Pune – November 11 th , 2025: Tech Mahindra (NSE: TECHM), a leading global provider of
technology consulting and digital solutions to enterprises across industries, today announced
a licensing agreement with AT&T for its proprietary Automated Network Testing (ANT) and
Open Tool platforms. These applications deliver an advanced platform designed to transform
network testing and certification across Long Term Evolution (LTE), 5G Non-Standalone
(NSA), and 5G Standalone (SA) domains.
Tech Mahindra will integrate the ANT and Open Tool into its suite of telecommunications
solutions, which will empower Communication Service Providers (CSPs) to conduct network
health checks, connectivity tests, and debugging with unprecedented speed and precision,
ensuring a robust and reliable network for the customers. The ANT platform provides a user-
friendly graphical interface, a robust test execution engine, and an automated backend to
simplify test execution and validation of networks. It acts as an orchestrator, seamlessly
integrating with multiple external industry traffic generation tools.
Manish Mangal, President and Head – Americas Communication Business, Tech
Mahindra, said, “Networks have become the invisible lifeline of our digital society, every
innovation, every human connection, every leap forward depends on them. In an era of
unprecedented technological change, maintaining network reliability requires testing at
equally unprecedented speed and scale. Integrating these AT&T applications enables us to
reimagine network reliability in the AI-native era, providing global telecom operators with a
highly automated solution for end-to-end network testing and certification.”
The licensing agreement represents a significant milestone in an ongoing collaboration
between Tech Mahindra and AT&T, showcasing their shared commitment to innovation in the
telecommunications sector. A key component of this platform is the Open Tool, a versatile
data and voice traffic simulation tool developed by AT&T. This tool is crucial for certifying and validating the functionality and connectivity of the mobile packet core network in both lab and
production environments.
Kelly Marlar, Vice President and Managing Director of AT&T Intellectual Property, LLC,
said, “This licensing agreement highlights AT&T’s dedication to innovation and the value of
our technology development. Licensing relationships like the one with Tech Mahindra
transform our investments into new growth opportunities for AT&T, our licensees, and the
industry. By working closely with trusted third parties, AT&T Intellectual Property helps
accelerate innovation, drive new revenue streams, and bring proven solutions to market
faster. This agreement is a strong example of how our technology licensing program is open
for business, and we look forward to collaborating with more companies to deliver value and
advance the industry together.”
As part of this agreement, Tech Mahindra will now offer this proven solution to wireless
providers in global markets where AT&T does not operate. This license aligns with Tech
Mahindra’s focus on enhancing and scaling customer service for global telecom providers
with advanced telecommunication technologies. With a strong presence in the telecom
industry and over 250 customers across 90 countries, Tech Mahindra is a trusted
transformation partner with leading capabilities in network engineering and simplifying
