ECtel Ltd. has been chosen as a World BSS Award finalist for its revenue assurance project (RAP) with AT&T Mobility.
“We are honored to receive this mark of recognition for our unique and innovative revenue assurance solutions and contributions to the industry,” said Mr. Itzik Weinstein, President and CEO of ECtel. “The size and scope of the project made this a complex undertaking, however, we are very happy to say that ECtel’s RAP provided AT&T with the most effective tool to solve the revenue assurance challenges it was presented with by today’s market.”
The World BSS Awards, launched in 1997, help raise awareness of the significance of billing and information management systems and processes to the communications industry, identifying key trends and rewarding BSS best practice. They are widely regarded as the highest industry recognition of BSS excellence.
The announcement of the winners will be made at the BIMS 2008 Gala Diamond Drinks Party in Amsterdam on the evening of Tuesday, June 10th, 2008.
“As the telecom industry has increased in complexity, new and multifaceted challenges have been created for revenue assurance practitioners – sophisticated networks with new sources and types of data, new value chains and partners, and an abundance of charging plans for services that are being offered in increasingly intricate bundles,” said Hugh Roberts, Chairman of the Awards Judging Panel and Consultant Director for IIR’s BSS, OSS & RM events. “Accordingly, the solutions being presented by companies such as Ectel represent many man years of effort and high levels of understanding of service provider requirements. We are delighted to honor them as finalists.”
