis leasing and hauling, port equipment, tour operations and fast-ferry charters, marine repairs and services, marine consultancy, and offshore marine transport services.

IP-Converge, the country’s first and only publicly listed Internet Data Center and Cloud Services Provider (PSE: ‘CLOUD’), is the Philippines’ only Salesforce.com Select Consulting Partner. Aside from Salesforce CRM licenses, the company also provides integration and consulting services to various enterprises in the country and the region. As an initial requirement, IP-Converge has implemented Salesforce CRM for Magsaysay Transport and Logistics.

IP-Converge also integrated MTLC’s existing SAP ERP system with Salesforce CRM.

Mimi Dizon, IP-Converge Director for Business Development – CRM, says, “We are very enthusiastic about working with Magsaysay Transport & Logistics. It is a great testament to how Salesforce CRM is viewed as an essential component of any business, even those with existing ERPs.”

Magsaysay Transport & Logistics will be using Salesforce.com for various facets of their business such as account management, marketing automation, database management, pipeline management, and business analytics and reporting. And because the solution is Cloud-based, users are able to access and make updates from practically anywhere.

“We have offices in practically all major ports and cities in the Philippines, and because we foresee CRM as an integral part of our day to day operations, it is important that we are able to easily deploy a solution that allows quick user adoption for unhampered operations and real-time information updates”, says Doris Magsaysay Ho, President & CEO of Magsaysay.

Cloud computing is the delivery of applications, infrastructure, or computing platforms as a service utilizing shared data center resources, rather than as a product. It enables users to access and subscribe to such services, anytime, anywhere, over the Internet.

Salesforce CRM is the world’s most proven customer relationship management solution, allowing enterprises to efficiently serve and manage its customers and maintain budget at the same time. Being a cloud computing service, it utilizes a pay-as-you-go model that saves customers from the burden of having to spend on heavy capex.
