One of these services includes MTN\u2019s modernized Network Operating Centre (NOC) which has been implemented to manage end-to-end monitoring of the MTN network. Through the NOC, MTN Rwanda\u2019s Network Operations Center and the Incidents Management tools are automated, improving network operations efficiency and boosting customer experience.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEricsson has been a close and prominent partner over the last two decades in Rwanda. Their services have enabled us to pivot from product to platform, aligning seamlessly with our overarching strategy to provide the largest and most valuable platforms by delivering on 100% network coverage, and bridging the digital and financial gaps currently present,\u201d Ng\u2019ambi said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe look forward to achieving these ambitious targets for the betterment of our customers and stakeholders because we believe that everyone deserves the benefits of modern connected life,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to telecommunication services, Ericsson has enabled Mobile Money Rwanda Ltd with a platform for digital financial services such as Basic services (P2P, Cashin, Cashout &amp; Airtime Purchase) and Advanced payments (MoMoPay, OpenAPI), Loans &amp; Savings, Bill Payments and Remittances.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are proud of the relationship we\u2019ve built with MTN Rwanda and the opportunities we\u2019ve had to be part of the nation\u2019s social and economic progress. We\u2019ve collaborated on a number of initiatives that ranged from network modernization to enhancing consumer experience,\u201d Ekudden said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe remain ever committed to continue working together on exploring solutions that increase social and financial inclusion here in Rwanda.
