Comptel Corporation (OMX Helsinki: CTL1V), a leading Operational Support System (OSS) software vendor for convergent mediation, charging, provisioning and network inventory, has announced that Macau’s CTM has selected Comptel to supply provisioning and mediation solutions to support 3G services. CTM, a joint venture of Cable & Wireless, Portugal Telecom and CITIC Pacific, has chosen the Comptel Provisioning Solution to support its 3G service. At the same time, CTM is extending its 2G deployment of the Comptel Event Mediation solution to handle next generation mobile services.
With the planned roll-out of mobile 3G services in 2007, CTM needs to ensure that it had all the right systems in place to be able to provision customers and services fast and efficiently, as well as collect usage information to bill them correctly. With new potential services emerging all the time, flexibility and speed are essential to ensure these processes are carried out to the satisfaction of CTM and its customers.
Mr. Phil Green, CEO of CTM says: “We have chosen Comptel to supply provisioning and mediation solutions to support our 3G services. Based on the track record of our business relationship, we are confident that Comptel will be able to deliver the solutions we need.”
The Comptel Provisioning Solution automates the user provisioning and service activation processes. With a single interface, it covers the entire fulfilment workflow – from service order to start of billing. At CTM, the Comptel Provisioning Solution will have interfaces with the CRM system, Ericsson network, mobile banking and other provisioning gateways.
The Comptel Event Mediation Solution allows usages from multiple sources to be collected and forwarded to billing and other systems. At CTM, the existing the Comptel Event Mediation deployment will be extended to collect usage from GPRS, SMS, MMS gateways as well as content servers.
Mr. Mika Korpinen, Managing Director of Comptel Communications Sdn Bhd and Head of Sales APAC, says: “CTM joins the growing list of operators across the world that are using both our mediation and provisioning solutions.
