Client Example
Hogg Robinson originally selected Vanco in 2001 to design, implement and manage its 138 site UK and Ireland network. By 2002, it had added its Nordic network and German data centre to the contract, with Vanco using its VNO model to quickly scale up the solution. After only one year, the telecoms marketplace and Hogg Robinson’s requirements had changed, so Vanco actively redesigned the network, migrating onto an underlying carrier with a lower risk profile, increasing bandwidth and saving 21% on network costs.

This proactive and mutually beneficial relationship was then extended in 2004 to cover Hogg Robinson’s subsidiary sites in Italy and Australia, migrating the sites from legacy networks and creating cost savings of 20% in the process. Meanwhile, the UK network, which had started the relationship, was updated and migrated to a new MPLS network as Hogg Robinson and Vanco together developed a business case for the technology, and the contract was extended by a further three years. Vanco expects to deliver 20% cost savings annually on this solution.
