Key Benefits
Evolving technical specs and uncertainty over standards
creates greater risks to vendors. Aricent has skilled technical resources in
Switching, Messaging Based Applications, BSS/OSS Applications, and Content
Applications and IN domain with deep understanding of the technical issues.
Faster time-to-market for TSP’s because of the
available in-house Test Tools, dedicated Test Labs and experience in
Switching and IN domain. Due to Aricent’s available resources, any project
can be ramped up quickly and the turnaround time for resolving the technical
issues are faster.
Close monitoring/contribution to international
standards like ETSI/ITU-T, Bellcore, IETF
Offshore development centers, time and materials or
fixed cost/turnkey projects
