Emerson Network Power appoints Raymund Mendoza as Business Development Director for Telecoms in the Philippines

MANILA, PHILIPPINES September 14, 2009 – Emerson Network Power, a business of Emerson (NYSE:EMR) and the global leader in enabling Business-Critical Continuity™ announced the appointment of Raymund Mendoza as director business development for its telecom business in the Philippines.  With more than 19 years of experience in the telecom industry, Mendoza brings with him an exceptional sales track record, a keen understanding of industry issues and a close affinity with Emerson Network Power’s customers and their business challenges in a highly competitive market. “The telco market is very fragmented in that many organizations source their technology – DC power, precision cooling, power protection and so on – from different suppliers,” says Mendoza. “This can result in inefficiencies across the network, not to mention poor economies of scale from low-volume purchases, multiple maintenance contracts and suppliers working to different schedules and service level agreements.” “My job is to help our customers identify and eliminate these inefficiencies – to provide them with end-to-end solutions that make better use of their budgets and improve the ROI for their business,” he says. “We can do that by introducing network-wide management and control systems that help lower operating expenditure and reduce long-term capital expenditure, not only on new equipment and infrastructure but also from markedly reduced energy bills.” Mendoza has held senior management positions in Comverse Network Systems and Alan Dick Philippines Corporation and holds a bachelor’s degree in electronics and communication engineering from Central Colleges of the Philippines.
