One of the pioneer satellite communication carriers in the world, Inmarsat announced Tuesday that it will consolidate its subsidiaries to develop a more focused organization that can better align the company's business more closely with core satellite communications markets.
Stratos Global, Segovia and Ship Equip will start using the same brand name, “Inmarsat”, as a part of this organization overhaul. Headed by Jim Parm, Inmarsat Solutions will operate through four major satellite communications business units: Maritime, Government, Government Global and Inmarsat Enterprise. Commercial Services & Support will support this new division by creating cross-business unit services such as customer service, commercial management, marketing communications and channel development.
Inmarsat will uphold its policy of distribution services. The satellite communications firm will keep its independent channel partners which includes resellers and service providers.
