Semantic search provider and South Africa's first converged telecommunications network operator win award for Enterprise Service Management project.
London, UK - June 14, 2012: Ontology Systems, the semantic-search technology provider for Enterprise Data Alignment, today announced, along with customer, Neotel, Ontology has won the 2012 GTB Innovation Awards for ’Data Services Innovation’.
The Ontology-Neotel award entry detailed a recent project where Ontology Intelligent 360 delivered a joined-up view of Neotel’s enterprise services, drawing together a configuration spread across multiple underlying OSS/BSS systems. Presenting all of an enterprise customer's information in a single place meant Neotel improved their customer experience, plus the linking of OSS/BSS systems revealed costly billing and provisioning errors and let Neotel free up stranded assets.
On winning the award, which was presented to both Phinda Ncala, Neotel’s CIO, and Leo Zancani, Ontology’s CTO, Zancani remarked: “Ontology’s semantic-search approach to align OSS/BSS data is unique in the Telco industry and we are delighted that the Neotel innovation for the Enterprise Service Management project has been fully recognised by the judging panel of Global Telecoms Business.”
The GTB Innovation Awards, designed to honour projects involving telecoms operators and service providers around the world, in association with their vendors and suppliers, took place on Tuesday night at the Sheraton Park Lane hotel in London.

About Ontology Systems
Ontology Systems have caused Communications Service Providers (CSPs) to rethink the way they find and align customer, equipment and service information. CSPs spend vast sums of money attempting to do this via integration but getting usable results is hard. The world’s largest misaligned system is the Internet and you search the Internet. Ontology believes you should search your systems too.
Using state-of-the-art semantic search technologies, Ontology quickly finds and aligns business entities in operational, business and infrastructure systems. We provide a single, accurate, enterprise-wide view of customers, services and network assets.
We call it Enterprise Data Alignment (EDA). CSPs who achieve EDA significantly increase profit and reduce costs by preventing revenue leaks, improving service management, enhancing customer experience, maximising network assets and improving the speed and accuracy of migration.
Ontology is semantic search for Enterprise Data Alignment.
