ePLDT, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company (PLDT), is the principal corporate vehicle of the PLDT
Group's information and communications technology (ICT) assets and investments. It focuses on enabling ICT infrastructure services that would drive
Internet applications, IP-based services and ensure multimedia content delivery.
ePLDT's vision is to become the Philippines' leading broad-based ICT company, focused on providing the enabling infrastructure and solutions
necessary for the sustainable growth of information technology in the Philippines - data center providing outsourcing services, from e-business
infrastructure to managed services (ePLDT's VITROT Internet Data Center or VitroT); internet service provider that provides internet access using
various last-mile options (Infocom Technologies, Inc or Infocom); call centers that enhance the country's role as provider of outsourced backroom
operations for offshore companies (Vocativ Systems, Inc. and Parlance Systems, Inc.); an IP-based multi-channel contact center infrastructure
providing IT helpdesk support services (iPlus Intelligent Network, Inc or iPlus); internet caf�s that provide shared internet access to the
ordinary Filipinos (Digital Paradise, Inc. or Netopia); digital certificate processing center that enables secure eBusiness transactions
(mySecureSign, Inc. or mSSi); e-Governance projects that aim to utilize technology to make various transactions easier and more convenient for the
Filipino (Stradcom International Holdings, Inc. or Stradcom) and a B2B exchange that is already able to lower procurement costs and enhance supply
chain efficiencies for businesses (BayanTrade Dotcom, Inc. or BayanTrade).
ePLDT's expanded range of products and services will allow it to provide next generation solutions to a largely under-served client base, at a
significant cost advantage over other providers. ePLDT aims to become the preferred infrastructure partner for various ICT services and as such has also established partnerships with technology companies to develop synergies for end-to-end solutions in areas such as application development and
systems integration.
