    CSG's Professional Services team managed the conversion from legacy
billing systems to CSG Kenan/BP, built a direct connection between the billing
system and SKY Mexico's Siebel eCommunications customer relationship
management system and added a direct link between billing and provisioning
systems.  The result is a seamless ordering, billing and service provisioning
process.

proportion of Mexico's pay television market, with the CSG Kenan solution and
