21 January 2016
March IT, the leading supplier of reliable, high-speed, city-grade Telecommunications in the Surat Basin, today announced the launch of MarchConnect™ and the expansion of its extensive Fixed Wireless network coverage throughout the QGC Charlie project area. MarchConnect™ provides businesses with improved productivity compared to Satellite and 3G data services, increased reliability for office technologies such as VPN, VoIP telephony, Skype, FaceTime and internet browsing, mobility through enterprise-grade Wi-Fi solutions, security to block potentially illegal peer-to-peer downloads, and the certainty of an unlimited data allowance and no long term contract.
“Having worked extensively with companies throughout the Surat Basin, we understand the unique challenges they face in keeping safety and productivity in balance. Without reliable communications it’s almost impossible”, says Director – Business Development of March IT, Geoff Marsh. “We’re thrilled that MarchConnect™ will contribute to the safe and efficient completion of works throughout the QGC Charlie project area and keep workers connected to their friends and families back home.”
March IT has provided communications for almost 4,000 CSG workers to date, delivering nearly 600Mbps to sites between Dalby and Injune since 2013. Working with Australian and international clients such as Origin Energy, Laing O’Rourke, Monadelphous Engineering, CPB Contractors (formerly Leighton Contractors), Hutchinson Builders and East Coast Pipeline, March IT has been relied on for timely delivery of services, flexibility, innovation and providing significant cost savings.
Paul Torrisi, CEO of March IT added, “The initial product rollout is targeted for businesses operating on the QGC Charlie project, where communications are limited to highly congested 3G and low-speed satellite services. MarchConnect™ services are being made available from 27th January 2016 and we have already begun scheduling installation appointments for the launch.”
Businesses operating anywhere in the Surat Basin can contact the March IT sales team to check availability and book installations by calling 1300 MarchIT (1300 627 244) today.
