Creating an efficient MSP billing process with Fujitsu

Data-driven billing creates customer satisfaction – read how Fujitsu unlocked new value with Good Sign!

 

Effective, timely, and flexible service billing 

As a large IT service provider, Fujitsu sought automation to enhance billing efficiency and quality. Manual processes were replaced by end-to-end automation, covering the reading of usage data from source devices and operations, and automatically matching it to customer agreements. With Good Sign's solution, Fujitsu now provides customers with accurate, transparent billing and self-service tools.

With global managed services revenue forecasted to grow by at least 12% in 2024, driven by increasing demand for cybersecurity management, cloud infrastructure, application development, AI solution consulting, and compliance requirements, it’s crucial for service providers to adopt solutions capable of meeting these needs efficiently and accurately. This is precisely the challenge Fujitsu and Good Sign have tackled together.

Intelligent, automated billing system wanted!

The Challenge: Fujitsu Finland's invoicing used to be weeks behind the actual service delivery. Basic manual billing data collection and billing were eating up too many resources. With up to 20 persons managing the billing and trying to tackle the complicated client contracts and detailed billing requirements, top management at Fujitsu realized that the entire process had to be more efficient and effective. They needed a next-generation mediation and billing system.
