Success requires more than just speed—it demands depth of understanding and vision for the future. And “digging deep and aiming high” isn’t just a catchy phrase, it’s the story of how we’re helping reshape the telecom world, both underground and in orbit.
We’re hands-on with the two most exciting (and demanding) areas of telecom today:
Both are transforming how people connect, and both come with complex back-office challenges that can slow things down. That’s where we come in.
Alvatross is built for action. We deliver practical, standards-based OSS solutions that help operators keep up with the pace of innovation. From next-gen APIs to smart orchestration, we’re helping the industry:
Here’s how we’re doing that in two major TM Forum Catalyst projects we’re part of—each one tackling a big piece of the digital transformation in the telecom industry.
If you’ve been following telecom trends, you know that low orbit satellites and 5G are the industry’s latest power couple. It’s an exciting match—one brings global reach, the other brings lightning-fast connectivity.
But while everyone’s been busy connecting antennas and launching spacecraft, one critical piece has been left behind: the OSS and BSS systems that keep the business side running.
That’s where our Catalyst comes in.
We’re helping bring satellite and mobile operators together into a shared digital ecosystem. Think of it like creating a universal translator for services and data. Using TM Forum’s Connectivity-as-a-Service (CaaS) model, we’re building a smart platform that makes it easier to bundle, sell, and activate hybrid services—whether they come from a tower, a satellite, or both.
In short, this Catalyst is about making sure that the digital transformation in the telecom industry doesn’t stop at the stratosphere.
Let’s switch gears and head back underground—where fiber networks are quietly doing the heavy lifting of our digital lives.
As demand explodes, so does complexity. CSPs and wholesalers are having to work with more partners, more vendors, and more systems than ever before. And guess what? Everyone speaks a slightly different language.
This Catalyst is all about getting them on the same page.
We’re helping develop a common set of APIs, data models, and processes—all built on TM Forum standards—so that onboarding new partners is less like solving a difficult puzzle and more like plugging in a USB to your laptop.
We’re not going for one-size-fits-all. Instead, we’re aiming for 80–90% standardization, leaving just enough room for CSPs and vendors to still do things their own way when they need to.
In other words, we are all about promoting a practical digital transformation in the telecom industry, making fiber collaboration smoother, smarter, and future-proof.
These Catalyst projects are more than experiments. They reflect how Alvatross works in real life: tackling telecom’s messiest challenges with smart, scalable, and standards-based solutions.
Our approach is simple but powerful. We call it the Three R’s:
Still stuck with legacy systems, vendor lock-in, or high churn? Let’s step back, zoom out, and rethink the way forward—with clarity and purpose.
Want to move faster, be more agile, and make your team’s efforts count again? We bring flexibility, automation, and standards-based design to breathe new life into your back office.
Looking to cut OPEX, wow your customers, and unlock new revenue streams? Our modular, cloud-native platform is built to deliver real outcomes—not just slideware.

And all of it is powered by our open, cloud-native OSS platform—already deployed in live environments and now officially recognized at the Platinum Level for Open API Conformance with 20 certified Open APIs.
If you’re serious about making your digital transformation in the telecom industry real—not just on slides, but in systems—then let’s talk.
We’ll be at DTW Ignite 2025, showcasing both Catalysts and sharing how we’re bringing the future to life.
Our CTO, Antonio González Kirchenmayer, will be speaking at two key sessions on June 19 (learn more HERE) —sharing real lessons from real deployments with customers like EWE Tel and 1&1.
