Service Pricing and Billing Automated

Data-driven billing from data centers and clouds to network infrastructure.

 

Effective, timely, and flexible service billing 

Fujitsu needed automation for billing to gain efficiency and improve quality. Manual processes were replaced with end-to-end automation. The automation covers reading usage data from source devices and operations and matching it automatically to customer agreement. With Good Sign's solution, Fujitsu now offers its customers accurate and transparent billing with self-service tools.

Challenge

Intelligent and Automated Billing System Required

Fujitsu Nordic's invoicing used to be weeks behind the actual service delivery. Basic manual billing data collection and billing were eating up too many resources. With up to 20 persons managing the billing and trying to tackle the complicated client contracts and detailed billing requirements, top management at Fujitsu realized that the entire process had to be more efficient and effective. They needed a next-generation mediation and billing system.
