KPN OPTIMIZES MULTI-NATIONAL CORPORATE CUSTOMER MANAGEMENT WITH A COMARCH
SOLUTION
Comarch delivers a comprehensive set of BSS modules to help KPN lower operational costs’, improve
customer satisfaction and launch new services faster.
KPN discovered a market opportunity for managed mobile services and began delivering mobile communications to
European multinational companies. Resultantly, end customers benefited from the significant reduction in overall
costs of mobile communications within the company. Instead of having many providers from various nations, they
were provided with one contract, a unified service in every country, as well as advanced self-service and mobile
telephony cost reporting functionalities.
- The reason KPN decided to cooperate with Comarch was due to the competitive advantages offered by the
proposed solution. The components of KPN’s previous BSS system required vast amounts of manual work being
carried out by its users. The time needed to introduce improvements was too extensive. Maintenance costs were high
and still rising. Finally, a decision was made to purchase a new, integrated solution, and Comarch matched our
requirements perfectly. Further more Comarch proofed to be very willing in meeting our requirements – states Cees
Versteeg, Director IT and Operations, KPN Managed Mobile Solutions.
The competitive advantages of the solution that influenced KPN’s decision included an effective relationship between
quality and price. The delivered solution was extremely well integrated, and was the most flexible and comprehensive
out of all the solutions that were short listed. The self-service and portfolio management functionalities were also
positively evaluated. Further important factors influencing KPN’s decision was the proximity of one of Comarch’s
offices (in Belgium and Poland) and the possibility to outsource all aspects associated with maintaining and managing
applications to the Comarch Data Center.
- With the Comarch solution, KPN will lower operational costs in the long-term and improve customer satisfaction
thanks to error prevention and customer self care functionalities. Additionally, the solution is expected to lead to
reducing time-to-market for new portfolio features and a significant efficiency improvement - explains Paweł Lamik,
CRM & Self Care Product Manager, Comarch SA.
The following modules of the Comarch BSS Suite were implemented at KPN: Comarch Convergent Billing,
Comarch Customer Management, Comarch Billing Mediation, Comarch Corporate Self Care, Comarch
Data Analysis and Reporting, and the Enterprise Service Bus. Apart from the implementation of the Comarch BSS
Suite, the contract also covered such services as business analysis, migration and integration, as well as operational
support. The whole solution is hosted at the Comarch Data Center and is provided as a managed service.
