Comverse, a leading supplier of software and systems enabling
network-based multimedia enhanced communication and billing services,
has announced that CAT Telecom, Thailand's incumbent communications
services provider, has deployed the Comverse Billing and Mediation
solutions to support its wireless CDMA and fixed line services,
replacing CAT's legacy billing systems. This convergent operator
selected the Comverse billing, ordering and mediation solutions to
reduce complexity in their BSS infrastructure while increasing market
agility.
"The Thai telecommunications market is in the throes of deregulation,
and CAT has responded to this change by enhancing our mobile offering
with sophisticated features and functionality," stated Jirayut
Rungsrithong, SEVP and CFO of CAT. "To support this business
transformation, we sought to replace our legacy billing systems with an
advanced solution that serves our current needs while handling future
growth to a converged network that will offer real-time charging for
postpaid subscribers. The Comverse Billing and Mediation Solutions
allow us to meet the new demands of our market and improve our
competitive position."
Comverse Billing Solutions are optimised for the converging
communications market, combining multi-service data mediation and
billing with an advanced set of active customer management
capabilities, including customer self-service, ordering and activation,
real-time charging and payments. Comverse Billing Solutions have been
widely adopted around the globe, enabling operators to grow revenues,
build loyalty and reduce operating expenses. During the implementation
phase, Comverse worked closely with several partners, including Infor
and Subex Azure, to ensure smooth system integration.
"With the Comverse Billing Solution in place, CAT is able to better
manage its existing subscribers and services, while gaining speed to
market and the ability to rapidly introduce new features for full
convergence down the road," said Eitan Achlow, President of Comverse
Asia Pacific. "The ability to easily create and charge for
churn-reducing convergent services will help CAT to drive subscriber
growth and increase its market share in Thailand's competitive mobile
market."
