Brightstar, a wireless distribution and supply chain solutions company, and Kodiak Networks have launched a partnership for the global distribution of Push to Talk (PTT)-enabled devices with Kodiak Advanced Voice Services (AVS) functionality. Under the terms of the distribution agreement, Brightstar will procure original equipment manufacturer (OEM) devices for wireless operators that are PTT-capable and include the suite of Kodiak AVS applications including real-time availability, group conferencing, instant voice messaging and the ability to convert a PTT conversation to a full-duplex, cellular call. This relationship will leverage the handset development partnerships that Kodiak has already established with leading handset OEMs, which includes the integration of the Kodiak AVS client, testing and technical.support to bring these devices to market. Brightstar and Kodiak will work directly with OEMs to develop handset product roadmaps and ensure that a rich choice of handsets with the Kodiak AVS client are offered to Kodiak’s existing and prospective operator customers.
