Openet, a leader in the supply of Digital and 5G BSS, today announced that it is working with MDS Global, a BSS-as-a-service provider, to deliver a Policy and Charging Control solution (PCC) to redONE, a Malaysian MVNO. The partnership will see Openet and MDS Global help redONE expand its regional footprint to Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia and the Philippines.
Openet will support MDS Global as it rolls out its VNOnDemand BSS-as-a-service solution for redONE. Openet will provide its real-time charging and policy control systems.
Openet and MDS Global were chosen by redONE for their ability to meet the flexibility, functionality and service requirements of redONE. MDS Global’s VNonDemand solution is specifically configured to provide fixed and mobile Virtual Network Operators and Enterprises (VNO/Es) and brand entrants the freedom they need to deliver profitable services. The solution uses a pay-as-you-grow model, and manages monetisation, assurance and data-driven engagement, while minimising new expenditure and skills for the operator.
redONE is the first MVNO in Malaysia to provide affordable post-paid services and a variety of other competitive mobile plans that traditional mobile network operators do not usually feature, including unlimited calls even with a zero-credit balance, and a paperless postpaid sales platform.
Farid Yunus, Group CEO, redONE
To get where we are today in Malaysia, we engineered a complex BSS system in-house. With our regional expansion and growing subscribers, however, we now require strong best-of-breed technology partners.
Paul Saunders, GVP Sales and Services, Openet
It’s an exciting time for redONE; the MVNO has seen successes in Malaysia and Singapore and is now ready to expand its regional footprint. To do that, it needs the right digital BSS solution to be able to properly monetise these new opportunities.
