GENEVA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 11, 1999--

Solect Technology Group, the world's leading provider of IP billing and customer care software, today announced that Tele Danmark A/S, an international provider of telecommunication and data communications, has implemented IAF Horizon(TM) to manage its production of IP services for several European markets.

The billing and self care solution allows Tele Danmark to produce for multiple markets across a common platform. The implementation of IAF Horizon will enable scalable support for current businesses and dramatically reduce operational costs.

"The implementation of IAF Horizon allows us to increase profitability by reducing operating costs through the customer self-care module and manage all our hosted IP services within a streamlined network," said Hans Moller, senior vice president, Tele Danmark Internet. "The ability to support multiple business units on a common platform was a key requirement for us. The Solect solution was unique in that it could be rapidly deployed, while maintaining flexibility, scalability and adaptability we required."

"Service providers today want to provide more value added services, expand into new market segments and manage their offering with a cost effective business operating system, and that's a tall order," said James MacDonald, vice president of Sales and Marketing at Solect. "IAF Horizon meets all these requirements. It's a carrier grade billing system that allows the necessary adaptability service providers demand for their evolving business models. We are delighted that Tele Danmark has chosen the Solect solution and look forward to their market success."

Solect's IAF Horizon is a carrier grade billing system that enables service providers to introduce innovative new business models, such as hosting, allowing them to increase their subscriber base by expanding into new market segments. IAF Horizon features and functionality include:

--   The Service Management module provides the most flexible platform
     for defining and registering new services, using a dynamic
     attributes model and the IAF Horizon Provisioning Data Collectors
     (PDCs). The dynamic model manages all customer attributes that
     can be set up such as account, contract and services. This allows
     service providers to differentiate service offerings when
     targeting market segments such as retail, wholesale, hosted ISPs
     and packaged applications.

--   The IAF Horizon PDC operates like a plug-in, offering service
     providers the opportunity to add new services without revising
     their existing databases, which enables new services to be
     configured rapidly allowing for quick time-to-market and
     substantial cost savings.

--   The IAF Horizon Product Console allows the service provider's
     non-technical marketing managers to create product offerings,
     pricing and bundles quickly and easily through an HTML graphical
     user interface.

--   The Rule-Based Rating Engine was co-developed with Telcordia
     Technologies (formerly Bellcore). This real-time rule-based
     rating engine allows service providers to develop complex rating
     rules in a simple logical manner.

--   IAF Horizon Customer Care includes a highly customizable HTML
     interface application for Customer Service Representatives (CSRs)
     and Self-Care.
