2020 VISIONARY SPOTLIGHT AWARDS | CHANNEL VISION Analytics, AI and Machine Learning Back Office and OSS Innovation Most Responsive Supplier Channel Teams Altaworx AMOP Jasper Optimization uses API connections to extract SIM usage and rate plans and optimize all SIM cards to the best rate while taking into consideration pooling and overage to reduce the carrier/customer bill to the lowest possible amount. The deployment automatically pulls SIM cards and rate plans, then runs a proprietary algorithm to validate the usage on each SIM and find the best rate plan available. The algorithm considers that sometimes it is more cost effective to pay overage than it is to just put the cards on a rate plan that covers the data usage. Data pooling across SIM cards is also taken into account before each SIM card’s rate plan is updated via an API push before the end of the period. Precision Telecom Technologies Precision was approached by a small, growing service provider that needed to upgrade to an advanced SaaS back office and billing solution. The solution needed to have an integration that would allow full line-item exporting into its QuickBooks Desktop system. Precision’s developers completed the QuickBooks integration and then onboarded the new client to the company’s Telecommunications BackOffice Solution (TBS), empowering ownership to grow fast, make acquisitions and integrate them into their back office.
