Under the terms of the agreement Azure will be providing billing verification for operators, using ESI’s ExpeRA invoice verification tool, therefore further expanding its revenue-assurance portfolio.

Azure’s end-to-end revenue-assurance product portfolio for current-generation networks includes Data Integrity, Wholesale and Interconnect Billing, International Settlements, Fraud Management, Mediation Management, Translation and Rating, Event Integrity and Route Optimisation.
Saul Nurtman, senior vice president of products at Azure Solutions, said: “Billing verification plays a very important part in revenue assurance, as operators need to effectively locate billing discrepancies otherwise they risk losing significant revenue, possibly on an ongoing basis. We are very pleased to be working with ESI it continues Azure’s strategy of working with partners to provide customers with best-in-class solutions.”
