Hanjin Shipping

The client

Hanjin Shipping is Korea’s largest, and amongst the world’s top ten container carriers. They transport over 100 million tons of cargo annually via a fleet of some 170 containerships, bulk and LNG carriers, operating approximately 60 global liner and tramper services.

Hanjin employs some 5,800 global staff in their 230 branch offices, which are located in ~60 different countries. With 6 inland logistics bases and 13 dedicated terminals at the world’s major hub ports, Hanjin Shipping is rapidly building its global logistics network.

The client’s outdated Alcatel telecommunications systems, servicing around 50 users across major hub ports in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, were very poorly managed by BTAS.

The Solution

  Hanjin Shipping wanted to implement a more effective and productive telecommunications methodology to save cost and time.
  Negotiations spanned 4 -6 months, during which time numerous solutions were evaluated.
  The client interacted best with the OpenScape Business solution, a package Nk2It offers in collaboration with Unified Communications (UC).

  UCC for Standalone and Multisite environments
  Voice, Presence, Conferencing, Contact Center, Messaging, IM, Mobility, Fax

Customer Benefits

  Platform is scalable with IP, hence the solution supported predicted annual growth of the organisation without requiring hardware change.

Success Factors

  Implementation of the UC system was minimally disruptive, and did not require installation of much additional hardware.
  The comprehensive after-sales technical support provided on behalf of UNIFY through its partner base was greatly appreciated by the client’s IT team.
