			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Subex Ltd., a leading global provider of Operations and Business Support Systems (OSS/BSS) for communication service providers (CSPs), announced the launch of Nikira™ V7.2, the industry leading fraud management component of the ROC (Revenue Operations Center) today. The latest fraud management solution is designed to help operators reduce up to 40 percent TCO (total cost of ownership) by reducing investments in the hardware required for fraud management, as well as improving robustness and reliability of Rule Management with the introduction of the Rule Test Facility (RTF). <span id="more-2852"></span></p>
<p>The new version of the fraud management solution will help service providers reduce TCO anywhere between 25 to 40 percent, depending on the processing load of the provider. The architectural changes in the solution eliminate the need for certain hardware components, as well as improve the processing capability of the solution.  As a result, with this new version, service providers can now reduce investments in CPU, memory and storage throughput. With the introduction of the RTF, the solution now provides a ring-fenced rule testing environment which supports extensive rule testing, segregation of duties and productivity improvements. The anti-flooding capability of the RTF improves the robustness and reliability of the solution. Nikira V7.2 also provides enhanced customer experience with its new and improved GUI interface. </p>
<p>Anuradha, Senior Vice President – Engineering, Subex Ltd said, “With demands for NGN services increasing everyday, service providers are constantly grappling with the cost aspect of making these services available to subscribers.  We at Subex are constantly challenging ourselves to introduce newer features and innovations in our solutions, to help our customers better their efficiency and operations. This latest version of Nikira will significantly reduce service providers’ costs in investing in fraud management, a crucial requirement for operators today, thereby affecting an increase in their bottom-line.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Subex Limited, a leading global provider of Operations and Business Support Systems (OSS/BSS) for communications service providers, is charting an aggressive go-to-market strategy to grow existing revenues by addressing the dynamic business requirements of the telecom industry. As part of this strategy, Subex will look at deepening its presence in various geographic locations, bringing in innovations in product development and evolving new modes of delivery of its solutions. <span id="more-2850"></span></p>
<p>Subex witnessed a turnaround in the third quarter of FY 2010. Some of the initiatives that were critical to the turnaround were cost control, moving work from overseas to India and continued investment in R&#038;D for new product development. A clear sign of this turnaround were the 12 implementations of its industry leading fraud management solution in FY2010 Q3, a record for the industry itself. The restructuring of its Foreign Currency Convertible Bonds (FCCBs) that were set to mature in March 2012 played a very significant role in regaining shareholder and investor confidence. Today the company boasts of 220 customers worldwide with over 300 implementations. 36 of the 72 globally leading telecom companies are Subex customers. Rocware 2.0, a key component of Subex’s ROC, was proclaimed one of the top three telecom software products in 2009 by Light Reading, a leading global publication for the telecoms industry. </p>
<p>Commenting on the growth plan, Subash Menon, Founder Chairman, Managing Director and CEO said, “The successful restructuring of our FCCB has definitely eliminated any uncertainty that existed in the minds of our various stakeholders. Our most important asset, our workforce, has also played a very important part in this turnaround, by standing strong in the face of adversity. Backed by our understanding of and leadership in the telecom software domain, we are geared for sustained growth over the next couple of years. I believe that Subex is set to re-live its glorious days as it moves forward into a bright future.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Comverse’s Business Support System (BSS) solution is helping communication service providers (CSPs) manage all customers consistently and interactively across all telecommunications channels. This is important for retaining existing customers, attracting new customers and lowering costs, according to a recently published study by Telesperience.<span id="more-2846"></span></p>
<p>Telesperience, a UK-based telecom analyst firm, surveyed different types of CSPs across the globe to find out their challenges and objectives concerning customer management. Traditionally, this area has been associated with “customer care” and  “customer relationship management”, but it has been increasingly extended to  other activities affecting the overall customer experience, such as ordering, billing, payment, sales and marketing.</p>
<p>Overall, the most pressing issue was a lack of customer management consistency across channels, primarily caused by multiple legacy business systems not “talking” with each other to present one view of the customer. According to 75 percent of the CSPs, this created a sub-optimal customer experience, which is driving customer churn.</p>
<p>Comverse addresses these issues with the Comverse ONE Billing &#038; Active Customer Management solution, a comprehensive BSS, built around a single data model and product catalogue that offers a complete, real-time view of customer and product data across an operator&#8217;s network. The solution’s unified architecture enables operators to leverage an Active Customer Management approach to manage all customers consistently and in a real-time, interactive manner, regardless of how the customer chooses to pay for services or interacts with the CSP.  </p>
<p>“Legacy customer management infrastructure was designed for a different business paradigm and now inhibits CSPs from meeting their customers’ expectations.  Ignoring the problem and bolting on additional systems is increasingly becoming not viable,&#8221; says Teresa Cottam, research director at Telesperience. </p>
<p>“By moving towards convergent customer management, CSPs improve their ability to deliver optimal and consistent customer management, targeted marketing, competitive differentiation and growth enablement while also minimising their costs,” Cottam said. “As a result, we see a strong trend developing for more and more CSPs to implement convergent customer management systems, such as the Comverse ONE Billing and Active Customer Management solution.&#8221;</p>
<p>The full results of the Comverse-commissioned study can be found in the Telesperience report, Enhancing the customer experience using convergent customer management, which is available online.</p>
<p>&#8220;The Telesperience study serves to underscore Comverse&#8217;s unique approach to helping CSPs deliver an optimal customer experience,” said Gabriel Matsliach, president of global products and operations at Comverse, the world&#8217;s leading supplier of software and systems enabling value-added messaging and content services, converged billing and active customer management and IP communications.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fujitsu, a leading systems integrator and provider of business, information technology and communications solutions, has recently announced a regional partnership with Tribold Limited.<span id="more-2842"></span></p>
<p>Tribold EPMTM is the first solution certified by the Telecommunications Management Forum (TMF) against the Information Framework (SID). TMF is the world’s leading industry association for service providers and their suppliers to access practical solutions that improves business efficiency. The Forum also provides guidance and leadership to transform the way that a Communication Service Provider (CSP) creates, delivers and charges for product and services.</p>
<p>Tribold EPMTM offers the following to CSPs:<br />
•	Product &#038; Service Data Management (PDM) &#038; Centralised Product Catalog (CPC). Normalised and holistic product &#038; service definition, Centralised MDM for product and service catalogue, rationalised and reusable product data and rules<br />
•	Product &#038; Service Data Integration (PDI). Control over data distribution and launch, automated integration of product data across the enterprise<br />
•	Product &#038; Service Lifecycle Management (PLM). Products managed through a defined, repeatable and measurable process throughout the full lifecycle<br />
•	Product &#038; Service Business Intelligence (PBI). Standardised operational product reporting (e.g., price books, BOMs) and enhanced product performance analysis (e.g., unit cost, profitability, penetration)<br />
•	Product &#038; Service Channel Management (PCM). Exposing the relevant product catalogue to the various eco-system channels – customer, reseller, partner provider for content, services, devices and networks</p>
<p>Tribold EPMTM is used to create a certified reference definition for a product or service. Without this certified product reference definition, the CSP finds itself using data from many sources which are incomplete, out of date and conflicting. The result is a high order rejection rate in the order management process.</p>
<p>In addition, pricing and product rules are often dispersed within a CSP’s backend systems, which create the challenge of identifying which data within the system is accurate. This causes incorrect offers being extended to customers, which in turn, result in billing errors.</p>
<p>Finally, for historical reasons, order fulfilment processes are typically hard-coded based on the product instance. This method is inefficient such that each time a new product is created, the order fulfilment processes need to be rebuilt from scratch, regardless of how similar the new product is to existing products.</p>
<p>Tribold EPMTM meets these three challenges by creating a single point of product truth for the ordering portal and all backend systems. With this method, the CSP is able to:<br />
1.	Ensure that all product reference definitions are always up to date and correct with no data synchronisation issues. This eliminates invalid orders due to data alignment problems.<br />
2.	Ensure that all offers and associated pricing is always available to any system or a process that needs it. This eliminates incorrect offers being issued to customers that lead to billing errors.<br />
3.	Eliminate hard-coded order fulfilment processes and replace the process with workflows that are easily modified. This promotes a high level of reusability of existing products for new creations, which results in a dramatic time saving in launching new products.</p>
<p>“Fujitsu is proud to partner Tribold because we feel this product represents a new paradigm for CSPs. As CSPs move into an increasingly competitive environment, a major source of differentiation will be derived by the CSPs’ ability to quickly develop and launch new products. Fujitsu sees the Tribold suite of solutions as a critical element required in this new world,” said Mr. David Bowden, Vice President of Strategic Initiatives for Fujitsu.</p>
<p>“Tribold is honoured to tap into Fujitsu’s expertise and presence in Southeast Asia. We are confident that the partnership will allow CSPs in Southeast Asia to radically reduce both Time to Market and Cost to Market for product and service management in line with the ultimate need for driving profitable growth,” said Ernest Margitta, Director of Marketing at Tribold.</p>
<p>Under the agreement, Fujitsu will resell, distribute, promote and market Tribold EPMTM the market leading Enterprise Product Management (EPM) solution. Other companies under the Fujitsu Group will also perform similar roles in regional markets including Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia.</p>
