Posted on August 21, 2006 Written by oss

Convergys Corporation (NYSE: CVG), a provider of customer care, human resources, and billing services, has announced a new five-year contract with Brasil Telecom S.A. (NYSE: BTM) to expand the use of Convergys’ Infinys [tm] software to support Brasil Telecom’s wireless, wireline, data, and Internet services. Since 2002, Infinys, the leading convergent BSS software, has supported Brasil Telecom’s fixed telephony customers and, as of 2003, its wireless subscribers.

“As part of the new agreement, Convergys will provide consulting and professional services for software customization and implementation of the solution across Brasil Telecom’s lines of business,” said Dante Nardell Junior, Brasil Telecom CTO.

Brasil Telecom is one of the largest telecommunications companies in South America. The operator has over 10.8 million fixed lines installed, reaches over 2.2 million customers in mobile telephone services, and has the second largest broadband base in South America.

“South American communications providers must constantly focus on improving their financial performance by uncovering and quickly capitalizing on new opportunities for revenue growth and improving operational efficiencies,” said Eldar Kociak, Convergys’ Managing Director for South America. “Brasil Telecom’s decision to expand the use of Infinys for true convergence will help them grow revenues, improve profitability, and reduce IT costs associated with operating multiple systems.”

Convergys currently provides billing and professional services for two of the largest telecommunication companies in South America. With more than 20 years of experience in billing and customer care, Convergys combines its broad portfolio of professional and consulting services, deep technical and operational expertise, and award-winning Infinys software to solve its clients’ complex BSS and CRM business problems.
