History and Progress

GSC Group history and progress... so far

The GSC Group was formed in January 2003 by a collective of the leading and like minded Carriers whose priority is to support Electronic Data Interchange implementation in all continents and facilitate standardising of billing and settlement processes.

The outstanding success of the inaugural meeting of the GSC Group in Singapore (March 2003) revealed an untapped demand among Telecommunications Carriers for a global forum dedicated to discussing issues and agreeing on new standards for international billing and settlements. Further success at our second meeting in Vancouver (October 2003) encouraged more Carriers joining as GSC members.

Our third and fourth meetings, respectively in Paris (April 2004) and Hong Kong (March 2005), were well received and confirmed by the wide audience and the continued Carriers interest which allowed GSC Group to progress with the establisment of guidelines in several areas including Complex Deals, Dispute Resolution, Credit Management, Full Invoicing, Net Settlement etc.

Through these progresses, the group’s membership has been kept on growing. More developments and updates are available under the GSC News & Events
