Amdocs has strengthened its role as a key driver of 5G monetization by partnering with Globe Telecom in the Philippines and Telefónica Móviles in El Salvador.
Both partnerships underscore Amdocs’ continuing commitment to providing agile, cloud-based billing solutions that help operators rapidly deploy innovative services and capture new revenue opportunities in the evolving 5G environment.
Partnerships to drive 5G innovation
Early last year, Amdocs announced an expanded strategic partnership with Globe Telecom, one of the leading service providers in the Philippines, to modernize Globe’s billing capabilities and provide the agility it needs to quickly bring new products and services to market.
The deployment is particularly significant as Globe rolls out its 5G network across the country.
Under the agreement, Amdocs will deploy its advanced real-time charging solution across Globe’s data centers. The transition will include migrating Globe’s current charging system and subscribers to the new platform, improving the resiliency and stability of Globe’s services. The implementation of Amdocs’ cloud-native, microservices-based solution will enable Globe to seamlessly deploy differentiated 5G services to consumers and enterprises across various business segments.
Raul Macatangay, Chief Information Officer at Globe Telecom, highlighted the importance of the upgrade, saying: “In the era of digital convergence, it is imperative to ensure the continuous modernization of our business support systems to embrace new business models and meet evolving customer expectations.”
“Building on our partnership with Amdocs, their 5G native charging solution will provide us the benefits of flexible, efficient real-time charging and monetization capabilities to address new business demands and customer needs,” he added.
The Amdocs and Globe partnership will deliver significant efficiencies and cost savings. Leveraging the Amdocs platform, Globe can accelerate time to market and launch new services, a key factor in staying competitive in the rapidly changing communications landscape.
Anthony Goonetilleke, president and head of strategy for the Technology Group at Amdocs, highlighted the strategic importance of the collaboration.
“We are pleased to expand our collaboration with Globe Telecom to provide them with our modern charging platform to provide seamless monetization opportunities for standalone 5G and beyond. As Globe continues on its digitalization journey, Amdocs’ platform will help them drive revenue growth and deliver compelling experiences to their customers.”
Pioneering Business Transformation with Amdocs
In parallel, Telefónica Móviles El Salvador selected Amdocs as its dedicated billing platform provider, taking an important step in transforming its business support.
The partnership will upgrade Telefónica Móviles El Salvador’s billing system, enabling the company to take advantage of new monetization opportunities brought about by 5G technology.
Telefónica Móviles El Salvador has been a key player in El Salvador’s telecommunications industry for 24 years, and this partnership with Amdocs will strengthen the company’s market leadership. The new billing platform will not only enhance the company’s current operations, but also provide the scalability it needs to expand to other countries using the same system.
Luis Del Cid, CEO of Telefónica Móviles El Salvador, expressed optimism about the partnership.
“Innovation is in our DNA and we need the best partners and the best technology to drive our business transformation. Amdocs is now our strategic partner and will help us continue to lead the telecommunications industry in El Salvador,” he said.
This partnership with Amdocs is expected to streamline Telefónica Móviles El Salvador’s operations, enabling a faster and more efficient rollout of services.
The flexibility of the platform will enable the company to explore and monetize new service offerings, further strengthening its market position.
Amdocs’ Goonetilleke added: “As Telefónica Moviles El Salvador expands its operations, we are pleased to be able to leverage our scalable, industry-proven billing platform to help the company drive revenue from new and innovative service offerings.”
“By providing a purpose-built billing platform, we can help you grow into multiple countries and currencies easily and efficiently.”
