PTT contract win

 

Leeds Bradford Airport chooses Mobile Tornado for critical communications;

Yorkshire's airport is one of the first in Europe to switch to push-to-talk

 

Mobile Tornado (AIM: MBT) a leading provider of resource management mobile
solutions to the enterprise market, announces that Leeds Bradford Airport
("LBA") has entered into an agreement with one of the Company's resellers to
equip its workforce with Mobile Tornado's world-leading technologies for
critical communications.

 

LBA, Yorkshire's largest airport, will be using Mobile Tornado's push-to-talk
over cellular ("PTToC") solutions to provide instant communications with
individuals and groups in a targeted and coordinated way to improve safety,
efficiency and productivity in complex daily operations. The Company
understands that LBA is one of the first airports in Europe to upgrade its
radio system to a PTToC platform. LBA made the move as part of its ongoing
investment programme in people and technology.

 

Mobile Tornado targets sectors that depend on fast, robust and reliable
communications between individuals and groups. The low-cost technologies are
deployed in more than 30 countries worldwide with mobile operators, government
agencies and private enterprises. The Company provides best-in-class, seamless
switching between 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G mobile and WiFi networks and is available
via the latest ruggedized handsets and smartphone application for Android and
iOS operating systems.

 

The contract was won by Storm, a key reseller of Mobile Tornado technologies
and is initially for 200 user licences.

 

Damian Ives, Chief Operating Officer at LBA, said: "We are investing heavily
in people and technology to make sure that passengers have the best possible
experience when travelling through Leeds Bradford Airport.

 

"Mobile Tornado's world-leading technologies will help us to manage operations
and achieve our ambitions. As a regional airport, we plan our development with
the local economy, environment and stakeholders in mind and we are delighted
to be working with Mobile Tornado, a local company with world-leading
technology.

 

"For the first time in its history, LBA will feature 80 destinations
year-round and regular seasonal charters throughout 2023-24."

 

Jeremy Fenn, Chairman and acting CEO of Mobile Tornado, said: "This agreement
with one of the UK's busiest regional airports represents another big vote of
confidence in our push-to-talk over cellular platform as an improved radio
system for critical communications.

 

"As a Yorkshire company with a growing customer base in the UK and Europe, we
are thrilled to be working with LBA and see airports as an important growth
market for Mobile Tornado and Storm."
