How much of your billable usage data is dropping to the floor due to phantom traffic, misidentified interconnect records and missing usage data?

What revenue is leaking away as you add new IP-based services?

Communication service providers have discovered that to maintain a competitive edge and assure they're realizing all the revenue they're due, they need to rigorously evaluate their usage data stream. From record inception through billing-format-ready data, every control point in the process is a location for potentially significant revenue loss.

At the same time, preparing the launch of new services requires the development of reliable business rules and water-tight control points. It's mission critical: service providers must run revenue projections based upon a solid, fact-based foundation of assumptions.

That's the advanced solution TeleSciences delivers: a comprehensive approach to usage data collection, management and analysis.

The 10e Revenue Analytics solution implements custom business rules, advanced validation, cross check comparisons and detailed record matching techniques to enable service providers to continuously assess and audit the validity of the usage-based invoices service providers produce. This helps identify and minimize "revenue leakage" (billable usage which is not being included on invoices).

The 10e Revenue Analytics solution identifies lost revenue through sophisticated comparisons and analysis:

• Validates CDRs using SS7
• Compares Switch To Bill
• Compares Switch To CABS (Carrier Access Billing System)

This incorporates data from such sources information systems as SS7 records, switch CDRs (includes traditional TDM as well as NGN soft switches), and post-mediation bill feeds.

The solution also accounts for root cause sources such as LERG databases, trunk group inventory, rate tables and LRNs.

10e Revenue Analytics from TeleSciences typically uncovers errors or leakage that fall within one of four categories:

Translation Table Errors: These cause revenue leakage from such issues as incorrect call type generation, no CDR generation, and improper CIC assignment.

Call Timing: These are differences in the time points used for different call types which can result in lost revenue. For example, use of talk duration instead of network duration may result in underbilling of Access charges.

Switch Processing Capability: During periods of high call volume switches are known to generate CDR error records.

Mediation errors: These errors remove billable call records from the switch to bill stream resulting in underbilling the retail, wholesale or interconnect customer.

It offers an easy-to-use and configurable dashboard and interface for analysis. For example: generate analytic traffic reporting external vs. internal as well as originating analysis of terminating traffic.
