Infonova was founded in 1989 and provides IT services and software development for customers from all industries and the public sector. Infonova’s first BSS was conceived and built for IP services at the incumbent carrier Telekom Austria in the mid 90’s which resulted in the platform being specifically designed to deal with the complexity found in such incumbent environments.
Infonova has also played a substantive role in IP leadership. The Infonova group worked with world’s standards bodies: the ITU, the IETF and ETSI, holding the Vice Chair for TIPHON that was created in ITU WG6 and engaged with IETF to deliver the ENUM standards. The first global ENUM service VisionNG using +878 (granted by the ITU) was sponsored by a dozen carriers and implemented on the Infonova platform implementation at Telekom Austria.
Consequently, Infonova’s latest front & back office BSS Release 6 platform contains sophisticated levels of BSS functionality that supports the convergence of Next Gen, IP and legacy services. The BSS Release 6 platform uses the latest technologies to deliver the capability and flexibility to support multiple tenant operators running multiple order to cash business models simultaneously. Infonova BSS Release 6 enables an ecosystem orchestration for telcos, Mediacos, Utilities and other third parties to participate as suppliers and retail tenants in simple and complex two sided business models.
Over fifteen years of continuous improvements have been incorporated into Infonova’s BSS product. Additionally, with the recent re-engineering into the latest IT technologies Infonova’s BSS has been ‘future proofed’ for the years ahead.
