CSPs operate in a highly commoditized market and need to drive product and service differentiation at every step of their customer journey.
The explosive growth of digital service providers, OTT providers, and hyperscalers further eats into the CSP revenue. To improve their topline and keep them relevant in the highly competitive market, CSPs need to partner with adjacent markets like banking, insurance, and healthcare to provide differentiated service offerings. However, the current eCommerce platforms are not suited for such partnerships, and there are complications in revenue share, settlements, loyalty management, and customer experience. Virtusa’s Digital Marketplace solution addresses these through an innovative combination of technology, including blockchain for settlement and loyalty management.
The Digital Marketplace facilitates growth by allowing seamless integration with partners and suppliers, enabling a connected experience for consumers and enterprises. The platform will enable growth by leveraging various commercial revenue models. It can help address the most common challenges:
- Need to move away from a linear based selling relationship with the subscriber to a platform-based business model
- Limitations associated with developing technical and operational capabilities to offer innovative product offerings and business models
- Lack of consistency when serving customers across all sales channels
