An overarching theme from this year’s TeleManagement World (TMW) was integrating business intelligence (BI) solutions into the network to provide actionable, accurate information to carriers. Network monitoring companies, billing companies and other operational support system (OSS) providers have all integrated BI capabilities into their solutions and showcased them at this year’s TMW. Also, two of the conference sessions were specifically targeted toward maximizing BI capabilities for revenue management. Although integrated analytics is not a new concept, this year it seems to have an increased in importance in the vendor solutions being positioned and sold to the service providers.
