Angola Telecom to use CSG Solutions for Retail and Wholesale Revenue
Management
ENGLEWOOD, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
CSG
International (NASDAQ: CSGS), a global provider of interactive
transaction-driven solutions and services, today announced that CSG's
partner, Satec, will deploy the company's award-winning Revenue
Management solutions at Angola Telecom. The contract comes on the
heels of the successful pilot deployment of CSG Interconnect
for Angola Telecom's wholesale operations. The integrated solution will
include CSG Singleview®
Convergent Rating & Billing, Singleview Customer Management, and Intermediate™,
as well as the expansion of CSG Interconnect to include CSG
Route and Financial Manager.
State-owned Angola Telecom is the incumbent operator for the country,
offering voice and data fixed line services over ADSL, WiMax and Fiber.
The transformation of the operator's back office systems is part of an
investment plan that includes the rollout of its next generation network
(NGN), fiber optic and IP/MPLS backbone, LTE services as well as
wireless in the local loop (WiLL) and copper wire-based last mile
deployment, which nearly doubled the number of available lines, 90
percent of which are digital.
Satec, a multinational ITC integration company providing advanced
technology solutions and services to improve productivity and business
competitiveness, has won the contract to design and build Angola
Telecom's new information systems using CSG solutions to cover all BSS
functionalities and provide a fully integrated best-of-breed BSS/OSS and
ERP solution that will allow Angola Telecom to implement its business
processes in a cost-efficient, flexible and scalable way.
"Our focus is to bring the best level of service to the people of
Angola," said João Martins, chief executive officer at Angola Telecom.
"Satec with CSG will provide a complete and integrated solution that
will enable us to manage our business for retail, enterprise and
wholesale services, allowing us to grow, become profitable and deliver
better services in an optimal manner to our customers."
"The CSG-Satec partnership is committed to bringing transformative
solutions and services to telecom providers across Africa," said Satec
managing director Teresa Taubmann. "We have embarked on a long-term
relationship that combines our complementary competencies and deep
domain expertise to rapidly deliver robust solutions and support for the
new generation of telecom."
Angola Telecom will benefit from the end-to-end revenue management and
the rapid deployment afforded by Singleview, a TM Forum
Frameworx-certified solution built upon the TM Forum's suite of best
practices and standards that provides the blueprint for effective,
efficient business operations. The solution's pre-configured processes
minimize the level of effort and time-to-market, while providing the
robust functions needed for managing and offering the latest voice, data
and digital services. The addition of CSG Route and Financial Manager to
Angola Telecom's operations will further streamline and optimize
wholesale processes and provide additional control and visibility for
improving revenue and profitability.
"CSG is extremely pleased to be a part of the transformation of Angola
Telecom and a strategic partner with Satec in the region. We are
committed to providing the best solution, resources, and optimized
models for dynamic, emerging markets around the world," said George
Fraser, vice president, CSG EMEA. "Our team of professionals established
a strong level of trust during the pilot phase, and we look forward to a
successful deployment of the full solution and growing our relationship
with both Angola Telecom and Satec."
