Enterprise Billing Platform

Overview Bluecurrent (Australia) Pty Limited is issuing this Request for Information to better understand the capability, maturity, delivery approach and strategic thinking of potential billing platform providers. Purpose The purpose of this RFI is not to seek a final priced proposal or to lock Bluecurrent into a predetermined solution design. Rather, this RFI is intended to gather structured market insight, test the viability of potential solution options, and inform the development of a future business case, solution strategy and possible Request for Proposal process. This aligns with RFI best practice, where an RFI is used to understand vendor capability, clarify potential scope, improve the quality of later procurement activity, and obtain comparable market information before progressing to a more formal selection process. This RFI is issued for the purposes of gathering information only. It is intended to assist Bluecurrent in understanding available solutions, architectures and approaches offered in the market. This RFI does not constitute a commitment to proceed with procurement or vendor selection, a request for proposal or invitation to tender. Information Requested Bluecurrent is seeking responses from vendors that demonstrate more than generic billing platform capability. Respondents are expected to show that they have carefully considered Bluecurrent's current operating environment, billing complexity, market obligations, source system landscape, data dependencies, operational controls and strategic objectives. Bluecurrent is particularly interested in how respondents believe the current billing capability could be simplified, modernised, automated and better governed while still achieving the operational, financial, customer, regulatory and strategic outcomes required by the business.
