Joint winners of "Best Going the Extra Mile" category for improved performance levels and cost reductions; third consecutive year Amdocs wins this award
ST. LOUIS and SOFIA, Bulgaria, April 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Amdocs (NASDAQ: DOX), the leading provider of customer experience systems and services, and Mobiltel (Mtel), the largest mobile service provider in Bulgaria, are the joint winners of the "Best Going the Extra Mile" category in the global 2014 Outsourcing Excellence Awards. These awards recognize the world's best managed services relationships, highlighted by the implementation of best practices and the achievement of compelling value. Amdocs was also a winner of the 2013 and 2012 Outsourcing Excellence Awards, in partnership with customers.
Amdocs is providing Mtel with a full managed services solution, including application development, integration management, testing and hardware procurement, maintenance, as well as daily operations for Mtel's data center, disaster recovery and business support systems (BSS) across all the company's lines of business. Amdocs has also taken full accountability for third-party functions. As a result, Mtel has improved its operational and business performance levels and reduced costs in several areas, including system and service availability, problem resolution, time to market for new and bundled services, bill accuracy and number of customer calls to its call centers.
"Our engagement with Amdocs is a key element in our strategy of consolidating operational areas to become a true, multi-play provider," said Horst Pertl, chief technology officer at Mobiltel, which alongside wireless, also offers fixed, broadband Internet and IPTV services and is one of the largest affiliates in the Telekom Austria Group. "We chose Amdocs for the strength of their innovative managed services methodologies and business process best practices, proven at tier-one operators around the world. Business and operational results one-and-a-half years into the relationship have consistently exceeded expectations."
"This is the third consecutive year Amdocs has won the Outsourcing Excellence Award in partnership with one of our customers - a testament to Amdocs' ability to deliver outstanding business value," said Rebecca Prudhomme, vice president of product and solutions marketing at Amdocs. "We are extremely proud of this achievement, and of our part in helping Mtel achieve impressive performance results and an efficient cost structure, all the while keeping the customer experience at the center of its strategy with improved customer service levels and differentiating bundles at lower tariffs."
