'One-stop-shop' optimises Orga Systems' billing and CRM
The launch of a long-term, one-stop-shop initiative to optimise telecom operators' entire
billing and CRM processes has been announced by Orga Systems, a leading provider of convergent real-time billing. This end-to-end solution includes Orga Systems' billing system and
pre-integrated products from worldwide leaders in software for the
IT/billing field.
Pre-integrated for Customer Relationship Management
(CRM) is Selligent's solution. All bill handling requirements are
covered by Group 1 Software. Business Objects takes care of the
reporting demands. WeDo technologies complements the concept in
regards to TAP roaming, and Basset Labs completes the solution package
with interconnect billing. Additional partners will follow soon.
Through the
pre-integration of individual benchmark products, telecom
service providers benefit from an end-to-end solution. Professional services
for consulting, solution design and software integration round off the
package.
Rainer Neumann, CEO of Orga Systems GmbH, said:"With our one-stop-shop solution we offer telecommunication
providers the possibility of covering all areas of the billing chain
with us as a central partner. With the flexibility of the Orga Systems
Convergence Program, we are able to provide end-to-end solutions, or
offer modular solution packages that allow a step-by-step system
integration. With this program, we are taking an innovative approach
that is ready to meet the needs and requirements of the network
operators,"
The program provides network operators with a
complete IT and billing system with what is said to be a unique modular approach. At the heart
of the program is the fully convergent billing system OPSC Gold that is
currently inter alia in successful operation for the Ukrainian provider
"life:)".
Through the program, Orga Systems manages the whole project and thus
becomes the one-stop-shop for telecom providers who are
searching for efficient integration strategies and trying to minimise
the efforts of vendor co-ordination. The core element of the Orga
Systems Convergence Program is an initial requirements analysis, in
which all the requirements for the solution are determined and defined.
This ensures that future requirements are taken into account, but also
that the intended architecture is not over-designed.
This modular pre-integration of third party products, is designed says Orga
Systems to supply solutions that transcend the "one size fits all"
approach offered by some other providers.
VanillaPlus Recruiting: More Telecoms Writers Needed
Owing to recent expansion, VanillaPlus is looking for additional freelance writers with experience of writing in the fields of telecoms, media and entertainment. If you have the communications skills to match writing by the likes of Alun Lewis, George Malim, and Mark Dye we'd like to hear from you.
VanillaPlus takes complex information on a rapidly evolving communications industry from varied sources including news agencies, PR companies, network operators, independent system vendors, analysts and others. Our goal is then to assess it and communicate it in a clear, vibrant, and stimulating way.
A 'can do' attitude, good English and an enquiring mind are more important than engineering expertise, but you should find new technology stimulating. If this is you or you know someone suitable, please contact VanillaPlus's Editor, Jeremy Cowan on Tel: +44 (0)1420 588638 or Email: editorial@vanillaplus.com
