Challenge
The client required cloud connectivity to ensure uninterrupted charging, allowing drivers to charge at the most convenient and cost-effective times. They needed greater control over SIMs and eSIMs to manage activations, provisioning, suspensions, profile changes, and monitoring of activity and usage. Additionally, they sought multi-network coverage for robust connectivity across various local mobile network operators.
Solution
BICS provided access to deep technical expertise to enhance functionality and ensure optimal performance, leveraging live data for charging during low-demand energy periods. eSIM technology offered flexible connectivity deployment, reducing dependency on single providers and mitigating risks associated with outages, price fluctuations, or coverage changes. An easy-to-use self-service portal integrated with the client’s existing platform through APIs enabled seamless SIM management in real-time.
