Siterra Supports Helios Towers' Rapid Tower Development In Nigeria

Leading African Tower Company, Helios Towers, Chooses Siterra to Deliver Operational Excellence

San Francisco, Calif., September 21, 2009 — Siterra, the leading provider of web-based software designed to manage geographically-distributed capital asset programs announced that rapidly-growing African tower company, Helios Towers, has chosen Siterra+ to manage the development of new telecommunications towers in Nigeria.

"When we searched for software for managing our tower projects in Nigeria, we quickly discovered that the Siterra solution performed all the key functions we needed, and more," said Thomas Sule, Chief Strategy Officer of Helios Towers. "Siterra has been responsive to our needs as a foreign company, ensuring that our implementation went smoothly and quickly."

Africa, and Nigeria in particular, represents a tremendous opportunity for the expansion of wireless telecommunications infrastructure. However, tower companies must contend with an extraordinary level of complexity in their efforts to simultaneously develop many new sites, across multiple geographies, with the cooperation of many different contractors and vendors. Siterra helps keep these projects on track and within budget using a robust set of workflow-driven collaboration tools for task execution, reporting, document control, asset tracking, and lease management.

"We were pleased to have been selected as a technology partner for Helios Towers," said Bernard Fried, CEO of Siterra. "We are confident that our flagship product, Siterra+, will help Helios meet its business goals of building out a world-class wireless infrastructure network both in the rapidly-growing Nigerian market as well as the central African continent."

Providing seamless integration and advanced workflow-driven capabilities, Siterra+'s four product modules consist of:

Projects - A full-featured, workflow-driven project management system that coordinates all site-related activities such as site selection, build-outs, and ongoing maintenance.
Assets - Siterra users can track and maintain all assets associated with an operating site and integrate asset data with their enterprise financial and other operations support systems.
Data | Documents | Photos - A centralized online repository for all operational site related data, custom forms, documents, and photos.
Leases - Complete lease management capabilities that integrate with internal and external financial systems to automate and streamline lease billings and payments, monitoring of critical dates, and maintaining financial regulatory compliance.
