03/03/2015
Zain Kuwait customers will benefit from real-time spending control and single invoice for all services
Ericsson to deploy parts of its Agility Suite and will be prime integrator
Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC) has been awarded the entire Business Support Systems (BSS) transformation project for Zain Kuwait. The agreement covers a wide range of products, solutions and system integration services, which will prepare Zain for the opportunities of the Networked Society.
With Ericssons solutions, all Zain customers will be able to benefit from the advantages of a fully integrated and convergent environment with higher level of flexibility and shorter time-to-market for new and updated offerings. Customers will experience enhanced billing flexibility, single bill and capabilities to try out new services, without facing unexpected costs at the end of the month.
This project marks the second phase of Ericssons partnership with Zain Kuwait. In November 2014, Ericsson successfully completed the implementation of its Charging System, Multi Activation, Multi Mediation and integration layer for Zain Kuwait.
Omar Al Omar , CEO of Zain Kuwait, says: Ericsson is a leader in BSS transformation processes and its best-of-suite BSS solutions deliver efficient, innovative, and user-oriented business systems. We are confident in Ericssons ability to help Zain Kuwait streamline operations, reduce costs, and provide the best possible overall customer experience - in real time.
Rafiah Ibrahim, President Ericsson Region Middle East and East Africa, says: We are pleased to further strengthen our partnership with Zain Kuwait. Through our BSS transformation project, we aim to help Zain Kuwait consolidate its systems, optimize services, accelerate processes, and decrease costs. Simply put, our mission is to empower organizations to ensure superior results and achieve new heights of success.
