Dynacons will start by offering services to WaveRider customers in Australia
and Dubai and also implement complete wireless networking projects for them
Mumbai-based Dyna-cons Systems and Solutions is trying to make inroads into
the overseas market by leveraging on its partnership with WaveRider
Communications, a provider of in non-line-of-sight wireless broadband technology
and deployments. Currently Dyna-cons has its own office in Singa-pore. It will
soon start opera-tions in Australia and Dubai.
Initially, Dynacons will start by offering services to Wave-Rider customers
in these countries and will use this knowledge to entrench itself there. It will
also implement complete wireless networking projects for this lesser-known brand
in the region. Dynacons recently bagged a Rs 21 lakh project in Nigeria and is
finali-zing two more networking projects in the Middle East.
"Though the value of the Nigeria project was not huge, we are using such
deployments to establish ourselves as a WaveRider partner and buil-ding a strong
portfolio with which we can go to custo-mers," said Dharmesh Anjaria,
Director (Corporate & Finance), Dynacons Systems and Solu-tions. The company
would rather work with vendors like WaveRider who have a select channel
worldwide, than be one of the many partners of a popular brand.
Dynacons will also shift its systems integration business to Dubaiwhich is a
free trade zone, by March 2005. It has worked out a business model where it will
offer the hardware at a little over the cost price, but will make margins on the
service level agreements. "PCs and other systems have become commoditized
and to survive, one has to look at offering complete infrastru-cture management
solutions," noted Dharmesh.
