Wataniya Telecom Kuwait Selects CSG International's Wholesale Billing Management Solution
WOKING, England & ENGLEWOOD, Colo. --(Business Wire)--
CSG International (NASDAQ:
CSGS), a global provider of software- and services-based business
support solutions that help clients generate revenue and maximize
customer relationships, today announced that Wataniya Telecom (News - Alert), 92.1%
owned by Qatar Telecom (QTel), has selected CSG
Interconnect® as the wholesale billing management
solution for its operation in Kuwait.
Wataniya Telecom is a leading mobile operator in Kuwait and has multiple
domestic and international telecoms partners including for voice, data
and SMS/MMS interconnection. CSG Interconnect will automate partner
management, carrier-to-carrier rating, billing and settlement and help
speed disputes management and reconciliation. It will provide Wataniya
Telecom with detailed financial reporting as well as interfaces to other
systems. Previously wholesale billing was handled manually.
"With the growth of our wholesale operation we recognized the
opportunity to review and improve our partner agreements ad settlement
management processes," said Hisham Siblini, Chief Technology Officer at
Wataniya Telecom in Kuwait. "We chose to implement CSG Interconnect
knowing our parent company QTel and our operations in Algeria and
Tunisia have won great results from doing so. Additionally, we valued
being able to work closely with CSG's regional services team in Dubai."
CSG Interconnect is a market-leading wholesale business management
solution handling every kind of network traffic for local, regional and
worldwide operators in a single, highly integrated platform. The
solution is part of CSG's Wholesale Business Management Solution (WBMS)
which provides highly-efficient partner management, optimized traffic
trading and routing through the network, accurate billing and settlement
for all services including traditional voice, data, IP/content and GSMA (News - Alert)
roaming services. WBMS offers a pre-integrated combination of CSG's
proven products including its latest acquisition, Ascade 7, which
provides end-to-end process support for the supply chain of trading and
exchanging voice traffic between operators.
"As operators grow, the wholesale business either becomes an important
revenue-generator, or an expensive cost center," said John Rainger (News - Alert), Vice
President of EMEA, CSG International. "CSG Interconnect offers all
operators - local, regional and global - the opportunity to optimize
their carrier-to-carrier billing and settlements processes and we
welcome Wataniya Telecom in Kuwait as our newest customer in the region."
