CSG announced it expanded its relationship with Telstra, providing billing and provisioning capabilities for Telstra’s managed IoT connected solutions across Asia-Pacific.
Telstra has leveraged its technology innovation and domain expertise in IoT connectivity for connected cars to develop an ecosystem for its customers in the car industry to navigate the future proliferation of autonomous vehicles.

CSG will provide both the provisioning and billing capabilities for its connected car solution suite. This will support the delivery of IoT-based connectivity to initially provide telemetry management that delivers information about the vehicle based on data collected from the vehicle’s sensors.

Telstra’s IoT connectivity management platform will provide the framework for the connected car, while CSG will integrate its Singleview and Mediation solutions into the platform to onboard, rate and provide billing to Telstra’s customers based on the services utilized. CSG will manage complex business reporting for Telstra’s partner ecosystem.

“Telstra has leveraged its investment and IoT footprint in its mobile network, the largest in Australia, to deliver an industry-leading suite of connected vehicle capabilities that helps position its customers for the driverless future,” said Ian Watterson, head of CSG’s Asia-Pacific business operations.
