SaskTel International (SI) led a major back-end convergence project when a large US-based service provider acquired another over twice its size. The newly formed provider had a combined operating presence in 33 states with approximately eight million access lines and two million broadband customers. SI transferred data and information from a handful of legacy OSS systems onto one single inventory system provided by SI. At one point in the project, over 2 million access lines were converted over a single weekend.
Throughout the project, a team of over 30 resources from SI committed to making the conversion a success. These individuals ranged from quality assurance testers and project managers all the way to infrastructure and development resources.
