New Win & Important Upgrade
In the second quarter 2010 MIND secured one new European customer, as well as a solution upgrade with an existing African customer.
The new win is with a telecom vendor that has been awarded the prime contractor role in a project that is financed by the European Union. We are proud to have been chosen, following a lengthy selection process that had started almost two years ago. MIND will provide an end-to-end Billing and Customer Care solution for handling both prepaid and postpaid models. MIND enables the telecom operator to implement advanced rating schemes for the latest technology infrastructure being installed, based on IMS services: Voice, Video and IM; and Data services based on xDSL and WiMAX.
The upgrade is with a South African carrier providing a full suit of ISP services and VoIP solutions primarily to corporate customers. The rating and billing of voice services have been handled by the MIND system since the launch in 2005, while other solutions were used for data services. Following the decision to expand its service offering as well as consolidate all systems into a single platform, MIND was chosen as the converged platform. Migrating to MINDBill version 7 will enable cost efficiencies, eliminate duplicate roles, increase resource utilization and save on the overall operating expenses. At the same time the carrier will benefit from the flexibility of our product catalog and configurable rating metrics that will enable the swift rollout of competitive new marketing campaigns.
Monica Iancu (formerly Monica Eisinger), Chairperson and CEO, commented: "We are pleased that in these economic conditions we continue with our execution of positive cash flow and that during the quarter we succeeded to close additional business, but unfortunately at the same time we lost one US customer that was under a managed service agreement with our UK acquired entity. While we believe that the market is not strong enough to enable growth, we continue to focus on our targets: satisfied customers, successful project implementations, winning new business and positive cash flow. We continue to believe that as always these targets build our great company culture and the unprecedented spirit and team effort drive towards a successful future."
