Nexign (a part of ICS Holding LLC), a leading Business Support System (BSS) and Internet of Things (IoT) solutions provider, and MegaFon, the pan-Russian operator of digital opportunities, have completed the project of unifying billing systems for all 8 MegaFon’s subsidiaries on a single BSS platform. The companies also migrated subscriber data to the new environment with no impact on customers.
The need to go beyond classical telecom services pushed MegaFon to transform the billing core and develop a unified billing system in order to facilitate digital transformation. Among the strategic goals of the project were the reduction of total cost of ownership (TCO) by 20–30% and acceleration of new product launches.
In the course of the project, 7 billing systems utilized in MegaFon were replaced with a single solution. The process was seamless for customers, and the specifics and working arrangements of individual organizations was taken into account during the migration of the B2X segment.
MegaFon achieved the following results:
- Unification of processes for all branch offices;
- Transition from a regional-based to a single shared operation service, which resulted in the increase of its efficiency;
- The product portfolio aligned within all branches of the operator while maintaining the flexibility of local pricing policy;
- Introduction of joint call centers with the same service KPIs and standardized routes for handling calls;
- Improved quality of customer service in the operator’s coverage area;
- Time to market (TTM) for various product categoriesreduced by 2-5 times.
“The collaboration with Nexign has proven to be efficient and successful. We pursued a number of goals traditional for large companies. Aside from optimizing TCO and shortening the time to market for new services, we aimed to improve the customer experience and, as a result, facilitate digital and business transformation. We managed to move all 8 subsidiaries to unified billing processes and switch to a single operation service, which minimized support costs and enabled us to develop an ecosystem for the seamless integration of external partners,” says Sergey Nikiforets, Director of Digital Services at MegaFon PJSC .
Besides the actual implementation of the unified billing system, a number of related projects were completed:
- The integration of the FastTrack methodology designed to automate the update implementation process. Consequently, the team responsible for it decided to spend no more than two weeks on minor changes to the system core — a process that used to last for about a year.
- Development of a microservice factory . Its goal was to accelerate the formation of a partner ecosystem. By using this tool, MegaFon has already launched more than 100 new business projects.
- The introduction of a product catalog that acts as a single point of development and modification of MegaFon’s products and services.
“The joint project with MegaFon is unique for the telecommunications market — both in terms of organized interaction and in terms of results achieved. The Nexign team carried out a comprehensive transformation of the operator’s systems, which enabled MegaFon to not only improve business efficiency and enter a new phase of development, but also to ensure customer loyalty while maintaining a high level of service in all regions. Whereas MegaFon will be able to upgrade the unified billing system to address short-term and long-term business challenges, Nexign’s scalable expertise will benefit telcos looking to develop digital services,” says Igor Gorkov, CEO of Nexign.

This head-to-head test compared Archer’s purpose-built, vertical-specific AI and proprietary data sets against a leading general-purpose LLM, on a core compliance task: determining the publication, effective and comment-close dates of regulatory documents across six jurisdictions.

90% of IT Leaders See Gaps in AI Threat Readiness, Lenovo Brings Single Point of Accountability to Cyber Resiliency30.6.2026 15:00:00 CEST | Press release
New end-to-end resilience and managed security offerings help organizations reduce security complexity, cut system downtime by up to 50%, and lower remediation costs by up to 40% by bringing devices, security technologies, expert services, and ecosystem partners together under a single operational model As organizations accelerate AI adoption and digital workplace transformation, many are finding that cyber resilience is undermined not by a lack of security tools, but by growing operational complexity and threat sophistication. According to recent research, 90% of IT leaders acknowledge gaps in their ability to defend against AI-driven threats. While security investments continue to grow, many organizations face a different challenge: fragmented accountability.
