Grange Hotels, The Big Idea - "Now we're
talking"
Cast your eyes over the five-star facilities at the Grange St
Paul's and you'll notice a host of sophisticated communications,
courtesy of Britannic Technologies, who were charged with the task
of creating the flagship hotel's bespoke communications
infrastructure.
IT plays a major role in ensuring that guests enjoy a hi-tech,
low-stress stay, and the hotel's advanced ICT network provides easy
access to the wide range of amenities on offer, incorporating Voice
over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and enabling wi-fi for voice and data
use.
"As our engineers for a future-proof, fully converged IP and SIP
solution at the Grange St Paul's, Britannic Technologies provided
us with excellent design, installation, service and support," says
Steve Waldron, financial director for Grange Hotels. "Britannic
Technologies applied the economies of convergence to both future
developments and elements of the existing group."
When it comes to mobile IT, video conferencing, video streaming
and access to
hosted services, guests have ever-increasing expectations, and the
hotel's telephones, which incorporate touch-screen technology,
provide each guest with customised information and services. The
communications hub delivers voice and data services across the
hotel group and VoIP enables free calls between sites.
Thanks to Britannic Technologies, Grange Hotels has a solid
foundation for years to come, with a host of intelligent features,
high-speed access to every port and the ability to provide a
sophisticated communications system well into the future.

To blow the January cobwebs away, ComputerTel and Britannic
Technologies entered the Telecommunications Go Karting Endurance
Challenge at TeamSport Indoor Karting, Crawley on 12th
January.
The event was well received and a manic time was had by all!
Reaching speeds of up to 40 miles an hour, The "Britannic Maniacs"
and "The High Flyers" took on another 8 teams from the Telecomms
sector, to challenge each-other for poll position.
As an endurance event, all teams raced for an hour and a half to
see who could complete the furthest distance. The Maniacs and The
Flyers put up a good challenge, especially The Maniacs who were
even leading at one point in the competition.
Our team members all vowed to meet again for a re-run next
year.
