The Bosnian incumbent BH Telecom has signed a five-year collaboration agreement with Slovenia-based Beenius.
According to Beenius, BH Telecom announced an international tender as it was looking for novel and updated solutions for its IPTV and OTT services. Beenius applied for the tender with its interactive TV platform for Android TV and novel functionalities. The aim was to deliver and integrate modern TV platforms to evolve the current ecosystem that would serve them for the next five years.
Beenius won the tender with an interactive TV platform that supports advanced features such as targeted TV advertising and fingerprinting. The platform enables the reuse of the current IPTV licences ecosystem, which significantly benefited other applicants.
The ecosystem offered by Beenius included the collaboration of other value-added partners such as Verimatrix, Edgeware and Harmonic. Beenius performed the media systems integration on the project and enabled the successful deployment of Verimatrix’s VCAS Ultra V4.3, Edgeware’s CDN together with its new management system, and Harmonic’s mosaic and ad insertion system.
BH Telecom opted for the referenced partners due to their robustness of technologies and the pre-integration that Beenius already has in place.
Commenting on the development, Filip Remškar, CEO at Beenius, said: “It is a great privilege working with an operator such as BH Telecom, who is a leader in the field of telecommunication in South Eastern Europe. Beenius accepted all the challenges that BH Telecom introduced and worked hard to meet its viewers’ requirements. We are looking forward to all the projects that the future waits for us”.
