Vmobile Nigeria picks up Subex's INcharge

BANGALORE -- Subex Systems, the global telecom software product company, recently announced that Vmobile Nigeria picked up its revenue assurance solution, INcharge. INcharge is part of the RevMax suite from Subex that consists of fraud management system, ranger. The order said to be nearly a million US dollars.

Vmobile, formerly Econet Wireless Nigeria Ltd., is the contending number one GSM network in the burgeoning Nigerian telecom market, with over two million subscribers and coverage in 60 cities and over 2,500 communities. INcharge is an end-to-end revenue assurance solution that interfaces with a variety of support systems and network elements to enable usage information, track discrepancies and identify potential revenue leakages across the entire OSS chain of a telecom operator.

RevMax, the revenue maximisation suite to which INcharge belongs, maximises revenue and profits through, assuring earned revenue, enhancement of revenue and cost optimisation. The suite offers an integrated platform for revenue maximisation solutions that eliminates the need to invest piecemeal in point solutions.

The benefits of an integrated architecture are strategic and operational. Strategically, a single-platform optimising the IT infrastructure costs significantly lesser and such integration drives informed, holistic business decisions and course corrections. The operational benefits include streamlined, standards driven end-to-end revenue maximisation workflow across the organisation.

Global telecom studies revealed that telecom operators lose close to 10 percent in revenue leakage with fraud being one of the key reasons. According to estimates, currently, only about 27 percent of operators use any revenue maximisation solution.

Subash Menon, president and CEO, Subex, said: "This win is an indication of the excellent customer support we have provided on Ranger. Our strategy has always been to leverage our existing client base for our other products. We are pleased that our strategy is bearing fruits in case of INcharge. Vmobile is one of the earliest clients of Subex's ranger fraud management system."

Willem Swart, CEO, Vmobile, added: "We already have Subex's Ranger FMS installed in our network. It was natural for us to turn to Subex first, when we were looking for a revenue assurance product, given the very good support it provided to us in the past."
