With a 10% compound annual growth rate, the revenue assurance market is expected to grow from its estimated $506 million in 2021 to $1.3 billion by 2031.
Revenue assurance is the process by which an operator ensures that revenues for services provided to customers and third parties are accurately billed, accounted for, and collected. It is a catch-all term for the activities that a company undertakes to ensure that its procedures and processes reduce revenue leakage. Leakages occur when revenue earned by the company and services rendered to the customer are lost on their way to billing systems and the customer is never debited. As a result, one of the major factors expected to drive the market during the forecast period is the increasing incidence of revenue leakages.
Changes in internal customer priorities, a mismatch between solution expectations and deliverables as a result of implementation issues or poor communication, and unknown or unforeseen invoicing and billing errors are just a few of the factors that contribute to revenue leakage. Revenue assurance promises to assist telecom providers in obtaining revenue for services they provide but are unable to charge for due to ineffective back-office practices such as record keeping, regulatory compliance, and accounting.
The global Revenue Assurance market size was estimated to reach over USD 575 Million in 2020, and projected to grow significantly with a CAGR of 8.5% over the forecast period. Revenue assurance is a more compelling option for carriers to improve profits than acquiring new customers or expanding into new markets due to its relatively low costs and quick payback. With cost and revenue leakages arising throughout the operator's business, it is critical to focus on identifying the source of revenue leakages, quantifying their magnitude, and addressing them holistically.
With the adoption of new access control and service delivery technologies, as well as the constant evolution of offerings, service providers are constantly confronted with revenue leakage issues, despite the increased awareness of the importance of revenue assurance. One of the potential causes of revenue loss that impedes an organization's ability to deploy effective risk-reduction strategies is a lack of transparency.
