Open’s SmartFlex solution will allow LoJack Argentina to develop integrated and flexible business strategies, making it easier to prepare adequate offers that meet the requirements for its currently more than 330 thousand administered customers.

"LoJack not only represents Open reinforcement in the Argentinean market but also the evolution of our SmartFlex solution, based on over 20 years of experience and specialization on the utilities and telecommunication companies’ needs,” commented Hernando Parrott ,Open International Vice President.

“For these utilities and telecommunication companies, the business dynamics requires great flexibility in the business processes and in the client services; this way, Open participates in the vehicular security industry as the best option to that kind of business," explained the executive.

“Being market leaders, obvious differentials and benefits are offered by us to the customers acquiring our services. This is only possible if we count on a flexible and stable information system, such as SmartFlex, that supports the benefits offered to our customers. The choice of SmartFlex was due to the security given by its expertise in repetitive billing and also because we can take advantage of its multiple services know how. Its model supports the convergence we wish to offer to our clients in Argentina," pointed out Luis Lonardi.

SmartFlex multiservice platform and its emphasis on the needs of Latin America’s service companies that use repetitive billing provide to companies such as LoJack a business model, which integrates guidance to the service’s clients and end users, the improvement and internal efficiency to render the service, and the approach on development and new services the Argentinean company may be able to generate.
