Optiva to deliver new cloud charging engine to accelerate Mtel's
operational agility and service velocity supporting its
next-generation, 5G and IoT use cases
TORONTO, Aug. 10, 2021 /CNW/ - Mtel Banja Luka, a leading
provider of digital services and telecommunications solutions to
over two million customers in Bosnia and
Herzegovina and a member of the Telekom Srbija Group, signed
an agreement for a private-cloud upgrade and multi-year support
renewal with Optiva. Mtel will deploy Optiva Charging Engine to
harness the advanced operational capabilities and agile service
creation element of Optiva's new cloud-native platform.
The transition to the new cloud platform and renewed Optiva
support services will empower Mtel to drive modernization,
operational automation and lower its total cost of ownership (TCO).
The Optiva cloud platform affords Mtel a smooth and seamless
upgrade, addressing any migration risk to the ongoing business
operations and simplifying Mtel architecture and ongoing management
of operations.
"The technical transformation Mtel is experiencing places a high
priority on increasing business — not just ensuring our equipment
works. We intend to be a monetization engine, equipping our
marketing and business teams with robust tools to remain
competitive and provide advanced, digital services to consumers and
enterprises. Optiva is a trusted partner that will enhance our
ability to rapidly respond to new market demands with its
feature-rich solution and services," said Marko Lopičić, CEO of
Mtel Banja Luka.
Mtel will benefit from accelerated time to resolution (TTR) and
access to more than 100 out-of-the-box product feature use cases,
which will further differentiate its unique, high-quality customer
experience. The multi-year support agreement and end-to-end
solution, for which Optiva provides complete operational support,
enable Mtel to focus on its goals and accelerate its long-term
growth and business success. This includes expansion into new
market segments by leveraging the easy to integrate, real-time,
any-play convergent charging platform with unprecedented
scalability. Mtel will also leverage the open architecture to
introduce third-party solutions into its service portfolio, and the
standardized plug-and-play APIs will create a true
revenue-generating partner ecosystem for increasing monetization
opportunities.
"We are proud to have partnered with Mtel since 2005, and I am
grateful for the trust they have placed in us to take the next step
on the journey together to capture the transformational business
and operational opportunities of cloud innovation. By deploying our
mission-critical, cloud-native BSS on its private cloud, Mtel will
increase its capability to innovate quickly, thereby accelerating
its business velocity and success in bringing to market new use
cases that fully leverage its next-gen BSS capabilities," said
John Giere, President and CEO of
Optiva.
