SUCCESS STORY
SANT DALMAI
Sant Dalmai S.A.U. was born in 1964 as a project of two friends linked to the world of charcuterie.
Today, 50 years later, Sant Dalmai has a staff of more than 150 employees and has the most advanced technology in traceability and food safety.
It has an industrial area of approximately 12,000 m2.
The challenge
Sant Dalmai had an obsolete analog telephone platform that did not allow it to take full advantage of its business communications. In this context, it needed to migrate its telephony to IP and implement unified communications.
However, making the leap to IP telephony implied taking into consideration a series of conditions specific to a company dedicated to meat production:
- Communication breaks into the factory. In order to produce and maintain the sausages in optimal cold and conservation conditions, the factory walls must be highly insulated from the outside, however, this generates important communication cuts.
“Inside the factory we have no mobile coverage, we can’t use 3G.”
- Need for sturdy terminals in the production plant. The production of sausages involves a handling process that requires highly robust terminals, capable of withstanding humid conditions. The use of smartphones is ruled out.
- Need for IP voice calls in the office. Outside the factory, the objective for the different user profiles, both in the office and those connected via VPN, is to be able to make IP voice calls.
“For an industrial company where there are different types of work, it is very important that each person has the most appropriate and most comfortable communication tool for their work.” “Working with someone who knows all the options and knows how to integrate them is very important. Instel has made it possible”
The solution
Once the needs of Sant Dalmai were gathered, Instel designed a proposal for the migration from analog to IP telephony, through the implementation of a physical telephone platform (On-Premise) that would allow them to continue working with robust terminals in factory, DECT type, and at the same time provide them with all the functionalities of unified communications for office employees (and outside the office).
The elements implemented have been:
- AVAYA IP OFFICE 500 V2 Phone Platform
- Multi-device unified communications licenses: Power User IPO R11
- Trunk Line Licenses (SIP Trunk)
- IP Terminals + licenses for Avaya IP Endpoints (IP Office R10)
- Deployment of DECT Antennas
Currently, Sant Dalmai has a unified communications platform that through the use of a primary channel allows them to make national calls and a trunk link (SIP trunk) for international calls.
Instel has provided consulting, engineering and implementation services for the project.
