BSS solutions supplier Intec has announced the availability of its new Roaming solution, designed to help remove the complexity from inter-operator roaming revenue settlement.

According to the company, the solution is compliant with GSM TAP standards, as well as supporting the CDMA CIBER protocol, which allows operators to process traffic as quickly and efficiently as possible, regardless of the type of network they operate.

The company's Roaming revenue management and settlement solution allows operators to be less reliant on third-party data clearing houses, in this way improving cash flow and financial transparency. By bringing control of the roaming settlement processes in-house, operators can integrate roaming as part of a broader wholesale management strategy.

In addition, for a group of operators within a parent company, the solution can function as a group-wide clearing house, providing clear economies of scale and simplified roaming business processes. For existing Intec wholesale business customers, Intec Roaming provides a cost-effective path to taking charge of all aspects of their roaming operations.

The new solution offers support for the GSM Association-defined 'Rejects and Returns Procedure' (RAP), which provides operators with a mechanism to handle erroneous TAP files and call event records. This improves inter-operator invoicing and settlement and lowers operating costs.

The solution also supports the new requirements for near real-time roaming data exchange (NRTRDE), which is key to minimising potential revenue loss associated with pre-paid roaming.

No pricing details were disclosed.
