MELBOURNE February 21, 2012Amdocs (NYSE: DOX), the leading provider of customer experience systems, today announced the launch of Amdocs Single Click Network Rollout solution, an automated planning and design solution that enables service providers to reduce the design time for new base stations and optimise configuration for LTE, 4G and 3G networks. The new operational support systems (OSS) planning solution allows network planning teams to easily scale their operations with lower capital expenditures by addressing the challenge of new LTE network rollouts and expanded Ethernet backhaul capabilities.A typical Tier 1 service provider has in excess of 10,000 new base stations to design, build, test and commission when rolling out an LTE network. Globally, according to wireless industry trade association, 4Gamericas#, some 400 service providers are preparing for LTE network rollouts in the next three to five years. Rapid rollouts are critical for operators to ensure a better customer experience and faster network monetisation. To address the time to market challenge, the Amdocs Single Click Network Rollout solution can: Cut base-station design times by up to 90 percent* by using pre-configured, automated design processes. Integration with existing Amdocs OSS modules (Amdocs Resource Manager and Amdocs Planning Engine) can further improve design times.

2012-01-24T23:00:00Z amdocs-launches-new-enterprise-solutions-to-enhance-the-business-customer-s-experience-21

MELBOURNE - January 25, 2012 - Amdocs (NYSE: DOX), the leading provider of customer experience systems, today announced the addition of two new enterprise solutions that enable service providers to better support their business customers across the entire customer lifecycle. The new Amdocs Enterprise Customer Management and Enterprise Service Fulfillment solutions complement Amdocs’ existing enterprise charging and billing offering to address the unique requirements of enterprise customers. Amdocs Enterprise Customer Management solution empowers enterprise customers to self-manage their accounts; reduces average call handling time; increases first-call resolution; cuts support costs and field service visits; and provides real-time SLA monitoring and alert notification to reduce penalties and improve customer satisfaction. Amdocs Enterprise Service Fulfillment solution integrates the ordering and fulfillment processes by utilising the Amdocs enterprise product catalog to reduce time to market and delivery lead times for complex enterprise services (e.g. multi-site VPN); automates service fulfillment including the ability to amend orders ‘in-flight’ without interrupting the process; significantly reduces the failure rates common to complex orders; and introduces Amdocs Universal Activator to converge, automate and vastly simplify network configuration across all lines of businesses and media types. Both solutions support complex business customer hierarchies and vertical industry offerings, offer scalability for high numbers of users and process volumes, and enable service providers to meet stringent service level agreements (SLAs). The new enterprise solutions are part of Amdocs’ CES portfolio, and are designed for convergence to support both enterprise and residential customers on a single, integrated system. “With consumer revenues flattening, service providers are focusing on the enterprise segment to accelerate their business and financial growth,” said Dan Colquhoun, Senior Vice President of Customer Research, Frost & Sullivan. “Success will require the deployment of new solutions like those introduced by Amdocs in order to fulfill complex services and differentiate customer service as observed in a recent survey which identified key gaps between business customers’ expectations and the services they receive.” The survey, conducted by Frost & Sullivan, highlighted: 30 percent of enterprise customers reported that order fallout occurred “fairly often”, “very often” or “always”. Less than half (45 percent) of service providers have automated systems to keep track of their contractual commitments regarding order fallout. Dissatisfaction with customer service (59 percent) and technical support (57 percent), the inability to meet contract and SLA terms (57 percent) and recurring order process problems (52 percent), were cited as the major reasons for enterprise customer churn. “To develop profitable, long-term relationships with enterprise customers, service providers must differentiate their customer experience and provide a service that is tailored to business customers’ needs,” said Rebecca Prudhomme, Amdocs vice president for product and solutions marketing. “The new Amdocs enterprise solutions enable service providers to efficiently deliver a wider range of offerings to their enterprise customers with greater service quality and the ability to create tailored, vertical market offerings to targeted segments such as finance, education and healthcare customers.” Service providers across APAC, Europe, North, Central and Latin America are already demonstratingdemand for the new solutions. Amdocs’ existing customers for enterprise solutions include some of the world’s largest service providers including AT&T, Bell Canada and TELUS. The survey results are based on qualitative surveys of director-level and above executives at 22 Tier-1 and Tier-2 service providers and 100 enterprise businesses across North America, Europe, Central and Latin America. The interviews were conducted from September to October 2011.

2011-08-18T04:47:00Z amdocs-completes-acquisition-of-bridgewater-systems-enabling-service-providers-to-redefine-the-data-experience-1

MELBOURNE August 18, 2011 Amdocs (NYSE: DOX), the leading provider of customer experience systems, today announced that it has completed the acquisition of Bridgewater Systems Corporation (TSX: BWC) ("Bridgewater"), a publicly held provider of policy management and network control solutions. Amdocs acquired 25,178,827 common shares of Bridgewater (representing 100 percent of Bridgewater’s outstanding common shares) for CAD$8.20 per share in cash, through a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of Amdocs. Prior to the acquisition, Amdocs did not own any securities of Bridgewater. The transaction is valued at approximately CAD$211 million, or CAD$139 million net of Bridgewater's cash as of June 30, 2011. The acquisition will further expand Amdocs’ Customer Experience Systems (CES) portfolio, allowing service providers to implement new value-based data monetization strategies to capitalize on the data explosion. In order to better monetize their networks and data services, service providers are moving away from unlimited data packages which render the network vulnerable to heavy usage in some cases. Instead, they want to create new value-based pricing and data monetization models in which customers will be offered personalized packages that better match revenue to their consumption behavior and usage patterns. “This strategic acquisition will enable service providers to completely redefine the real-time data experience and maximize the return on their network investments,” said Brian Shepherd, group president for Amdocs. “We are delighted to welcome Bridgewater’s highly innovative, skilled professionals to Amdocs as we continue expanding our market-leading CES portfolio.” “Following this acquisition, service providers will be able to benefit from data experience solutions based on a pre-integrated combination of Amdocs’ leading convergent charging technology and Bridgewater’s advanced policy control capabilities that address the increase in demand for high-bandwidth services and the exponential growth of smartphones and other connected devices,” said Ed Ogonek, President and CEO for Bridgewater. For example, this acquisition will enable service providers to offer many innovative, new packages and promotions to consumer and business customers, including: Ability for customers to select packages based on the type and quality of data service such as the number of films they wish to download in high definition (not just harder-to-understand metrics like size and speed of data download) Shared data allowance across multiple devices or family data packages with different policies for each family member More creative promotions based on multiple factors such as customer monetary or lifetime value, usage behavior and network status at peak and non-peak network times Improved capabilities to offer up-sell and cross-sell opportunities in real time “To successfully monetize their networks and enable a move to value-based pricing, service providers need to integrate their charging and policy systems,” said Ari Banerjee, senior analyst at Heavy Reading. “Standalone policy management provides an optimized network but not the most profitable one, while charging by itself provides monetization but does not enforce network knowledge. Successful network monetization needs these two systems to work together, which requires significant integration between the business support systems (BSS) and policy control systems. With the Bridgewater acquisition, Amdocs will be positioned to offer a pre-integrated policy management and charging solution to drive service providers’ data revenue.” Amdocs does not expect a material impact from the acquisition of Bridgewater on fiscal year 2011 or fiscal year 2012 non-GAAP earnings per share, which excludes acquisition related costs and equity-based compensation expense, net of related tax effects.The impact on GAAP results will be finalized after Amdocs completes the purchase price accounting for the acquisition. Amdocs may incur acquisition-related expense in fiscal 2011 to account for certain costs related to the acquisition. In addition to the product and solution synergies, Amdocs and Bridgewater also share numerous top-tier customers, including Bell Mobility, Sprint and Telstra.

2011-08-10T01:37:00Z survey-shows-growing-importance-of-value-added-services-for-asia-pacific-mobile-operators

MELBOURNE 10 August, 2011 Mobile operators in Asia Pacific expect their revenues from value-added services (VAS) for example mobile payments, to grow from an average 14% of all revenues today to 24% within the next three years, according to an independent survey commissioned by Amdocs in which 120 mobile operator executives participated. The largest growth in VAS revenues is forecast for India, moving from 12% of revenues today to 29% in three years’ time. Additionally, the survey found that 95% of respondents are pursuing mobile payments and most believe their portals will grow in importance over the next three years. Furthermore, 75% are pursuing mobile advertising and search strategies, with 65% reporting their subscribers would be willing to view mobile advertising in return for free content such as mobile apps or entertainment. Operators said their main business drivers for VAS are to provide a better customer experience and secure customer loyalty. “Mobile VAS, and particularly mobile payments, are gaining momentum in Asia Pacific and mobile operators believe they constitute a competitive force vis--vis other players in the market such as banks and credit-card companies on the one hand, and social networks, app stores and other service providers on the other”, says Erwann Thomassain, Head of Regional Marketing Asia Pacific, Amdocs. “As mobile operators seek to monetize VAS, Amdocs is there to support them by providing them with solutions for the creation, provision, bundling and billing of these services, as well as solutions for customer support”.

Join the Amdocs tweetchat: “Value-added services – What is the best strategy for mobile operators?” on August 10, at 9am UK, 1:30pm India, 4pm Singapore, by following the #doxchat hashtag on Twitter. Other key survey findings include: Importance of VAS: 62% of respondents say that VAS are either important or very important to their company. In Australia and India, 70% of operators regard VAS to be important while only 50% from Thailand and Vietnam believe VAS services important. Australia and India expect greatest VAS revenue growth: In Australia, the current share of revenues from this revenue stream is 23% which is expected to grow to 30% in three years’ time. However, it is in India that the largest expected growth of 17% in VAS is anticipated: From 12% at present to 29% in three years’ time. Furthermore, it appears that mobile operators have an advantage over banks in markets like India and Indonesia where a high proportion of the population is unbanked. Popular mobile payments segments: Prepaid top-ups are the most popular form of mobile payments, followed by bill payments, money transfers and billing on behalf of app stores. Anticipated conflict with finance organizations: Only 42% of respondents overall believed operators were bound to engage in conflict with banks and credit-card companies over mobile payments, although responses differed considerably across the selected markets: In Australia, only 25% of respondents agreed there would be conflict, 33% in India, 50% in Thailand and 90% in Vietnam.
