World Leaders in Mobile Number Portability Consultancy
Helping regulators and operators to assess and implement mobile number portability solutions
We have helped regulators and operators in over 40 countries across five continents assess and implement mobile number portability.
We advise on number portability every day of every year; number portability is our lifeblood
Cenerva is the world’s leading number portability consultancy. We help ministries, regulators, operators (both incumbents and new entrants) assess, implement and optimise their number portability resources and services.
We have helped regulators and operators in over 40 countries across five continents assess and implement mobile number portability.
This includes virtually every implementation in the world over the past 12 years.
Most regulators and operators only implement number portability once. We have worked on far more number portability projects than any other consultancy. This includes countries large and small, in developed and developing markets, across five continents.
Cenerva helps regulators assess the feasibility of introducing number portability and its likely impact, and helps to design processes suited to local market conditions.
We work to ensure operators are ready to implement these processes and provide direct support to ensure the development of an efficient, secure and consumer-friendly porting services.
Every mobile number portability implementation is unique, driven by external and local factors which determine the right process and delivery timeframe. We will ensure these are taken into account when making recommendations, while benchmarking against global number portability best practice.
We support, advise, and directly participate in national number portability programmes and, most importantly, we transfer our expertise and experience to our clients and stakeholders.
Cenerva offers proactive hands-on engagement, not just reactive or remote advice.
The breadth of our number portability experience means we understand the commercial, operational, regulatory, legal and technical drivers and activities which underpin successful mobile number portability delivery in a way which minimises business and operational risks, while maximising consumer benefit.
