Atos Origin delivers a complete range of managed telecom IT service solutions for 3G, mobile and fixed markets including convergent IP services and next generation (NG) messaging. Our portfolio includes support for SMS, MMS, VoIP, mobile payment systems, peer-to-peer systems, roaming service centre solutions, conferencing and gaming.
Convergent IP services
As the next generation in telecoms architectures the implementation of IP multimedia subsystems (IMS) is opening up new markets for operators to provide voice, data, multimedia and other convergent IP services to customers as they roam between fixed IP and mobile connections.
With an IMS integrated at the application level, operators can significantly extend the delivery of new products and services over their network. These could typically include VoIP, fixed / mobile convergence services, peer-to-peer mobile technologies, IPTV, mobile TV and video on demand (VOD).
Convergent IP services are opening up new opportunities for operators to cost-effectively extend their service range and capture market share, particularly from the instant gratification generation of mobile consumers that are increasingly using IP-enabled devices to purchase products, content and services wherever and whenever they choose.
Operators can consolidate existing premium services that are tied to specific networks into services that can roam across networks. Fixed operators, for example, could thus fend off mobile competitors by replacing expensive legacy networks with VoIP running via IMS to offer roaming voice and other services to their customers at a competitive price.
Our approach
Atos Origin’s approach to implementing IMS-based next generation networks is business-case and service roadmap led, focusing on revenue generation and revenue protection. By integrating the IMS solution with existing business support solutions we aim to accelerate the advance from legacy platforms while expanding market potential. Our key partner(s) in the convergent IP services arena include Lucent Technologies, Philips, Psytechnics, LignUp and Nagravision.

Next generation (NG) messaging
With the proliferation of multi-channel communications, the challenge for operators is to develop seamless messaging environments that make it easy for consumers to stay in touch anytime and anywhere. The need to give consumers the flexibility to personalise their communications, to specify exactly when they’d like to receive messages, in what format and on which device is driving the market. At the same time, it is vital that messaging services are secure, comply with data protection legislation and respect personal privacy.
We help operators to take advantage of the emerging opportunities by enabling their networks to merge the complete spectrum of message formats – email, web-mail, video-mail, voice-mail, SMS, MMS and so forth – onto a single platform. We provide a powerful range of features and functionality so that telecom service providers can deliver messages to consumers, businesses and ISPs over fixed, mobile and next generation IP networks.
