Colem Expands into Asia

2 August 10

Colem has appointed Carrick Communications Ltd as its agent for the Asia-Pacific region.

“Colem’s Network Management Systems have been supplied to major operators in the satellite and broadcast markets in many countries over the past ten years,” commented Bob Gough, Managing Director, Carrick Communications. “We feel confident that we can consolidate and expand Colem’s Asia-Pacific market penetration and customer support from our base in Brisbane, Australia.”

Colem’s NMS systems range from very large systems covering multiple earth station sites and associated control centres (typically 5,000 data points), to civil and military mobile, flyaway and SNG terminals.

In addition to over 20 years NMS experience, the success of Colem’s NMS systems is enhanced by the use of a market-leading, industry-standard core SCADA engine, used in all process control industries worldwide. This mature, well-supported system is in stark contrast to some NMS systems, which are based upon specific in-house software developments.

“We are delighted to be working with Carrick Communications,” commented Martin Coleman, Director, Colem. “The company has been operating in the satellite communications business since 1990, and brings a wealth of experience to assist Colem in the region.”
