RSSTribold launches US operation at TeleManagement World, Dallas
31 October 2005
Tribold, the UK-based product lifecycle management software developer, is to launch its US operation at the TeleManagement Forum World conference in Dallas. Tribold enables communications service providers (CSPs) to reduce the time to market of their products by up to 12 months.
Tribold will be exhibiting at the TeleManagement World exhibition in Dallas, Texas, (7–10 November, 2005) where on 9 November at 10:45 the company’s co-founder and Chief Technology Officer (CTO), Catherine Michel, will be sharing a speaker podium with leading management consultant firm, McKinsey. Delegates will be able to hear about how to cut the complexity of bringing new products and services to market, speeding up their offerings and stealing a march on the competition.
Tribold has already engaged with clients in the US, but TeleManagement World officially marks its arrival in the North American market. Tribold will be showcasing the capabilities of its flagship Product Portfolio Manager™ software, complete with customer case studies.
“The communications industry is changing – and fast. CSPs are becoming retailers in their own right, with the same level of commoditisation that we would traditionally associate with the fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) market,” said Simon Muderack, CEO of Tribold. “TeleManagement World offers product managers to come and talk to us about how to bring products to market quicker and attain complete visibility over the lifecycle of their products from inception to retirement. We see incredible potential for growth in this market among North American providers.”

“In such a cutthroat market as the communications sector, never has it been more essential to remain one step ahead of the competition and drive new products to customers. Tribold Product Portfolio Manager empowers communications providers to deliver this,” Mr Muderack said.
