Omnitrol Networks, a provider of application network platforms, has entered into a strategic relationship with BT Global Services, a provider of networked IT services.
According to Omnitrol Networks, the collaboration is expected to enable BT supply chain services to deliver enhanced and scalable supply-chain, asset and operational visibility services utilising next-generation radio frequency identification (RFID), wireless and sensor technologies based on the Omnitrol Networks platform.

We are privileged to be selected by BT Global Services, whose agile approach toward innovation is enabling the rapid adoption of global traceability services and solutions for tracking assets and supply-chains, optimizing business performance and improving overall customer satisfaction.
Keith Sherry, GM of BT Supply Chain Solutions, said: This will enable our customers to benefit from significant operational efficiency improvements, with the potential to reduce operating costs; improve real-time visibility of their products & reusable assets, and increase accuracy of order fulfillment resulting in improved customer service — all of which contribute to gaining and retaining competitive advantage.”
