As a digital-led product, the pre-paid digital stack solution is aimed at boosting customer control and convenience. The co-developed initiative was designed, implemented, tested and launched by a joint Telstra and Ericsson project team in industry-record time. The accelerated delivery is made possible through continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD), with TMF aligned Open APIs used extensively to enable integration and shorter time-to-market. Shailin Sehgal, Telstra Product Enablement Technology Executive, says: "Our T22 vision is to fundamentally change the nature of telecommunication products and services in Australia by eliminating pain points for our customers and this implementation is another step we are taking to help us achieve this. Our pre-paid customers now experience an activation speed of less than a couple of minutes for new prepaid activations, which had previously taken around 10 minutes with the legacy solution.
