Project Overview In an International Procurement Bid, Computer Point state of the art solution for a comprehensive ICT platform for multi-service information sharing turn-key project design emerged the ultimate choice for the GTZ funded National Water & Sewerage Corporation Information Communication System. The solution encompassed a turn-key deployment involving networking all country wide 16-Area Offices to their Head-office in Kampala. The solution also invoked the first national deployment of a comprehensive management platform using the world renowned HP Open View that enables proactive reporting and management of NWSC SLAs.


The solution also deployed a country-wide Voice over IP enabled network to reduce overheads in terms of inter office voice traffic. The solution provides support of both Voice and Data in a multi-service converged Voice and Data involvement with versatile routing and Quality of Service algorithms on a Cisco AVVID architecture.

The solution is also one of the maiden Krone Highband installations for structured connectivity. Our squadron of qualified (certified) engineers deployed the solution in all the country area offices in a record 30 day implementation period.

Business automation at NWSC also invoked user application deployment of the UNIX based Castimer Billing application, SCALA Accounting System and Lotus Notes Messaging platform.
The solution is supported on a Frame Relay platform provided by Uganda Telecom with a Cisco Routing platform for inter-office connectivity. Internet access to the entire WAN is supported securely through a Cisco PIX Firewall in a tight NAT configuration.
