"The aim of solution reliability and manageability is above all to ensure better coordination for town departments. With more effective tools, staff can respond more quickly and calmly to day-to-day requests from the population."

Dominique El Sayed , IT Systems Manager

The town of Stains, in the greater Paris area, saw its outdated IT and telephone system pushed to its limits by the growth in information exchanges among its 50 sites. Alcatel-Lucent was called in to establish a converged network to carry all voice and data traffic between the various municipal sites. The new network delivers service quality, autonomy for the IT department so that it could manage the system on a day-to-day basis, and economies of scale.
