Tigo Rwanda has partnered with Ericsson to completely overhaul its Business Support System (BSS) ecosystem.
According to Ericsson, Tigo Rwanda is the first operator across the Millicom group that has transformed its BSS operations and gone live with Ericsson's 'as a Service' model for its complete BSS needs.
The solution covers the full spectrum of charging, billing, provisioning, mediation and roaming functionality combined with advanced customer care and self-care solutions for management and ordering of services.
The partnership enables Tigo to better serve its customers with new and innovative offerings combined with shorter time to market, improved customer experience and increased operational efficiency.
