“Technology today, permits you to complete your key tasks without driving a car, getting in to a bus, waiting in a queue, standing in the hot sun. These were key aspects of our lives not so long ago. Access Telecom Technologies (Pvt) Ltd, provides the key solutions to those businesses serving online consumers who increasingly are becoming internet – savvy, as they rely on performing more of their core functions online using the latest technologies.

What does all this boil down – to …….’it means that more and more businesses are looking forward to using telecom – centric applications as their top choice for being cost effective and staying competitive, as more and more consumers and customers rely on services available through mobile phones and internet, for convenience and efficiency” says Mahendra Kumarasinghe, Director and chief operating officer of Access Telecom Technologies (Pvt) Limited.

From a humble beginning at Lucky Plaza, Access Telecom Technologies (Pvt) Ltd And Access Telecommunication Services (Pvt) Ltd have risen to dizzy heights despite heavy odds – since 1996, and are the benchmark telecommunication solution providers for operators not only in Srilanka but also in some of the overseas markets.

“Today we have a work force of specially trained people working for a wide spectrum of high tech companies relying on specialized services we provide to Telcos” , explained Kumarasinghe.

“Industry leaders such as Eaton of New Zealand, Hawker Enersys of France, Andrew USA are but a few of our foreign principals who have placed faith in our strengths and have been supplying power rectifiers, battery banks and antennas for GSM and 3G sites of leading telecommunication operators in Sri Lanka.

The two telecommunication companies are a division of Access International, our parent company. Whilst Access Telecom Technologies engage in consultancy, and project supplies on indenting basis, Access Telecommunication Services offers local services such as: land and site acquisition; civil construction of towers; installation of GSM, 3G and CDMA base stations, undertake installation services and maintenance of transmission and radio equipment from operators, and undertake introducing and Implementing Value Added Services (VAS).

We are selective in undertaking projects and are honest in our deliverables and that’s because we do a top job every time we undertake a project, he noted. Another interesting point about us is that we do not go by the beaten track; instead we bring out incredibly new ideas from and around the world and help operators meeting their objectives and targets” said Damitha Kariyawasam, Director in-charge of sales & Marketing.

“Our special attention to the growing VAS sector using latest mobile technologies and internet technologies will bring many changes to the Sri Lankan consumers life style. Soon, mobile subscribers will find that they can do a lot of activities typical internet users used to do, easier saving time and money,” he added.

According to him, these new VAS will address some of the burning issues and needs of the SMEs (Small and medium Enterprises) and individuals, and will be made available to them through leading telecommunication operators in Sri Lanka.
