And Ivanti launch telco-first remote eSIM installation for managed Android devices

BT Business and Ivanti have launched what they describe as a “telco world first” for provisioning mobile connectivity on managed Android devices. The new capability installs eSIMs directly from an organization’s Mobile Device Management platform and activates them on-device without physical handling or manual steps. Using a single route, devices either install eSIMs automatically or follow a short installation process, cutting delivery time from days to minutes. The partnership combines Android’s ecosystem, Ivanti’s management tooling, and BT’s mobile expertise to provide a consistent deployment method across large device estates. Announced in Salt Lake City on July 2, 2026, the update targets businesses managing fleets for up to thousands of workers. Ivanti and BT say it enables more secure, remotely managed connectivity and supports future services.
