STOCKHOLM -- Time is money, especially when it comes to quickly responding to changing market conditions and opportunities. Ericsson's (NASDAQ: ERIC) Mobile Order Management solution - part of its OSS and BSS offering - gives mobile operators the tools for slashing the time and cost of launching and provisioning services on any type of mobile device. This is thanks to the addition of Order Care, which is based on software from Ericsson's recent ConceptWave acquisition.
Mobile Order Management enables operators to reduce the time for launching a service from six months to less than one week. That can translate into as much as two quarters of additional revenue and the ability to act faster than competitors with less nimble platforms.
With Mobile Order Management, operators can provide their enterprise customers with self-service portals and tools for ordering and delivering employee smartphones and tablets, as well as the applications and services that run on them. For example, companies can quickly push out new sales tools to agents' mobile devices. In addition to streamlining enterprise IT tasks, the solution enables employees to personalize their service bundle.
Elisabetta Romano, Head of OSS in Business Unit Support Solutions, Ericsson says: "Our Mobile Order Management solution gives mobile operators the ability to streamline their Lead to Service process while providing their customers with new opportunities to enjoy the latest services and applications the market has to offer."

Understanding the full experience of women in technology requires starting at the collegiate level (or sooner) and studying the technologies women are involved with, company cultures they're part of and personal experiences of individuals.
During this WiC radio show, we will talk with Nicole Engelbert, the director of Research & Analysis for Ovum Technology and a 23-year telecom industry veteran, about her experiences and perspectives on women in tech. Engelbert covers infrastructure, applications and industries for Ovum, but she is also involved in the research firm's higher education team and has helped colleges and universities globally leverage technology as a strategy for improving recruitment, retention and graduation performance.
She will share her unique insight into the collegiate level, where women pursuing engineering and STEM-related degrees is dwindling. Engelbert will also reveal new, original Ovum research on the topics of artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, security and augmented reality, as well as discuss what each of those technologies might mean for women in our field. As always, we'll also leave plenty of time to answer all your questions live on the air and chat board.
