Mobile Network Operator Technology
Mobile network operators require sophisticated Operations Support Systems (OSS) and Business Support Systems (BSS) for network orchestration, real-time charging, customer management, and analytics. As operators migrate to 5G, the need for cloud-native, real-time capable systems becomes critical. OSS handles network-facing operations — fault management, performance monitoring, provisioning, and inventory. BSS handles customer-facing operations — CRM, billing, charging, order management, and product catalog. Arunika Consulting helps telecom operators design, implement, and transform their OSS/BSS architecture for the 5G era.
Compliance Warning
This industry is considered high risk and may receive closer attention from tax authorities. Professional tax consultation is strongly recommended.
Technology Challenges
Legacy OSS/BSS Transformation
Migrating from legacy BSS/OSS systems to cloud-native, 5G-ready stacks is a multi-year, multi-trillion rupiah transformation requiring careful phasing and parallel running.
Real-Time Charging for 5G Services
5G introduces network slicing, IoT services, and ultra-low-latency applications that require real-time charging with sub-millisecond latency — beyond what legacy batch systems can handle.
Multi-Vendor Network Orchestration
Thousands of network elements from multiple vendors must be orchestrated automatically. Closed-loop automation for self-healing networks requires robust OSS integration.
Convergent Billing Complexity
Operators offer mobile, fixed broadband, IPTV, and digital services under single billing. Convergent billing requires a unified product catalog and charging system.
Customer Experience Management
With high competition, operators need real-time customer experience monitoring, proactive issue detection, and personalized offers — all requiring integrated analytics.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between OSS and BSS in telecom?
BSS (Business Support Systems) are customer-facing — CRM, billing, charging, order management, and product catalog. OSS (Operations Support Systems) are network-facing — fault management, performance management, provisioning, and inventory. BSS answers 'who is the customer, what did they buy, how much do they pay'. OSS answers 'is the network working, how is service provisioned, what capacity is available'. BSS-OSS integration follows TM Forum Open API standards.
What is the typical cost of OSS/BSS transformation?
OSS/BSS transformation is a major investment. Small operators (under 1 million subscribers): IDR 100-500 billion. Medium operators (1-10 million subscribers): IDR 500 billion to 2 trillion. Large operators (10+ million subscribers): IDR 2-10 trillion. Transformation typically spans 3-5 years with phased migration to avoid service disruption.
What does 5G mean for charging systems?
5G introduces new capabilities that impact charging: (1) Network slicing — charging per slice with different QoS; (2) Ultra-low latency services — sub-millisecond charging transactions; (3) IoT at scale — millions of devices with micro-transactions; (4) Edge computing — charging at the network edge. This requires a 5G service-based architecture (SBA) with a converged charging system (CCS) that supports both online and offline charging.
Will system migration disrupt daily operations?
We usually use a parallel-run approach so the old and new systems operate together during transition, reducing downtime and data risk.
Can accounting software connect to POS and bank data automatically?
Yes. We design API and import workflows for POS, marketplaces, and bank statements to reduce manual entry and reconciliation errors.
Which software is best for my industry?
The right choice depends on transaction volume and complexity. We assess your workflow before recommending cloud accounting, POS, ERP, or dashboard tools.
