("Cerillion" or "the Company")
Cerillion, the billing, charging and customer relationship management software solutions provider, is pleased to announce that it has secured a major contract worth an initial £5.1m with the Danish telecom and utility company, SE Group. This new win, reflecting the Company's trend towards larger deal sizes, supports existing market forecasts.
The contract covers the supply and installation of Cerillion's Enterprise BSS/OSS* suite. A significant proportion of revenue will be recognised in the current financial year, reflecting the software licence element of the contract, and the initial implementation will be delivered over the next 12-18 months. As with other new customer wins, Cerillion sees the potential for additional revenues to be generated as the relationship expands over time.
SE Group provides telecoms and TV services through its two brands, Stofa and Boxer. The Group holds a strong position within Denmark as the nation's second largest provider of broadband and television.
The Enterprise BSS/OSS suite covers the provision of back office and operational support systems, including CRM, billing, order management, workflow, network provisioning and self-care functionality. The win was secured following an extensive, competitive selection process.
Niels Duedahl, CEO of SE Group, said:
"Following a thorough assessment of the global market, we have selected Cerillion as our future platform for our telecom services. Cerillion has demonstrated a strong track record of implementations and has an impressive portfolio of customers."
Louis Hall, CEO of Cerillion, said:
"We are delighted to have secured this new contract with a large European energy provider. Our Enterprise suite provides a comprehensive, pre-integrated, end-to-end solution. This is a significant win for the Company reflective of the larger contracts we are now securing, and will benefit revenues and earnings in the current financial year and beyond."
