Powering ‘Airtel Advantage’: How REVE Systems Enabled a Self-Serving Wholesale Transformation
Ranked as India's 2nd most valuable brand, Bharti Airtel Limited is a renowned global telecommunications company with operations in 18 nations across Asia and Africa. The company also positions itself among the top 3 mobile service providers globally in terms of subscribers. With the digital wave riding every industry, Airtel realized that the manual processes in its global wholesale operation must be replaced with a unified self-serving digital platform.
Slow Interconnection and Transaction Among B2B Carrier Partners Because of Manual Processes, Lack of Real-Time Monitoring, and Fragmented Accounting.
For telecom giants like Bharti Airtel, managing multiple wholesale services through separate vendor platforms posed significant operational roadblocks. Each service with distinct accounting systems, interconnection protocols, and technical expertise, leads to a highly fragmented operational environment. The lack of a unified system not only increased overheads but also resulted in data silos, making cross-service integration, reporting, and decision-making both time-consuming and error-prone. Interconnection processes remained slow and paperwork-heavy, introducing delays in partner onboarding and increasing the risk of configuration errors.
Moreover, the postpaid nature of service provisioning exposed Airtel to considerable financial risks in the absence of real-time usage monitoring and credit control. The inability to generate consolidated invoices or view traffic statistics in real time further complicated revenue assurance efforts.
These limitations directly impacted partner experience—partners seeking multi-service deals faced a disjointed journey across different platforms, inconsistent support mechanisms, and billing confusion. Scaling operations and launching new services quickly also proved cumbersome, as each required a dedicated setup and separate management systems.
