Harvinder Cheema of MobileComm

USTa digital transformation solutions company, has acquired MobileComm, a global telecom engineering firm with over 21 years of experience in telecommunications and wireless engineering services. The acquisition of Dallas-based Mobilecomm and integration of its over 1300 employees will expand UST’s telecommunications practice and position the company to continue building upon its growth in this dynamic sector.

MobileComm was founded in 2002 and operates across the US, India, and Canada. Its experienced team of experts brings a diverse set of capabilities in wireless engineering. For 21 years, MobileComm has supported some of communications service providers (CSPs) for a range of initiatives, including wireless network modernisation, 5G network rollout, network performance enhancement, RF engineering, private cellular networks, and Open RAN.

As telco workloads move to the cloud and open networks standardise, managing complex multi-vendor, multi-technology, and multi-cloud networks have become increasingly critical to success. This acquisition will enable UST to merge its experience in cloud and devsecops with MobileComm’s wireless engineering capabilities, providing offerings for Communications Service Provider (CSP) customers. Furthermore, by combining UST’s domain skills in other key verticals with Mobilecomm’s wireless engineering expertise, UST can bring industry-curated 5G (private cellular) use cases, providing new monetisation opportunities to CSPs. Adding these capabilities to UST’s already strong telecommunications division positions the company to deepen existing client relationships while expanding its global client base.

“We are proud to announce the acquisition of MobileComm. We believe this strategic move will further empower UST to continue developing our wide range of compelling solutions in the telecommunications sector. We are now better positioned to leverage our existing technologies and client relationships to expand the scope of our offerings and deliver bespoke solutions that accelerate digital transformation. UST will build upon this momentum by continuing to invest in the network engineering space,” says Aravind Nandanan, general manager, telecommunications, UST.

“UST has earned a reputation as a key driver of innovation across a number of sectors, and we are excited to join them as we look to leverage the assets and experience of MobileComm to continue building on UST’s success in the telecommunications industry,” says Harvinder Cheema, chief executive officer, MobileComm.
