Paris, November 17, 2009 – Alcatel-Lucent (Euronext Paris and NYSE:
ALU) has been selected by Vietnam Mobile Services Company (VMS), a major
operator in Vietnam, to deliver its highly configurable Converged Payment
solution that will enable VMS to broaden its services portfolio to 54 million
pre- and post-paid mobile subscribers.
To support the rapid subscriber growth of VMS, Alcatel-Lucent will deploy
its 8610 Instant Convergent Charging Suite (ICC) over 100% of the entire
network. The ICC, which enables real-time rating and charging for voice and
data services, will allow VMS to quickly bring to market new convergent mobile
prepaid and post-paid services. Alcatel Lucent will also undertake the design,
project management, integration, installation and commissioning of the
solution.
“With this win, Alcatel-Lucent strengthens its foothold as a leading vendor
in the Vietnam telecoms market. As the trusted solution vendor of VMS, we are
committed to helping them develop and evolve their networks to provide new
features and services to an ever-expanding subscriber base,” said Sean Dolan,
president of Alcatel-Lucent’s activities in Asia-Pacific.
