The Business Need

In 2004 software house and systems integrator Comarch signed an agreement for the delivery of a BSS and OSS platform with UAB Bitė Lietuva, a telecommunications operator in Lithuania providing mobile, data transfer and Internet services.

One year later, in July of 2005, an agreement for the BSS and OSS platform delivery was signed with SIA Bite Latvija, a daughter company of Bitė Lietuva established in July of 2005.

The Approach

Both Comarch projects for Bitė Group entities covered the delivery of software supporting major operational and business processes including:

Customer management processes for front office, dealer sales channels
Back office administrative processes including SIM card supply management, service related resource management, black-list integration
Retail billing process management including loading, rating and revenue management including invoicing, debt management, credit limit management and reporting
Products, tariffs and discount management
Wholesale interconnect billing processes
Mobile roaming support
End-customer self-service processes, available at manobite.lt, manabite.lv.
Mediation, collection and provisioning processes

The Implemented Products

The abovementioned functionalities were realized by installing and integrating Comarch’s award-winning software
products, including:

Comarch Billing System, providing retail billing and revenue management functionalities, handling service providers
Comarch Customer Management, supporting front office and dealer channels with access to major end-customer
related processes

Since July 2006, Bitė Group including UAB Bitė Lietuva and SIA Bite Latvija has been offering high-quality services to their end customers and service providers on the basis of Comarch’s BSS and OSS platform.
