Solution


As a software development and system integration partner, we’ve started cooperation with the Telecom company since 2012. Our responsibility is to ensure all the business needs are covered with solutions operating consistently with billing and customer care systems.

A brief overview of the tasks we’ve done for the Telecom operator comprises the following.

Development

CRM system for customer service representative (CSR)

We’ve built a subsystem to handle customers’ orders for telecommunication services. The module is integrated with CRM and billing software and is used in all points of sales.

Contract Takeover module

We’ve built and integrated with the existing systems a module to automate contract transferring between telecommunication services customers.

Telecom order management module

We’ve built a subsystem to handle customers’ orders for telecommunication services. The module is integrated with CRM and billing software and is used in all points of sales.

Procurement module

We’ve developed the procurement module to manage, control and plan procurement and deliveries.

Integration middleware

We have created the integration middleware to connect the Product Catalog with the Ericsson BSCS system and manage all the products and tariff plans available for ordering Ethernet, TV, fixed net and mobile connections.

System integration

CRM and billing systems

Several billing systems calculate usage for different services that the telecom operator provides customers with. The software uses data from CRM to charge events and generate bills. We've tailored the CRM to fit the telecom operator's business needs and integrated it with billing systems processing fixed and mobile connections.

Legacy systems and Ericsson BSCS system

Sharing data may be a challenging task for legacy systems, and we have integrated outdated software with the billing system to make data exchange possible.

Customization

Ericsson BSCS system

We’ve configured ready-made customer care and billing software for the telecommunication company to fit market-specific business processes.

Consulting

Technology consulting on system integration

Our experts have assisted a Telecom provider by analyzing possibilities of further modernization and integration with other software, particularly with ZTE.

Release management, maintenance, QA and BA of the Ericsson BSCS system

Our quality assurance engineers, DevOps, business analysts and project managers are working hard to ensure smooth implementation of all the releases, updates and modifications of the Ericsson BSCS system.

Legacy systems and subsystems support and maintenance

A telecom operator inherited legacy software after the merger. We’ve been ensuring the seamless work of outdated modules and old hardware since then.
