Tango Telecom Customer Success Story
obi Axiata grows Revenues from Mobile Data
Services by 90% with Innova ve Pricing Plans and
Dynamic Self-Care
Our customer, Robi Axiata Ltd, wanted to increase mobile data usage amongst its subscriber base, to drive
revenues and to grow its market share. The operator wished to deliver choice, flexibility and visibility to its 24
million subscribers in order to s mulate mobile data usage and mone se its 3G network.
The main requirement was for an integrated standards-based Policy Control
and Charging Pla orm for handling both prepaid and postpaid subscribers.
The exis ng camel-based charging system was limited to volume-based
charging only and could not provide the flexibility, the ease of opera on
and the service velocity needed to execute the desired sophis cated data
plans and promo ons.
Robi also wished to manage its own data plans inhouse and to launch
disrup ve plans such as me based plans, service-specific plans, turboboosts and ered service level packages into the marketplace on a
regular basis without requiring an arduous and lengthy change request
