Tunisie Telecom Selects Telarix's iXTools(TM) to Expand Its International Carrier Business and Enhance the Overall Performance of Its Interconnect Systems
VIENNA, Va. --(Business Wire)-- Telarix, Inc., the leading provider of Interconnect Business Optimization (IBO) and settlement solutions for content providers, IP service providers and global fixed and mobile operators, together with GET Wireless, one of North Africa's leading international systems providers, today announced that Tunisie Telecom, the leading national telecommunications company in Tunisia, will deploy Telarix's comprehensive portfolio of interconnect business optimization solutions to manage the carrier's growing interconnect business.
Tunisie Telecom will implement Telarix's partner management, routing and trade solutions as well as the revenue assurance modules, iXBill and iXAudit. iXBill is a robust and highly flexible interconnect billing system that allows carriers to eliminate revenue leakage by ensuring that every call is captured, rated and invoiced correctly. Integrated with iXConnect, the solution is able to define and manage an unlimited number of interconnect agreements with other carriers and content partners, regardless of the level of complexity. This level of sophistication enables a carrier to support a variety of agreement types and rating scenarios including multi-party settlements and sophisticated revenue sharing partnerships.
iXAudit, the second component of Telarix's revenue assurance solution, is an end-to-end audit and dispute management system designed to streamline the validation of interconnect invoices, reconcile charges and manage settlements. The system provides a data repository for all carrier invoices and a flexible workflow to expedite the identification and management of disputes. By supporting the automatic transfer of information to back-office financial management systems, carriers can efficiently complete payment processing and manage the accounting for any disputed amounts which might arise.
"Tunisie Telecom has a proven track record of deploying innovative technologies that enhance our business and provide a competitive advantage," said Nabil Baccouche, Head of Wholesale and International at Tunisie Telecom. "Deploying Telarix's iXTools will enable Tunisie Telecom to dramatically increase the financial management of our interconnect business, allowing us to make faster decisions that increase revenue opportunities and reduce costs."
"Forward looking service providers like Tunisie Telecom are deploying next generation business optimization solutions that can increase the overall effectiveness of their interconnect operations and drive revenue growth," said Don Lynch, CEO of Telarix. "By implementing iXTools, Tunisie Telecom can react quickly to margin opportunities while enhancing their overall service delivery capabilities to their customers."
Telarix's iXTools is a powerful suite of software modules that enables carriers to reduce costs and increase profitability across their interconnect networks. By analyzing both revenue and cost information associated with telecom traffic in near real-time, carriers can optimize network routing and identify financial risks and opportunities while ensuring that every call is captured, rated and billed accurately. Three of the world's five largest telecom providers depend on iXTools to optimize their interconnect business.
The Yankee Group named Telarix as one of the only interconnect solutions providers to address the four critical value areas for service providers: Route Optimization; Pricing and Margin Management; Billing; and Verification, Audit and Reconciliation.
