Tech Mahindra, a leading provider of consulting and restructuring solutions in the field of digital transformation, announced today the successful implementation of the MVNE (Mobile Virtual Network Enabler) digital platform for Sunrise.
Based in Zurich, Sunrise is the largest private telecommunications operator in Switzerland, offering industry-leading mobile, internet, TV, and fixed network services to both individual and business customers.
The cloud-based MVNE platform will allow Sunrise to provide simplified customer pathways for MVNOs (Mobile Virtual Network Operators). This implementation will help MVNOs accelerate their market entry, optimize their technological architecture, and reduce costs. As a result, Sunrise will be able to achieve conflict-free MVNE operations with natural transitions. Additionally, the platform ensures robust data protection, ensuring the security and integrity of data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requirements.
Tech Mahindra delivered the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) for this platform in less than nine months. The platform was then commercially implemented by Sunrise, integrating the first MVNO on this platform, a distributor of subscription services.
This collaboration aligns with Tech Mahindra’s NXT.NOW™ approach, which aims to enhance “Customer Centricity” and focuses on investing in emerging technologies and solutions that accelerate digital transformation and meet evolving customer needs.
Vikram Nair, President of Business in the EMEA region at Tech Mahindra, stated, “Seamlessly onboarding MVNOs onto their network poses a challenge for telecommunications operators, as it is a complex, time-consuming, and costly process in the long run. The need of the hour is to leverage a fully digital, comprehensive Business Support Systems (BSS) platform based on microservices and Open API standards for increased flexibility and scalability. Our BSS platform implementation significantly reduced the time for MVNO onboarding for Sunrise. This achievement further strengthens our long-standing partnership with them.”
Robert Redeleanu, Chief Business Officer at Sunrise, commented, “Tech Mahindra has fully met our expectations by delivering a robust and ideal MVNE (Mobile Virtual Network Enabler) solution to usher in a new digital era for our MVNO partners. This modern solution has helped us deliver fully digitized customer experiences. We look forward to leveraging this platform in our wholesale and B2B sectors to offer new products and solutions.”
