In related industry news, Fujitsu (News - Alert) Services, one of the leading IT services companies in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, may have more than 30 years of experience in designing, building, and operating IT systems for customers in the financial services, telecom, retail, utilities and government markets, but the company still had a problem that it needed fixing.

In an effort to improve service and increase efficiencies, Fujitsu was looking for a way to reduce the manual workload associated with designing the network reconfiguration for problem scenarios and validating their designs for performance and availability in a broad range of scenarios. Without an automation solution, Fujitsu officials frequently had to spend time redesigning and reconfiguring networks, a process that was oftentimes tedious and prone to producing errors. Fujitsu officials wanted to find a better way to rework the networks and provide improved services for customers.

Their quest for help led them to OPNET Technologies (News - Alert), a provider of network diagramming solutions.
