  • With the comprehensive suite of TM Forum-certified Oracle solutions, SaskTel can:
    • Streamline order and service management through a single touch order capture process, increasing its ability to handle large order volumes, reducing order fallout and improving the customer experience
    • Enable detailed upfront credit checks to help simplify the order process
    • Ensure customer data accuracy across channels with streamlined and integrated solutions
    • Enhance ability to provision Internet, voice and next-generation data services while also adding robust rating, charging and revenue management capabilities to help increase cross- and up-sell opportunities
    • Improve supply chain management capabilities to more quickly deliver products and services to customers and enhance the customer experience
  • SaskTel also plans to implement Oracle ATG Web Commerce to further enhance the customer experience by providing consistent product, pricing and promotional messaging across assisted and self-service channels.
  • SaskTel and Oracle will be in booth 31 at TM Forum Management World in Nice to discuss the implementation process and SaskTel's enhanced service creation, order delivery and customer experience environment.
