Within 100 days, ATOM successfully introduced its new brand to the market, restructured its existing services under a new framework, migrated its roaming services to new suppliers, and opened an office in Singapore. These undertakings would normally take about a year, so accomplishing them in such a short time without any disruption to ATOM’s network is a remarkable achievement.
