TV Numéric uses Subscriber Management System from Danet  

25.09.07


Weiterstadt (near Frankfurt, Germany) / Paris, France 25. September 2007 - TV Numéric, the new pay TV provider in the French market, has opted for a Subscriber Authorization and Management Sys-tem of the German IT consulting and IT service provider Danet GmbH. Danet's solution will include all services around order management, customer management and billing, and is operated by the company itself as order to cash on-demand service.

TV Numéric is the third service provider in France to launch a new pay TV service. Its offer is intended to address and attract above all and primarily the families and low budget people. The bouquet will include seven chargeable TV channels (Canal J, TF6, AB1, Paris Première, Planète, LCI and Euro-sport); besides these an additional number of 18 free TV channels will be available using TV Numéric's digital receiver. TV Numéric has launched its new offer since beginning of September 2007.

The pay TV provider is banking on a lean but most efficient information technology which is reliably supported by a Subscriber Management System. The SMS system manages all pay TV-related service data by interlinking the relevant business processes. It thus will represent TV Numéric's central customer database.

Distribution will be made using the available sales channels such as the Internet, phone or selected distributor networks. Irrespective of the chosen distribution channel, new subscriptions are registered via a central Webshop which will automatically forward the subscription data to the Subscriber Management System. The SMS in turn will now trigger the delivery of both the set top box and smart cards, thus activating the new subscription at the same time. The whole customer management will be handled through a service hotline or using the self services via the Internet.

The Subscriber Management System will also support the relevant services to bill both the one-time registration fee and the monthly payable subscriber's fees. Furthermore, the SMS system will help support TV Numéric's customer service and enable them to have a comprehensive reporting.
The solution of the German IT consulting and service provider Danet has sucessfully gone through all the acceptance tests of the pay TV provider TV Numéric.

Daniel Thieriet, President and CEO at TV Numéric, comments on the pay TV provider's IT strategy: "We were looking for a supplier who was able to set up a customer management as a whole. With its solution of a Subscriber Management System Danet not only offers a state of the art IT solution but the company does also run the solution as an on-demand service. We therefore can free ourselves to fully concentrate on our core business and need not bind resources to develop the specific know-how on our own. With the use of this Subscriber Management System we can offer our clients an ideally IT supported client service."
