Redknee Wins a Multi-Million Dollar Digital
Transformation Deal with Canada's
Largest Independently Owned Telecommunications Provider
TORONTO, Aug. 2, 2016 /CNW/ - Redknee Solutions Inc.
(TSX: RKN), a leading provider of real-time monetization and
subscriber management software, is pleased to announce the signing
of a new multi-million dollar digital transformation contract with
Tbaytel, the largest independently owned telecommunications service
provider in Canada. This win will
leverage Redknee's experience in managing and implementing complex
IT transformation projects to modernize Tbaytel's business support
systems.
The Redknee solution will consolidate Tbaytel's existing
multi-play service offerings onto a single monetization platform,
including fixed line, Internet, TV, mobile and security services;
improving efficiencies and laying the foundation for Tbaytel's
transformation into a digital service provider. Redknee's product
catalog and order management system (acquired from Orga Systems)
will allow users to select a combination of services and enable the
omni-channel customer experience. This new customer win adds to
Redknee's growing business in North
America, while highlighting Redknee's ability to support
complex multi-play business models and perform large-scale IT
transformations.
Communications Service Providers (CSPs) around the world are
adapting their revenue and business models to maximize the value of
new technologies and improve their competitive edge. Redknee's
real-time monetization and subscriber management software and
services allow CSPs to quickly deploy new capabilities and
initiatives that support the evolution towards becoming digital
service providers.
Redknee will utilize its proven project management methodology
to modernize Tbaytel's business support systems so they can more
easily create new service offerings and revenue streams, speeding
up the launch of new digital and multi-play converged services and
real-time marketing offers. It will also allow Tbaytel to create a
more consistent, omni-channel experience for their customers.
Dan Topatigh, Tbaytel's President
and CEO commented:
