Evolving Systems Wins Multi-Country Service Activation Contract

Published on: 22nd January 2008

Evolving Systems says its Tertio Service Activation solution has been selected by an unnamed telecoms group with wireless operations in Asia, Latin America and Africa, for deployment in seven countries. Although the company declined to name the client - it is probably Millicom, as they are about the only company that would fit the description.

The main driver for the decision was the need for a proven solution that could easily and cost-effectively provision each operator's service offerings including IP and 3G services across a multi-vendor, multi-technology network infrastructure.

Under the agreements, Tertio implementations will be phased according to a schedule of accelerated deployments in Latin America and Africa that will run in parallel. Evolving Systems' professional services group will be responsible for the end-to-end delivery and support of the implementations. Once in production, Tertio will provide a single convergent service activation platform to enable the provisioning of advanced services, including prepaid and post-paid voice, voice-mail, MMS and other advanced services, on the carrier's GSM networks.

"Evolving Systems is pleased to have been selected as the sole vendor for this multi-country, multi-region project," said Thad Dupper, president and CEO of Evolving Systems. "This global carrier is experiencing tremendous growth and wanted a partner who could keep pace with them in the Asian, Latin American and African wireless markets. We are confident Evolving Systems' service activation solution and services will meet their needs today as well as in the future."
