Vodafone’s global enterprise unit has spurred the company into purchasing two billing companies, namely Quickcomm and TnT Expense Management, both of whom offer billing management services for big businesses running large fleets of mobile devices.

Vodafone global enterprise CEO, Nick Jeffery, said: “Our 570 multinational corporate customers tell us that they want help to reduce cost, increase visibility and improve management control across their global footprint. These acquisitions will benefit our customers by providing even greater visibility and control of their fixed and mobile spend and this, in turn, will further the business case for multinationals to adopt unified communications solutions.”

Vodafone said that Australian-based Quickcomm, which has assets of US$6.9 million, and US-based TnT, which has assets of US$2.8 million, would continue to support and develop their own products at the same time as becoming part of Vodafone’s telecoms management division.
