Revenue Assurance Systems

Revenue Assurance Systems are just beginning to appear in Russia, but many operators are already contemplating having them implemented. These systems enable continuous monitoring of the entire revenue generation chain, including switching equipment operation checks, independent audit of interface platform operation and the billing and bill presentment validation module. Being tuned to the existing information flows, these systems check information on provided services for internal completeness and consistency and enable correlation of information from different systems, ensuring timely detection of faults. Once set up, these systems generate warnings of deviations from normal reference behavior.

Detecting data inconsistencies or discrepancies and providing technical staff with timely warnings is just one of the tasks of revenue assurance systems. Moving to proactive process management requires powerful analytical tools that would enable comprehensive analysis of detected faults, reveal event trends, correlate events and determine patterns. Setting up revenue assurance processes is a comprehensive issue that encompasses virtually all aspects of the operator’s business and requires an equally comprehensive approach.
