MTS and Systeam Form Strategic Alliance to Offer Complete End-to-End Billing Solution for Service Providers and Carriers in EMEA and South America Tuesday May 30, 8:30 am ET - - Combined Product Offering Provides Comprehensive Solution by which to Manage, Control, Bill and Verify the Entire Billing Cycle Operation - RA'ANANA, Israel and FAIR LAWN, N.J., May 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MTS - Mer Telemanagement Solutions Ltd. (Nasdaq: MTSL - News), a global provider of business support systems (BSS) for comprehensive telecommunication management and customer care & billing solutions, and Systeam Italy S.p.A., an Italian company focused on fraud management, interconnection billing and law enforcement agencies support systems, are joining forces to offer service providers and operators a complete suite of integrated solutions. Through its partnership with MTS, Systeam can offer clients a fully integrated retail billing capability along with data traffic management. The MTS Total-e billing solution is a perfect complement to the Systeam Modula suite of products, enhancing functionalities through a web-based, self-care portal. The new, combined product offering provides operators and services providers a comprehensive solution by which to manage, control, bill and verify the entire billing cycle operation and protect revenues with fraud control. Systeam Modula products are installed in several customers worldwide, including two tier-1 operators in India. MTS solutions are used worldwide by wireless and wireline service providers for interconnect billing, partner revenue management and for charging and invoicing customers. The Company plans to offer the Systeam SmartTrace solution, a support system for law enforcement agencies (LEA) that provides information regarding historical customer activity and current communication content to support investigations, to its client base. Dr. Marco Braccioli, Vice President of Sales & Marketing for Systeam, commented, "We can now offer our clients a complete retail billing solution together with full web-based customer self-care. This can an be integrated with our already installed interconnect solution. This combined product offering gives us a single turnkey solution from one vendor that performs all the functions that a service provider might need, currently and in the future." Ilan Arbel, Vice President of Corporate Sales for MTS, sees this as a great opportunity for service providers to get a complete, integrated end-to- end solution. "The MTS customer care module enables carriers and service providers to easily manage customers' queries while enhancing those relationships through closer ties to the user and greater flexibility and adaptability to changes in the marketplace. Our Enhanced Web Self Care Module allows the end user to monitor and acquire new services directly through their own provider's web site. Similarly, carriers and service providers can manage the entire relationship with end-users and partners, driving business and customer loyalty while combating churn." The Systeam Modula suite performs data traffic management from the collection of data, optimal routing, analysis and reconciliation of the invoice, through the detection of fraud. The Usage Collection Manager acquires data in different formats and produces output files in a configurable way absorbing all changes in the incoming data. Choosing the best routing is a trade-off among its price and several technical/economic features (quality, agreement, etc..): Modula/InterTrace Least Cost Routing (LCR) module allows, starting from the price lists of interconnected Carriers with all their significant technical features (quality, sizing, routes, etc ... ), to choose the best routing using configurable rules and parameters. Information on Least Cost Routing is provided to the network as options in order of descending convenience at the Carrier level. FraudTrace is able to perform analysis on whatever kind of service in telecommunications (wireline, wireless, UMTS, Internet, etc.) and in other service domains (E-Commerce, utilities, pre-paid services, etc.) being able to be configured with a 3G language in order to rapidly implement new fraud detection algorithms. The MTS Total-e billing solution is designed to provide a converged bill of all the usage expenses of a user including landline, wireless, Value- Added Services/Content, IPTV, VoIP and data. The solution provides for mobile fixed- wireless and long distance billing to their subscribers for both pre-paid and post-paid services. The platform's interconnect billing capability is ideally suited for carriers and service providers wishing to reduce leakage in dealing with partner relationships, and offers a real money-savings alternative. MTS has implemented a sophisticated solution for the new Value-Added Services that consists of a powerful rating system that can be integrated into a carrier or service provider's main legacy billing system to reduce the risk and time to market of the new services. The solution allows carriers and service providers to bill for new services such as Video on Demand, Music on Demand, News on Demand, Digital and Analog Video Channels and other interactive Value-Added Services. Additional value-added services such as SMS, MMS, WAP that are delivered via an Intelligent Network, calling cards and/or Next generation services can also be billed.
