Dover Corporation to Implement AT&T Services Across Organization Tweet

Dover Corporation (NYSE: DOV), a multi-billion dollar global portfolio of manufacturing companies providing innovative components and equipment, is working with AT&T* (NYSE: T) to unify and amplify communications services throughout its entire network of operating companies. Under a new five-year contract, Dover will implement a bundled package of AT&T’s voice, unified communications and mobility services to support the organization’s complete overhaul of its corporate telecommunications strategy, which will centralize services across its portfolio of 35 reporting units in the industrial products, engineered systems, fluid management and electronic technologies industries.

“As a global company with numerous partners, we knew we could operate much more efficiently by uniting on one network and utilizing the same key services,” said Marina Trost, Global Supply Chain Manager of Technology for Dover. “Given the diverse needs of our unique operating companies, we needed a provider that could offer a comprehensive package of services to fulfill varying telecom requirements across all of our organizations, and AT&T provided an excellent solution.”

Specifically, Dover will transition current conferencing systems onto AT&T Connect®, which integrates Web, video and voice conferencing onto one company-wide platform, allowing employees throughout Dover’s operating network to attend meetings from around the world, even through their mobile phones. Using this primary IP-based unified communications platform for on-demand, real-time conferencing, Dover and its operating companies will be able to augment inter-office collaboration and simplify training processes.

Meanwhile, using AT&T’s global Wide Area Network (WAN) solution, AT&T Managed Internet Service (MIS) and AT&T voice and mobility services, Dover’s employees and operating companies will have the ability to stay connected to colleagues, partners and customers as needed through virtually any device or platform on AT&T’s network.
