Case Study: Stephenson Harwood achieves secure, low-latency global collaboration with NTT Global Networks (Arcstar Universal One)

NTT delivers global network for an international law firm

Stephenson Harwood, a full‑service international law firm with over 120 partners and 700 staff, needed to reliably and securely share documents and collaborate across global offices with low latency. To meet these requirements they turned to NTT Global Networks, using its Arcstar Universal One / fully‑managed MPLS service to provide a single, experienced supplier with the global infrastructure and land‑based routes required between Europe and Asia.

NTT Global Networks implemented a land‑based, fully managed MPLS network connecting seven offices across Europe and Asia, with IP steering for optimal low‑latency routing and local office networks for resilience. The result is faster file access, more efficient collaboration on complex, large‑scale matters, improved visibility of team output and quicker client response times, while reducing the operational impact of network outages.
