      • Stakeholder Meetings : Conduct meetings with key stakeholders to understand their messaging needs, including OTPs, notifications, and business messages.
      • Current Messaging Infrastructure Review : Assess the existing messaging systems and identify pain points and areas for improvement.

       

      1. Project Scope Definition
      • Scope and Objectives : Define the project scope, objectives, timelines, and responsibilities.
      • Cost Savings Analysis : Estimate potential cost savings from deploying the SMS Eagle solution compared to existing SMS gateway services.

       

      Phase 2: Infrastructure Preparation
      1. Hardware Procurement
      • SMS Eagle Modem : Procure the SMS Eagle modem with the required number of SIM card slots to handle the expected message volume.
      • SIM Cards : Obtain SIM cards with suitable plans for bulk messaging.

       

      1. Network Configuration
      • Network Readiness : Ensure network readiness, including IP address allocation, firewall settings, and VPN configurations if required.
      • Physical Installation : Set up the SMS Eagle modem in a secure and accessible location within the on-premises infrastructure.

       

      Phase 3: SMS Eagle Installation and Configuration
      1. Modem Setup
      • SIM Card Installation : Insert the SIM cards into the SMS Eagle modem.
      • Network Connection : Connect the modem to the local network and assign a static IP address.

       

      1. Software Configuration
      • SMS Eagle Web Interface : Access the SMS Eagle web interface for initial setup and configuration.
      • User Accounts : Create user accounts and configure access permissions based on roles.

       

      1. Integration with Existing Systems
      • API Integration : Integrate the SMS Eagle solution with existing applications and systems using the SMS Eagle API for sending and receiving messages.
      • SMTP Server Configuration : If required, configure the SMS Eagle as an SMTP server to allow email-to-SMS functionality.

       

      Phase 4: Security and Compliance
      1. Security Configuration
      • Access Control : Implement access control measures to secure the SMS Eagle modem and its web interface.
      • Data Encryption : Ensure that all communication with the SMS Eagle modem is encrypted.

       

      1. Compliance Measures
      • Regulatory Compliance : Ensure the solution complies with relevant regulations and standards for messaging and data protection.

       

      Phase 5: Testing and Validation
      1. Functionality Testing
      • Message Sending : Test the functionality of sending OTPs and business messages through the SMS Eagle modem.
      • Message Receiving : Verify the ability to receive messages and handle responses.

       

      1. Performance Testing
