The merger of Backbone, Suntel Czech and Arbor brings a wider range of services and greater transparency for customers
This June, Backbone, Suntel Czech and Arbor completed the merger of their companies.
The merged company will operate as Suntel from 1 July 2024. It will continue all three firms’ existing activities helping customers to build, modernise and maintain telecommunications networks in Germany, Czechia, Austria and other European countries.
This merger, which has been in the pipeline for nearly two years, is a big step for the three companies. “We see the merger as a way to generate opportunities and enter a new phase of growth and increased competitiveness in the telecommunications market,” says Michal Mrázek, Managing Director, explaining the reasons why the firms came together.
The Suntel brand now unites a large professional staff with the experience, know-how and resources to offer wide-ranging high-quality services in the telecommunications, infrastructure development and energy sectors.
Key points of the merger:
- By merging, the firms have created a strong team under the unified Suntel brand, which will enable them to better meet their customers’ needs and respond to developments in the market.
- By bringing together the employees from all three firms, it will allow more efficient transfer of telecommunications experience and know-how built up over many years, to provide a wider range of services and innovative solutions.
- The organisation structure will become more transparent, without changing the composition of management, project teams or any other personnel changes.
- The aim is to create a harmonious and dynamic team with a common mission: “A more accommodating approach and better technical maturity.”
“Two years of gradual measures to harmonise our working practices and corporate cultures has enabled us to complete our merger without any changes in operations or staffing. All the project teams remain with the same composition and our customers will notice almost no fundamental changes,” says Chief Operating Officer Rudolf Koláčný.
“We believe that bringing together such a strong team of high-quality people will bring many benefits for our customers, employees and shareholders,” Suntel’s management concludes.
