Bath, UK, 20 November 2012 – Evolving Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: EVOL), a leading provider of strategic solutions to telecom operators worldwide, today announced that the Company’s Tertio® Service Activation solution will help drive a long standing South Asian customer’s launch of new services on its next-generation network. Evolving Systems’ convergent mediation solution, Evident®, will also be used to support voice, data and content services with real-time quality of service billing.

After carrying out an in-depth evaluation, the operator highlighted the need for a centralised provisioning system and selected Evolving Systems’ Tertio as the best platform to support its move to a next-generation 3G-ready network. Underlining the strength of its longstanding relationship, Evolving Systems was one of very few vendors retained by the operator through its network transition process.

The network upgrade will deliver increased capacity and ensure the operator is ready to accommodate 3G services when they come on stream. The company expects to grow its subscriber base from its current figure of approximately 29 million as it expands market share through the new network. Tertio will be used to activate all new subscribers, playing a key role in managing expected future network growth.

As part of the upgrade, a new home location register (HLR) will be deployed, allowing the operator to migrate subscribers from the old database onto a new one.   

Thad Dupper, Chairman, President and CEO of Evolving Systems, remarked, “It is a testament to the strength of our relationship with this customer, as well as the trust they have in our Tertio solution to support next generation services, that the operator has chosen to retain our solution through this key stage in its development.”
