Intec Billing, a worldwide provider of business and operations support systems (BSS/OSS), has recently announced that DigiTel, a competitive service provider in the Philippines is deploying Intec InterconnecT v7.1, the latest generation of the world’s most powerful, flexible and reliable system for domestic, international and ITU-based billing and settlements.
DigiTel Chief Information Officer, Henry Aguda said: “We selected Intec’s Interconnect v7.1 because of its reputation as the clear market leader, its state-of-the-art convergent architecture, and the strong local support that Intec can provide in the Asia-Pacific region.”
Established in 1987, Digital Telecommunications Phils. Inc. (DigiTel) is majority-owned by JG Summit Holdings Inc., one of the largest and most diversified conglomerates in the Philippines. DigiTel continues to be the second largest provider of fixed line communications in the country. Through 608 regional and local exchanges, DigiTel telephones are now available in 276 towns and cities throughout Luzon.
InterconnecT v7.1 meets the functionality and performance requirements of a dynamic telecommunications market by dealing with both traditional and next-generation products and services in a single system, and with proven ability to handle national carrier traffic levels. InterconnecT v7.1 takes settlement to the next level by also supporting inter-partner settlement for IP-based services offered over next generation networks. This includes multi-party settlement with a variety of enterprises such as content providers, for services such as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), content downloads and multimedia messaging.

Intec Interconnect v7.1 now offers a level of functionality and performance that cannot be matched, particularly in technically demanding, next-generation services and in complex, multi-party settlements.”
