Comptel Corporation (OMX Helsinki: CTL1V), the leading vendor of dynamic Operations Support System (OSS) software, recently announced that Romanian service provider Romtelecom of the OTE group has deployed Comptel Provisioning and Activation to manage its multi-vendor CDMA network.

Romtelecom is the leader of the fixed line communications market in Romania. In recent years, it has gone through a period of major transformations and evolved from a former state monopoly to a convergent multi-services provider, providing high quality communication, entertainment and IT solutions. Today, Romtelecom offers its clients traditional voice services, data, broadband and Internet services, satellite TV services and wireless CDMA.

Romtelecom needed a provisioning and activation solution that would allow it to deliver services faster to its customers. Romtelecom chose Comptel because of its wide experience in wireless service activation and ability to deliver reliably within a tight schedule.

“Romtelecom is using the CDMA license to complement its services’ portfolio via wireless broadband, offering its customers the full range of broadband products, as well as to serve areas not within the coverage of the present fix line infrastructure. Comptel’s wide experience and the reliable Comptel Dynamic OSS platform supported us in finalising the project in a shorter period of time”, said Fotis Karonis, Chief Information Officer, Romtelecom.

Comptel Provisioning and Activation solution automates the provisioning and activation processes. With a single interface, it covers the entire workflow – from service order to start of billing. The multi-vendor, multi-network solution has an extensive library of over 450 different interface types, offering out-of-the-box support for new network elements. At Romtelecom, the solution integrates seamlessly with their SOA architecture and is used for provisioning and activation of their Huawei and ZTE CDMA networks.
Mr Simo Sääskilahti, Comptel’s Senior Vice President Products and Solutions concluded: “Over the years, Comptel has built a solid reputation with fast and reliable delivery of our Dynamic OSS solutions. The smooth co-operation with Romtelecom in the deployment project allowed the best solution for their needs to be defined and implemented in record time.”
