Configure to Fit, Integration Services, Systems Architecture

The Client

The leading telecommunications provider in the Netherlands, KPN Telecom, delivers local and long-distance telephone, Internet access, data, and multimedia services over its extensive fiber optic network.

The Challenge

KPN Telecom was looking to improve its growing suite of IP data services and to establish itself as an IP-VPN wholesale service of choice in the xSPs and small- to large-scale business enterprise market in the Netherlands.

The Solution

KPN Telecom decided to launch an automated and integrated business support system/operations support systems (BSS/OSS) IP-VPN using BearingPoint’s Configure to Fit (CTF) architecture. Working with KPN Telecom, BearingPoint built a BSS/OSS around the enterprise application integration (EAI) architecture provided by our alliance partner, TIBCO Software.

The Benefits

Based on the Configure to Fit (CTF) architecture, KPN Telecom was able to offer its wholesale customers a secure IP-VPN solution in 2001. In 2002, KPN Telecom will expand its IP-VPN product of services by offering multiple-site VPN connections with broadband, leased line, Ethernet, and dail-in access to its medium and large business enterprise customers based on the same proven platform.
