TCAST Communications Implements TeleComp, a Payphone Compensation
Custom Reporting Application
Nashville,
TN — October 17, 2006 - Nashville-based
Equinox Information Systems today announced the development
of a new application to work in conjunction with its TeleLink
mediation system. The new application, named TeleComp, has been
licensed by TCAST Communications to provide detailed reporting
on usage data involving pay phones. By storing pay phone usage
data in a private data warehouse, the system allows for easy
reporting on data from both switch-based resellers (SBRs) and
prepaid calling card companies (PPCCs).
The
key features of TeleComp are:
- Reporting
any discrepancies between SBR and PPCC data.
-
Identifying payphone service provider (PSP) ownership and
the appropriate rate calls for billing.
-
Generating reports to audit usage, fulfill billing requirements,
and spot fraudulent activity.
"Equinox
is a trusted partner for software development because of their
vast experience in telecom data processing and software development,"
said Mark Jordan, CEO of TCAST Communications. "TeleComp
will play a key role in allowing us to make better business
decisions related to our operations involving pay phones. We
look forward to working with Equinox again on future software
application projects."
"We
have enjoyed collaborating with TCAST to develop TeleComp,"
noted David West, Executive Vice President of Equinox. "Expanding
our line of products to include custom reporting on pay phone
usage data is a natural step towards our goal of providing the
widest range of software solutions in the communications industry."
