Interconnect Business Optimization
Challenges created from the evolution of global telecommunications deregulation, technological change, and shrinking margins have caused telecommunications carriers to seek new ways to more effectively optimize their wholesale businesses with real-time business decision support tools.

A vibrant new software market called Interconnect Business Optimization (IBO) has emerged which enables more efficient management of carrier-to-carrier relationships.  IBO deals with the improvement of processes within carrier operations as well as with the analysis tools needed to detect and remedy areas of potential revenue leakage or cost inefficiency. IBO enables interconnect carriers to manage all carrier relations processes from beginning to end, including the ability to:
  • Proactively manage volume commitments 
  • Quickly detect and correct negative margin relationships 
  • Dynamically and proactively optimize traffic routing 
  • Identify arbitrage opportunities 
  • Capitalize on structuring and managing inter-carrier agreements 
  • Audit all vendor invoices 
  • Monitor and enforce quality of service parameters with vendors
  • Assure revenue streams through innovative, differentiated services  
  • Successfully optimize their interconnect business
