Union Street wins prestigious award for aBILLity WLR3 module

WLR3 (wholesale line rental 3) has been introduced by BT Openreach to provide a level playing field for CPs with BT Retail, through a policy of equivalence of access. To utilise WLR 3, communication providers must interface with the BT Openreach Equivalence Management Platform (EMP). This means that CPs will need to either develop their own gateway or partner with a systems integrator such as Union Street, who can provide a solution.

While the new WLR3 module is suitable for CPs with other billing platforms, when used in conjunction with the aBILLity billing platform, it gives significant business integration benefits in terms of reduced data entry, faster order processing, extra validation and reduced errors.

Comms Business is a leading publication for the telecoms industry channel and its annual awards are judged by an independent panel of industry experts. The awards are widely recognised as the premier accolades in the telecoms sector.

Commenting on the launch of Comms Business award, Tony Cook, a director of Union Street said, “We are delighted to have received this prestigious award for the aBILLity WLR3 module. The comms industry is moving rapidly to WLR3 deployment and we developed the WLR3 module to ensure that our customers could adopt WLR3 and have full integration with their aBILLity billing platform. A single data entry point for all WLR3 provisioning and billing provides greater accuracy and increased productivity for our customers.”
