Cult Hill Innovations Limited (CHIL) provides business software solutions for network operators, communication service providers and dealers.
The Sigma Ukraine challenge was to establish a remote software factory capable of delivering a ready to market innovative software product and then supporting bespoke client projects and maintaining product installations. Developed by Sigma Ukraine, the OSS software product has the ability to work in a distributed environment. The software product is aimed at giving business developers a comprehensive and easy to use tool to build and verify new business models and automatically generate the Operations Support Systems (OSS).

Main features of the product allow the customer to:

• Transform the way service providers create and implement new business capabilities;
• Give non-technical business users a visual tool to assemble new applications and verify their business models;
• Model and launch new services in a fraction of the time;
• Automatically generate operations support functions;
• Provide a single framework for invoicing multiple services;
• Take a strategic approach to existing and new processes.

Currently the software factory is put in widespread use and continues to support further software evolutions, participates in bespoke development and technical support of implemented product installations. Being staffed and locally managed by Sigma Ukraine for 5 years now, the software factory has become an integral part of the UK software house's operations, providing an economic virtual extension of its IT organization. An application is used by major European telecom companies.
