This 18-month engagement is for replacing TFL`s technology systems to make it more agile in order to take on competition in Fiji's recently deregulated telecom market, Mr Taito Tabaleka, Group Acting Chief Executive Officer, said in an exclusive interaction with Business Line, here on Tuesday.
"Tech Mahindra will replace Telecom Fiji's IT systems, billing systems and also look at the prospects of outsourcing its billing requirements to other telecom carriers," said Mr Tabaleka.
Till last year, the company had the exclusive licence to provide domestic voice and data services, while Vodafone Fiji - a joint venture between Vodafone and Telecom Fiji's holding company - has been the sole provider of mobile services. Fiji's telecommunications sector was deregulated on November 8, 2007.
It is learnt that the Venezuela-based Digitel GSM is also keen to enter Fiji.
