CellTrack International

CellTrack International is a private Singaporean headquartered company that works globally to LBS-enable cellular wireless networks worldwide. CellTrack was initially "CellTrack International Ltd.", incorporated in the United Kingdom in 2004 as a JV with Followus Group (www.followus.co.uk), the pioneers of LBS services in the United Kingdom. Outside the United Kingdom, CellTrack claims to serve over 150 Million provisioned subscribers already and expects this number to reach 750 Million subscribers by end 2011. The company's CEO, Mr. Sohail Alavi recently declared his intent to go public on the Singapore Exchange once these numbers reach 1 Billion.

In 2008 CellTrack signed an agreement [1] with a Spanish company Genasys (www.genasys.com) to use their middleware for deployment initially in their test market (Pakistan), before rolling out this platform globally. However, CellTrack subsequently withdrew from this Agreement complaining of breach of contract and poor QoS (Quality of Service) by Genasys, even before the first deployment was commissioned. CellTrack has since developed its own middleware and now uses this in its deployments worldwide, further reducing its per subscriber service delivery costs.
