During TCCA's Critical Communications World 2019 in Kuala Lumpur (18-20 June 2019) Angelo Bul, General Manager of PrioCom, announced the strategic partnership between PrioCom and TASSTA.

This partnership is complemented with Push-to-Talk device partners Sonim and Telo Systems and network connectivity partner T-Mobile. This guarantees an end-to-end ecosystem for mission-critical communication based on industry standards via 4G/5G. The Critical Communications Association (TCCA) endorses this new collaboration and the opportunities it offers for mission-critical users.

TASSTA provides an innovative mission-critical Push-to-Talk (hereafter MC PTT) end-to-end solution. This solution also offers increased safety with the lone-worker application. In combination with a complete control-room dispatcher application and a universal gateway to a wide range of radio network systems, TASSTA meets all requirements in the field of critical communication, business process optimization and security, essential for mission-critical Push-to-Talk.

Kaveh Hosseinzadeh, managing director TASSTA: “Our Push-to-Talk platform is the most innovative and competitive solution in the market. We guarantee that we will continue to develop our critical communication platform in accordance with industry standards (3GPP) and that we will always be at the forefront of market developments with new functionalities.”

By approaching the market together, this strategic partnership offers users in specific branches such as security, transport, industry, energy, construction, events and public order and safety, a unique mission-critical and secure Push-to-Talk solution via 4G/5G networks.

Full commitment from all PrioCom strategic ecosystem partners

“PrioCom offers as a Secure MVNO on the T-Mobile network with priority voice and data communication and combined with TASSTA as application partner and our strategic partners: T-Mobile, Sonim and Telo Systems, a future-proof critical communication solution with national coverage and a high Quality of Service in the market. This complies with the MC PTT 3GPP industry standard,” according to Angelo Bul, General Manager of PrioCom.

Harald Ludwig, Chairman of the Technical Forum of TCCA adds: “TCCA is a global organization promoting the use of standard solutions for mission-critical communication. We are pleased to see that PrioCom as a TCCA member, and strategic partners play a pioneering role in delivering mission-critical communication in Europe, not only aimed at expansion for public order and security, but also at specific sectors. This is good news for users, because they really get full interoperability. PrioCom shows that mission-critical solutions can be delivered today and that companies can safely migrate from their current radio systems to standard MC PTT.”
