Schlumberger is providing the consulting and systems integration expertise to implement BSCS 8 into the existing infrastructure. This is the first implementation project for BSCS 8, a fully convergent customer care and billing solution that has been designed to enable operators to gain competitive advantage and maximize their 3G investment. It delivers end-to-end content charging from the network and application interaction through to the billing and partner settlement across all mobile, fixed and IP networks.
