Intec Supports New Service Launches & Market Expansion for APT Taiwan
LONDON, Nov. 10 /BERNAMA-AsiaNet/--
Intec, a global provider of business support systems (BSS) solutions, today announced that APT (Asia Pacific
Telecom Group), one of Taiwan's leading operators of fixed and mobile networks, has deployed an upgrade of
Intec's market-leading Total Service Mediation and InterconnecT billing and settlement solutions. The
upgrade implementation will support the delivery of higher value content-rich services, and increased
subscriber growth.
Intec's convergent mediation solution is the platform of choice for APT group of companies, including Asia
Pacific Broadband Telecom (APBT), who enjoy a close partnership with South Korea's leading operator, SK
Telecom. In addition to helping secure competitive advantage through rapid service launches, Intec's robust,
advanced mediation solution offers increased scalability and accuracy ensuring speedy and accurate contract
settlement, thereby safeguarding revenue loss.
Intec's InterconnecT product suite is vital for an operator such as APT looking towards future subscriber
expansion; as a completely robust, off-the-shelf solution it is fully scalable and completely future-proof,
reducing outgoing and operational costs while delivering rapid ROI. InterconnecT v7.1 addresses the needs
of the dynamic telecoms market by dealing with both traditional and next-generation products and services in
a single system, with proven ability to support international carrier traffic levels. This includes multi-party
settlement with third party service providers including IP-based services such as VoIP, as well as content
downloads and multimedia messaging.
"Intec's mediation solution has ably demonstrated its capability to give us go-to-market advantage, critical for
us at this stage of our growth, commented Paul Chang, Group CIO of APT. "Furthermore their interconnect
solution is in a class of its own, and we have been extremely impressed by the quality of the product and
delivery team, and speed of delivery."
Intec Vice President, Asia Pacific, Graeme Paynter added, "We are not only committed to delivering world
class technology solutions, but also helping our customers create strong competitive differentiation and
ultimately simplify the way they do business. We're extremely proud to support APTG in its growth path,
delivering high quality, next generation services to the dynamic Taiwan market."
