It’s getting to be that time where everyone is creating their best of / worst of lists for 2009. All this year end hype is just great fodder for what usually is a slow news time. What’s surprising about the Internet Telephony’s awards is who has shown up.

Representin’ the GWN

In today’s announcement of the 2009 Internet Telephony BSS/OSS Excellence Awards it was refreshing to see that at least two of the companies were  home teams.
The winners were;

• Volubill, CHARGE-IT, Montbonnot Saint Martin, France
• SAP, SAP Telecommunications, Walldorf, Germany
• Intec Telecom Systems, Inter-mediatE v6, Woking, Surrey, United Kingdom
• Sigma Systems, Service Management Portfolio, Toronto, ON, Canada
• Redknee, One Call Resolution, Mississauga, ON, Canada
• Comverse, ONE Billing & Active Customer Management, Woodbury, New York

Sigma Systems has toiled in the OSS space for years and has reinvented itself a number of times. Sigma has defined itself originally within the cable industry and has expanded well beyond that. Redknee, founded in 1999 has developed a focused portfolio of solution for the billing and customer care field and made a mark for itself worldwide. Good on you both!
