Metro also enables you to move towards our Global version – our solution fully tailored to your ecosystem and business practices as they grow, through additional configuration and solution options.

Why BSS transformation projects often fail

Large scale BSS transformation projects inevitably take time. Yet all too often, they also disappoint. These projects may stretch across many years and cost millions of dollars, yet still fail to deliver.

Download this whitepaper to understand why some transformation projects disappoint or fail altogether, and to learn about an alternative approach, based on parallel infrastructure, which allows new services to be introduced and scaled without disrupting the established base.

Why choose Metro?

Low deployment fees, pay-as-you-grow licencing and launch in 12 weeks

Launching a greenfield business, initiative or business unit

Greenfield initiatives demand low capital expenditure solutions to test new initiatives and disrupt the market.

Our license is based on a simple pay-as-you-grow model and is measured on the number of active subscriptions monetised by our platform, linking your costs to revenue. Cloud-based infrastructure also means your infrastructure costs only grow as your business grows.

Alternative to costly business transformation

Many service providers are facing long and expensive business transformation projects to enable them to support a more digital approach to their marketplace. With the maturity of 5G and fibre networks, alongside growing demand for IoT and non-telco products, business readiness has become urgent. At the same time, routes to market are becoming increasingly complex.

Metro will fast-track your launch at a significantly lower cost.

Software-as-a-Service led POC/MVP

Our cloud-ready SaaS product enables you to experience our products for real, instead of relying on lengthy, paper-based evaluations.

This is a low-cost, low-risk route to testing out your business model that can be readied for production once proof-of-concept or minimum viable product milestones have been achieved. We also offer a DevOps service model to meet your evolving requirements.

How we deliver fast

Convention over configuration

Self-service options

Metro offers self-service options to digitise your engagement with your customers. End-users have apps and e-commerce options out-of-the-box. Enterprise customers have a service management portal to track expenditure, authorise end-user activity and subscribe to new services. Resellers can track the accounts they manage as indirect channels for your business. An API service layer enables you to extend your assisted and self-care capabilities via other platforms, from Salesforce through to Alexa chat.

Standardised interfaces and APIs

Our integration ecosystem is standardised to meet conventional industry and vendor standards. It is based on an adapter and web services framework, and Metro includes as standard more than 12 touchpoints with your ecosystem, including network provisioning, real-time charging and number portability. Our web services and adapter framework enable a host of additional integration options for back-end operations or front-end solutions.

Pre-integrated real-time solution

Our implementation includes a pre-integrated real-time charging and balance management capability that directly integrates with your network services. This gives total revenue assurance and direct cost control for both post-paid and pre-paid customers – consumer and enterprise.

Our real-time solution is richly integrated with our BSS solution, so there is a single point of configuration, and end-users and stakeholders have a real-time view and control of balances and charges. It is also 5G and fibre networks services ready. Alternatively, we can integrate into existing real-time charging and balance management solutions you may have in place.

Cloud-based

No need to build infrastructure. We can deploy on public and private cloud infrastructure within a day. We offer geo-redundancy and hosting service options to suit your requirements.

A standardised but comprehensive project delivery process

Our delivery program is designed to get you into production within 12 weeks. We are able to achieve this quick time to launch because of our standardised and conventional integration into your ecosystem, best-practice processes and pre-tested productised functionality.

The project can be tailored to suit your needs and extended to support additional requirements, such as subscriber migrations, business process re-configuration and performance testing, as required.

Best practice processes & use cases

Our solution is ready with best practice functionality and processes for Enterprise B2B/IoT, B2B2X/reseller and MVNO/E business units. These business processes are proven and in operation today across different sectors with some of the largest operators. Pre-configuration not only minimises the effort required from your business, but also significantly reduces time to launch. Figure 1 highlights the scope of our best practice and use cases, in relation to key business processes.

Best practice scope and use cases

Total operational flexibility with service creation and operational management tools

With Metro, there’s no limit to the number or type of propositions and price plans for B2C, B2B or B2B2X sectors, or even the type and frequency of billing. The business and operations console gives you direct, intuitive control to manage these options.

Or if you prefer, we can serve as your business operations team via our ISO 9001, ISO 27001 and ISO 22301 compliant managed service, so you can focus your resources on other business needs.
