  4. BSNL’s WiMAX Projects • 1st phase rural project -2000 BST ( Gemini, Huawei) • First Urban WiMAX project for Kerala and Punjab- 1800 BST (Huawei,Telsima) • 2nd phase rural tender – 7000 BST (total estimated for WiMax BST only over USD100M • All projects are E2E full turn key , including technical support for 5 years after warranty • Rural project intends to provide broadband connectivity to Rural India • Locations with poor infrastructure and in many cases geographically remote • Local Partner is a must!

  5. How did we select our Partner? • Current activity in BSNL and success rate in BSNL tenders • Presence in Delhi • Ability to execute complicated projects • Financially stable company • Agreed MOU to be signed before tender, includes: • Financials terms • Responsibilities of each Party during the tender process, project implementation, support during the project life cycle • Final contract will be based on MOU agreed terms

  6. Tendering Process (1) • Alvarion lost earlier BSNL WiMAX tender due to Indoor BST price (2008 tender) • Discussion with BSNL to modify the spec so it can suit our Outdoor BST • Tender release, vendors meeting and tender clarifications, submission (25.8.2009) • Tender technical evaluation by BSNL ( technical compliance) • Bid price opening and bid price evaluation

  7. Tendering Process (2) • Bid price results: • Aster, India &Runcom – Israelrejected due to no Wave-2 certificate • In order to get the PO from BSNL , the price of L2,3,4 should be reduced to L1 price

  8. Tender Award • LOI was issued by BSNL on late 2009 . In order to get the PO, bidder should open the PBG. • Gemini- got the LOI • ZTE – got the LOI • ICOMM – got the LOI • VMC – no LOI was issued • Some legal issues related to custom declaration in other projects were raised against VMC. This put our project on hold . • BSNL can’t issue the LOI as long as there is an open investigation. • L5 (Spanco) did its outmost to get the LOI instead of VMC. • Issue was resolved at 2010 year end and LOI was issued to VMC.

  14. Next Plans • Possibly more orders as Gemini did not supply all quantity • Spectrum issues • TD LTE • Good bond with VMC • Further business with VMC. Wi-Fi projects, Video Surveillance projects • VMC can be a good partner for DAS.

  15. Lessons Learned • Know the customer, their roll, requirements, people • Know your Partner • Do not rely only on your Partner- have direct channels to the customer • Conflict of interest with the Partner (bid control) • Define responsibilities properly. Commit to what we can deliver (contract) • Do not leave the Partner by himself – do more than what is committed • As a supplier of major project components, make sure that the project is successful
