CGI's modular rating, billing and order management solution

Technology convergence has brought promising business opportunities to industries of all kinds. The ability of telecommunication service providers to offer triple- and quadruple-play offerings - the combination of fixed, mobile, Internet and television - can drive customer preference and profitability. Yet aging infrastructures and cultural hurdles remain, resulting in an inability to take full advantage of this digital opportunity.

Tapestry

CGI's Tapestry is a suite of convergent applications that cover rating, billing and order management. With Tapestry, service providers can improve and support the back-end operations that drive convergence—without costly investments.

Scalable, flexible and proven, Tapestry easily integrates with existing solutions and promotes the rapid introduction of products and services through the use of multiple flexible frameworks, allowing business users to add changes to the system without the need for IT experts and code changes. Implemented as a full solution or through the selection of applicable modules, Tapestry can be tailored for particular needs. It also offers product solutions out of the box that are designed to support specific functions.
