Poland’s Tel-Energo buys integrated OSS
solution from Intec Telecom Systems
Intec signs fourth deal in largest telecoms market in Eastern
Europe Valued at over 2 million Euros
January 07, 2004: London/Warsaw - Intec Telecom Systems,
a global provider of Operations Support Systems (OSS) for fixed,
wireless and IP/next generation networks, today announced an
integrated OSS solutions deal with Tel-Energo, one of Poland’s
leading telecoms operators. Under the terms of the agreement
Intec will supply the company with its InterconnecT™ and
Inter-mediatE™ billing and mediation solutions to support the
complex and diverse challenges of Tel-Energo’s fibre optic
network. Tel Energo is Intec’s first Inter-mediatE and fourth
InterconnecT customer in Poland, making the country one of the
biggest revenue earners for Intec’s software solutions in
Eastern Europe. Intec’s new agreement with Tel-Energo is valued
at close to 2 million Euros and includes licence and support
fees.
“Poland’s telecommunications sector is in a state of rapid
transition,” explains Peter Deane, Intec’s Managing Director for
EMEA. “Pressure from the EU and the WTO has forced the state
regulator, URTiP, to introduce new telecoms laws that will
encourage fiercer competition and increase mobile and fixed
penetration rates in Poland. Tel-Energo is responding to this
new business environment by investing in InterconnecT and
Inter-mediatE. These solutions are specifically designed to
support interoperability with other operators and to help
carriers launch new services quickly and cost-effectively.”
As a fully convergent solution, Inter-mediatE also allows
Tel-Energo to use the same mediation system for both its present
voice services as well as its planned introduction of next
generation services.
“Many Eastern European operators like Tel-Energo are facing the
challenges raised by telecoms deregulation and EU membership
requirements,” said Kevin Adams, Intec’s CEO. “Unfortunately
most of their in-house billing and mediation systems are not
prepared for these challenges since they have been designed for
routing simple CDRs and therefore cannot cope with the
significantly increased volumes of data from competing mobile
and fixed carriers. Fortunately the integration of Intec’s
solutions will provide a sophisticated billing package for
Tel-Energo’s network. InterconnecT and Inter-mediatE are widely
recognised as the very best OSS products on the market today and
will offer the necessary flexibility and scalability Tel-Energo
needs to achieve its expanding business requirements.”
