    HUNGARY'S MATAV AWARDS NOMS PROJECT TO DIGITAL
    
    The Hungarian telecommunications company MATAV has experienced  
    substantial growth since industry privatization began.  In the 
    last five years, the number of MATAV's telephone service 
    subscribers has doubled to more than two million and its annual 
    revenue has grown to over $700M.
    
    At the same time, competition has escalated, decisions have to be 
    made faster, and the company must prepare for the next stage of 
    privatization.  MATAV needed a modern Network Operations and 
    Management System (NOMS) that could handle an increasingly complex 
    and still growing network environment.
    
    MATAV is implementing its NOMS project in two separate but related 
    projects.  DIGITAL Hungary has won the Switch Related Network 
    Operation and Management System--covering switch management, 
    network traffic management, and signaling system 7 (SS7) 
    management--against competition from TTI Team Telecom, IBM, 
    Ericsson, Siemens, SEMA Group, and Nortel. (The Transmission 
    Related Network Operation and Management System will be 
    implemented in the second project.) 
    
    The total DIGITAL solution is valued at about $16M, of which $2.9M 
    represents DIGITAL services.  MATAV chose DIGITAL because its 
    combination of technology and services satisfied the company's 
    business needs as well as its technical requirements.
    
    The DIGITAL solution is based on a TeMIP platform that controls 
    the switch-related portion of MATAV's whole multivendor network.  
    It includes 29 high-performance AlphaServer 4100, 1000A, and 300 
    systems; 70 Venturis workstations; 150 network devices; DIGITAL 
    UNIX and Windows NT; and other DIGITAL and third-party software.  
    
    The DIGITAL services purchased include network, systems 
    integration, project and system management, installation and 
    maintenance, and training services.
