“We are honoured by this distinction of the GSM Association for the CCSQM solution and for the original nature of its focus on the client” enhanced Carlos Macahdo, TMN Network Quality Control Manager as to this award that acknowledges tmn’s effort in affording quality service.  He added that “the Tektronix Unified assurance platform allowed for a more efficient system in the assessment of service performance.  It is yet another decisive tool to attain our first objective as a company:  our clients’ satisfaction.  This is one more step towards Total Quality”.

With the aim of encouraging innovation, the GSM Awards distinguish for the 11th consecutive year the best products and services of worldwide mobile operators.  This year’s award received by TMN was announced and presented yesterday within the scope of the 3GSM world conference taking place in Barcelona.
