READING, U.K. -- Axiom Systems Ltd, a provider of software for the design and delivery of broadband and IP services, today announced a landmark global framework agreement with one of the world's largest service providers, Cable and Wireless.

Cable & Wireless, which has the UK's second largest network infrastructure, has adopted the award-winning AXIOSSR technology in order to shift to Next Generation Networks and a single, integrated and versatile IP based platform.

The multi-million pound deal will see the Axiom Systems AXIOSS(R), used to design and deliver services such as IPVPN, Metro Ethernet and VoIP. Their current IPVPN OSS systems will be replaced by AXIOSS and new systems and processes will be created to launch next generation IP services.

Gareth Senior, Chief Executive Officer at Axiom Systems said, "Given the size of the Cable and Wireless network, they required a solution with a holistic approach, which caters for a number of different services; differing types of technology; and which works across a number of different countries. AXIOSS solves this problem, whilst offering the ability to design new services as and when the market requires it."

This implementation will offer a number of benefits to Cable and Wireless:

Mr Senior continues, "By joining us as a customer, Cable and Wireless has further cemented AXiOSS as the leading service design and provisioning solution and further boosts the reputation of our company in terms of market innovation and leadership. Axiom System's business has seen significant growth over the past two years and our customer base demonstrates the Suite's success at meeting the needs of today's competitive market."
