NATEC is a R&D Center for MEF.DEV company, EU-based provider of BSS software development solutions for communications service providers (CSPS). NATEC’s primary offerings include WideCoup BSS solution and MEF.DEV platform, which is a framework that can be used to support incumbent and legacy BSS solutions through wide number of API access points. The solution is built on open architecture frameworks, which CSPs can link to their existing BSS systems. This can help CSPs develop and expand the capabilities of their incumbent solutions bypassing the solution provider, which will help accelerate transformation and lower support costs.

The open processes, swift time-to-market and agility as the primary differentiators of NATEC solution. Open API MEF.DEV platform can reduce concept-to-cash timeframe from months to few weeks, which can lower costs and improve the competitiveness of your business offers. NATEC is a digital transformation partner especially for telcos with large numbers of legacy systems. The MEF.DEV solution is specifically designed to support telecom processes across multiple lines of business.

NATEC prioritizes its open process adherence as a key differentiator for its services. The open process capability provides a software development approach for operators’ BSS implementations that are not tied to any proprietary technologies or platforms. For example, the operator will be able to fulfill its business requirements within its chosen BSS vendor solutions in the MEF.DEV platform. This helps prevent vendor lock-in and improves functional modularity and can help reduce the impact of siloed systems.

The Open API MEF.DEV platform adheres to an agile development process that is based on continuous integration principles. This enables operators to rapidly iterate through multiple prototypes, swiftly implementing bug fixes and uncovering new requirements.

An important benefit of the Open API MEF.DEV platform if the ability to significantly reduce the support costs, especially for legacy systems where the alternative is to pay for expensive customized maintenance contracts. The Open API MEF.DEV platform also provides support for legacy integration with new systems.

WideCoup BSS is a BSS solution that provides CSPs access to key functional capabilities including fulfilment, assurance, service management, and billing. Together these provide a standard template for multi-vendor hybrid deployments. It can support flexible billing relationships which can enable multiple business models including B2C, B2B, and B2B2X value chains. In addition it also supports offline and real-time charging with rules-based discounting.

Open API Platform

The Open API MEF.DEV is a development, hosting and application management platform that can help operators accelerate their transformation of legacy BSS functions. The platform supports domain-driven design and business analysis with database and model-first code generation capability and unified development process. It provides an open standards-based approach to build software. The MEF.DEV has wrapped the WideCoup BSS core for managing into multi-vendor hybrid infrastructure and includes assets such as open APIs, information models, and support for DevOps deployment approach.

Case Study

NATEC Enables Kyivstar (VEON) to Collaborate Internally on BSS

Kyivstar, which is part of the VEON group of companies, has implemented a collaborative development approach in one of its major projects to migrate tariffs and contract billing functions to new platforms from its legacy BIS system. The migration was managed in stages to the WideCoup Billing solution using the Open API MEF.DEV serverless development platform. In the next phase, Kyivstar migrated non-telco services to a new platform

“We’ve joined forces with the NATEC team to run complex swap project for the systems which were implemented almost 20 years ago and were intensively developed almost till the moment of swap. It allowed us to implement extremally complex integrational project in shortest possible terms. We’ve combined a number of Legacy systems that ensure the operation of many services with a new service development platform of Mef.Dev and complete migration successfully. Now systems are working stable and delivering excellent business results”
