While voice has been traditionally priced on time, distance and event; new services present a unique set of challenges that involve more sophisticated, disciplined pricing processes, metrics and value alignment, which often demand much more complex integration requirements.
These new pricing structures are placing significant pressure on existing operational infrastructure, which were once designed for relatively stable, bounded services. Operators are rapidly moving towards service-oriented architectures such as IMS and service delivery platforms (SDPs) to facilitate rapid product development and rollout. Pricing is increasingly being positioned as a central resource within these architectures.
Highdeal is challenging marketing and IT to come up with as many pricing variable combinations as possible such as bundles/packages, sponsorships, real-time settlement with third parties and cross product promotions.
