IBM has announced that VRL Media Ltd. has adopted IBM’s Integrated Managed Services (iMS), an IT solution to operate their newspaper, “Vijayvani”, from ten different locations. Under this 5-year partnership, IBM will manage all infrastructure services to address the IT needs for the newspaper, published in the Kannada language.
It is believed that IBM’s iMS solution enables the newspaper to improve their current level of services, and deliver new offerings with reduced costs. VRL will also be positioned to leverage IBM’s assets such as tools, processes and deep technology skills. Moreover, the solution is also based on a flexible OPEX (Operational Expenditure) model which enables VRL Media to reduce the overall cost for IT implementation, substantially.
“IBM’s solution helps our new media venture immensely. This long-term engagement will not only help us better utilize our IT budget but also continuously improve the technology environment, critical for business growth. IBM takes a holistic approach that involves end-to-end designing and delivering robust technical solutions that are easy to acquire and backed by world-class support,” said Anand Sankeshwar, Managing Director, VRL Media Ltd.
“We are happy to work with the VRL group in creating an integrated and efficient operation. The solution will help VRL to focus more on their core business while establishing a collaborative and innovative computing environment without significant upfront costs,” said Sriram Rajan, Vice-President & Regional Territory Executive, South, IBM India/South Asia.
