Atos Origin’s Revenue Assurance solution comprises processes that ensure that all billable activities are captured, rated and billed accurately in accordance with customer agreements and legislation (e.g. Sarbanes Oxley). It also includes provisioning for fraud detection, bad debt management and cost management, to reduce revenue leakage and improve revenue from other carriers. With this solution, operators can be sure that their customer data is accurate and received in a timely way, and that each step of the service delivery is processed correctly and on time.
Atos Origin also offers company-wide fraud-related expertise and is a leading provider of EIR (Equipment Identity Register) systems for mobile operators. To counter the pre-paid fraud typical of scratch card distribution, AO also has an e-voucher service that distributes PINs electronically to small handheld terminals located in the retailer.
