| |  http://www.polenet.ru | | | The Joint-Stock Company "Complex telecommunication systems" known in the communication market of Kuzbass under the trade mark "POLENET" had another year of successful work.
Within the year 2003 the company managed integration of data network in Siberia and expanded on to Novosibirsk and Altai.
Years of work showed that development of the company is gaining momentum which ensured the company"s leading position among Siberian alternative operators offering telecommunication services. | | | Our success today is of course the corporate sector and its service.
It is due to the fact, that large-scale industry, manufacture, trading networks, banks are more dependent on information streams and consequently cooperate more actively in comparison with small business in construction of their own data networks. However we mind the future and we realize, that in the years to come our priorities will vary for the benefit small and average business as analytics forecast that basic growth of the data transmission market is still ahead and will be doubled annually within the next 5 years for the account of this sector. Today we already began preparing for similar business management.
Top-managers of the company accept the program of decentralization of business which is reduced to formation of points of presence not only at the regional centres, but also on the periphery.
According to these actions since the late summer early autumn of 2003 an affiliate network of the company intended to respond to any local customers" enquiries is being formed operatively. | | | The decision an affiliate network organization of the company is explained not only by natural growth of the market of data transfer, but also by the launching of the new generation cellular communication of CDMA-2000 which can provide additional growth of subscribers" base.
Due to the start of the project "SkyNet" and its network connection to POLENET even a regular user got an opportunity to have the allocated data link.
Thus it has a number of obvious advantages: cost of connection is equal to cost of the terminal and comprises "two one" - a cellular telephone and radio modem; there is no necessity to pay a user"s fee; it is not necessary to carry out installation works as in the case of the allocated channels and ADSL technologies; access to the Internet becomes possible in any area; the width of the channel is limited only to technical opportunities of the exploited terminal and in the near future can reach the frequency of as much as 2 Mbsec.
Thus, the merge of SkyNet and POLENET networks made up the technological and marketing tandem with the intent to bypass operators of communication, providing the allocated channel with the help medi and ADSL technologies alone. Therefore, in 2004 we hope to see at our offices some thousands of new clients who would need mobile Internet, the allocated data link and opportunity of VPN (virtual private network) organization. | | | In 2003 we proved that besides providing data transmission services, we can also be the company of system integration with a full range of modern technologies for settling the most complicated businesses and tasks.
Among the most interesting and at the same time difficult tasks are the following: we won the tender and provided connection to the World Web for Kemerovo and Regional Administrations; we constructed a data network and IP-telephonies for one of the leading companies in the coal-mining market of Russia - "BELON" that made possible the connection among its divisions over Kuzbass and out to Novosibirsk; we created a corporate data network for the Holding Company of "Kuzbassrazrezugol" which helped connect the central office of the company in Kemerovo to the six mining-sections in the area;
such industrial giants of Kuzbass as "West-Siberian Metallurgical Works", "Novokuznetsk Metallurgical Works", "Khimvolokno","Kuzbassenergo", Kemerovo International Airport were provided with IP-Telephony; we developed the circuit and organized connections over more than 20 bank machines for "Kuzbassugol"bank", "Gutabank", "Sberbank", "лDл Bank"; we organized in Kemerovo region a data network for the system of "KORA" supermarkets.
At last, income rates of corporate projects on radio access increased almost in 7 times. | | |  However Polenet"s business is not restricted to corporate decisions. Besides them we have our approach retail clients.
For this reason the Joint-Stock Company "CTS" does not only maintain a team of managers actively working on attraction of clients in the retail market, but, with the help of its own programmers the company developed and launched the retail trading network of multiservice card payment platform from Polenet and commissioned new billing system for IP-telephony and Dial-UP. | | | Thanks to such an approach to retails clients of the company entered the simplified way of payment for all available services and the opportunity to reduce the time of connection to IP-telephony and the Internet with the help of the modem.
The advanced dealer network offers an opportunity of purchasing cards any place which renders Polenet more popular and facilitates penetration of the company onto the market of other cities. | | | In 2003 the company"s technical divisions made possible the connection to a general purpose telephone system site of data transmission for Altai (Barnaul), Belovo, Kemerovo, Kiselevsk, Yurga, Kedrovka.
Thus the generated system of sales allowed the company to receive income immediately after the installation of the nodes. | | | | Thanks to it the end of 2003 was marked by the regular use of our services which added up to about 4 thousand retail subscribers. Taking into account that Polenet is a wholesale communication services trader that provides connection services to other large corporations and operators, such as "Corporation OSS" (Moscow), the Joint-Stock Company "Equant" (Novosibirsk), "RIKT" (Mezhdurechensk), "Yurgatelecom" (Yurga), "Communication" (Prokopevsk) etc., the average number of Polenet subscribers will soon hit 10 000. | | | These figures stand for the company"s further penetration onto the new markets in 2004.
It is scheduled to install about nine base stations (six in Kemerovo, two in Novosibirsk and one in Altai), with affiliate companies starting which should accordingly double the number of subscribers.
It has been a year since Polenet entered on the market of West Siberian centre - Novosibirsk.
In the course of this period the connection of Polenet network data transmission site to a general purpose telephone system of Novosibirsk was regional established which provided communication with such large operators "Zapsibtranstelecom", "RTKCom.RU", Joint-Stock Company "Equant"; we arrived to an agreement on traffic interchange with large regional operators; we launched the equipment of radio-access to the Internet on the frequency of 3,5 GHz; construction of the backbone fiber optic communication line is started; we almost managed to cover the whole city establishing connections to all important telecommunication objects.
Today we work on the promotion of IP-telephony from Polenet and preparation for card platform advanced payment communication services.
Participation in "Sibsvjaz-2003" which took place in Novosibirsk September, 23-26 proved the company a system integrator.
At the exhibition detailed outline of the project on organization of the allocated channel by means of Skynet and Polenet network integration, and 3G technology receiving the Small Gold Medal and Diploma of Siberian Fair were introduced. | | |  Our clients trust is our major achievement. Each client is an individual to us;
we regard clients as partners making business with us.
One of the basic marketing advantages of our company in the market is granting our clients the service of IP-telephony costing 2-2,5 times cheaper similar services of other operators.
The enterprises and private citizens already appreciated economic benefit of transition to IP-telephony.
The company"s incomes increased in more than three times in this sector in comparison with 2002, as is seen on the diagram, which is to its sheer advantage.
Besides, we mind the fact that Kemerovo citizens need inexpensive and good-quality communication, so in 2003 international and trunk call public telephone booths were launched into operation in Leninsk-Kuznetsk, Osinniki and Kemerovo. | | | In 2003 POLENET was developing the course of WEB-design and WEB-hosting introducing corporate web-sites for prospective operators of mobile communication in Kemerovo, such as the Joint-Stock Company "Mobicom-Siberia" (www.megafonsib.ru) and the Joint-Stock Company "Kuzbass Cellular communication" of the new 3G standard under the trade mark of SkyNet (www.skynet-3g.ru).
Based on SkyNet and the Megaphone resources modelling variants of WAP portals and the new 2004 technology of content providing were developed by POLENET. | | | IP-telephony income growth
|  | | | Summing up the results of 2003 it is important to note, that since 2001 increase of the company"s incomes for the granted services made more than 300% per year.
Growth of incomes in the sphere of communication in Russia for the period of 2001-2003 did not exceed 30-40% per year on average.
It is also very significant that such prompt development of the company became possible not only through actual demand for the provided services of data transmission, but also due to the electronic management systems of the company, flexible HR policy, well-trained team members and modern business methods.
The proceeds on the company grew 4 times on average as against to the last year, which is due to the fact that Polenet confidently demonstrated the successful outcome of its work both in Kuzbass, and in Novosibirsk.
There was an obvious redistribution of income sources: the company"s proceeds came basically from realization of large corporate projects and IP-telephony. | | | | In the coming 2004 we set to ourselves the following grandiose tasks that will render Polenet the indisputable leader in system integration and good quality multi-function data and communication network services in the market of Kuzbass, Novosibirsk and Altai. | | | Leased lines income growth
