Cellular South has selected Oracle’s integrated applications to support its order-to-cash business process – from service creation and deployment through revenue recognition. The applications will help the Mississippi-based wireless provider reduce cost and risk, while accelerating time to market and improving customer satisfaction.

Cellular South, the nation’s largest privately owned wireless provider, selected Oracle’s integrated applications to support its order-to-cash business process – from service creation and deployment through revenue recognition.

The Mississippi-based wireless communications provider will implement Oracle Communications Service Fulfillment Suite, Oracle Communications Billing and Revenue Management and Oracle Application Integration Architecture for Communications to help accelerate time to market for new products and services, enable accurate and timely revenue recognition and improve customer satisfaction with flexible billing options and high-quality customer service.

Cellular South selected Oracle based on the company’s proven success in implementing business and operations support systems (B/OSS) for leading communications service providers worldwide. Further, Cellular South already uses Oracle Financials successfully and was looking for the opportunity to reduce costs by deploying integrated applications from the same vendor.

In particular, Cellular South will take advantage of three industry-specific process integration packs available through Oracle Application Integration Architecture for Communications. The integration packs provide pre-built integrations between Oracle’s CRM, billing and revenue management, and financials applications, enabling quick deployment of three key processes – order to bill, agent-assisted billing care and revenue accounting.
