MIGRATING MILLIONS OF SIM CARDS

INTERNATIONAL TELCO

BRIEF

It was forcasted that in 2020 around 30 million “things“ worldwide will be connected to the internet. This means that digitalization isn’t just a buzzword: in all spheres of personal and professional life, it has become a reality.

One of the world’s leading telecommunications providers asked Mediaan Conclusion to plan and execute the migration of millions of SIM cards from an existing system to the new, state-of-the-art platform. Due to our experience in this field, the migration was executed flawlessly without sacrificing uptime.
