Telcordia bags multi-million dollar contract from Aircel

Communication software service provider Telecordia today said it has received a five-year multi-million dollar contract from telecom firm Aircel.

"Aircel has awarded Telcordia a five-year, multi-million dollar contract for Telcordia Real-Time Charging, a flexible charging and policy control solution for their mobile prepaid subscribers," Telcordia said in a statement.

Aircel is a joint venture between Malaysia's Maxis Communications and India's Apollo Hospitals Group.

The solution will power Aircel's pan-India network rollout and support the introduction of interactive real-time services and tariff plans.

"Telcordia implemented the entire solution in record time. The prepaid solution is flexible and vendor agnostic, which means that we are able to easily and quickly implement new service offers, which will attract more customers and build our market share," Aircel Chief Operating Officer Gurdeep Singh said.
