TSG Advanced Billing

TSG’s Billing Saves Money—Lots Of It !
For traditional wireline and wireless carriers incomplete call records, combined with incomplete OCN rating & mediation means inaccurate billing, lost revenue, and the inability to validate incoming bills from outside suppliers. The result? Hundreds of thousands of dollars can be lost annually. In
some cases, the inability to quickly accrue for costs, audit invoices and perform specific revenue and call data studies also leads to legal exposure.

 

TSG's billing architectures enables rigorous cross-checking of wholesale/accounting data specifically CABS / EMI LERG management and more importantly intrastate rating on the switch side.


As an integral part of our product suite, TSG’s advanced billing platform offers traffic analysis, fraud management, reporting, and revenue assurance.

TSG’s advanced billing platform reads 100% of a carrier’s Call Detail Records, batched or directly from switches, to provide service providers with call detail and call summary data quickly and accurately.


 
The TSG advanced billing platform solution delivers:

Revenue Assurance
Revenue Assurance is a term used to describe many types of activities designed to maximize revenue from monthly operations. The largest area of focus in all Revenue Assurance activities is the accurate recording, rating, and reporting of inter-carrier billing. An accurate,
timely and accessible reporting engine enables superior billing, operations, network and finance systems tracking.

Fast, Accurate Cost Accrual
TSG’s advanced billing platform tracks all call transactions, enabling accurate verification of incoming bills and operational expense forecasts. TSG supports audit of billing to and from partners and suppliers by capturing all call records and near-instantaneous comparison against industry and proprietary databases. The system automatically calculates and reconciles taxes, tariffs, roaming and other charges between partners or jurisdictions. This can greatly reduce
operational expenses.

Usage Studies
TSG’s Advanced billing platform tracks and reports all usage in any regulatory category, on every trunk group in your network, thereby ensuring proper filings, excellent audit defense, and successful compliance checks.
LERG file format specification. The local Exchange Routing Guide (LERG) is the Rosetta stone of the North American telephone system; it is the database that enables switches to communicate with tandems and with each other TSG can support your LERG update requirements along with LRN dips for CDR mediation.

Reduced Legal Exposure
With sweeping new data storage and retrieval laws in addition to stringent industry, financial and technical regulations—TSG helps minimize your legal risk with fast, precise reporting and outsourced data storage. There’s no need for a massive investment in IT or support staff in order to comply. Spot checks, audits and official data inquiries can be managed routinely with minimal effort.
 
Service Level Agreements
TSG provides strict service level agreements that guarantee fast response to search requests and quick turnaround on all reports. This is of particular importance with the current anti-terrorism regulations, which require service providers to store two years of in depth call records and supply specific call data quickly. With TSG, you’ll save time and money while avoiding costly penalties and lengthy discovery processes.

Reduced Fraud Liability
TSG has an intelligent fraud module, capable of learning each customer’s calling patterns and identifying anomalies—automatically alerting fraud technicians when abnormalities occur.

New Wireless Service Monitoring
Short messaging service (SMS) and multimedia messaging service (MMS) usage can be timed, rated, recorded, and tracked against customer patterns to expand your product marketing potential and network efficiency.

Quick Return on Investment
By leveraging TSG’s revenue assurance capabilities alone, the increased accuracy in billing typically provides a return on investment in as little as one to three months. Add the full array of TSG capabilities, and your company will realize additional benefits in compliance, costs savings and expanded product offerings.
