Revenue Assurance

Revenue management continues to be a financial priority for key provider revenue streams, including emerging and more risky revenue streams such as mobile content, Triple Play and SmartGrid. Our revenue assurance solution addresses any level of complexity and can find the incremental cash from operations to offset revenue and margin pressures in today’s business climate. Although the overall goal of reducing leakage is consistent, the methods and capabilities to maximize revenue performance have changed, shifting the requirements:

1. From limited sampling to 100% investigations
2. From a reactive capability to a systematic analytic and control model
3. From silos to a flexible capability that can extend across the entire range of the order-to-cash process – or in the case of mobile content, to the extended order-to-cash process, including the analysis of the contracts between the providers and content partners
4. From separating usage and flat-rate analytics to conducting integrated usage, transaction, flat rate analytics, and fair use policy analytics from one analytic environment
5. From depending on retroactive re-billing to achieve gains, to accelerating the resolution process by resolving issues within the current billing or contract cycle.

The Lavastorm Analytic Platform fully addresses these changing needs by delivering a full suite of usage, transaction and subscriber revenue management analytics, enabling both ad hoc analytics and automated controls to maximize the opportunity for financial and operational gains.
