QKS Group Names CSG a Leader in 2026 Telecom CPQ Market

The QKS Group assessment ranks vendors based on technology excellence and customer impact, offering a strategic view of how platforms handle the shift toward partner-led and enterprise-focused service models. CSG’s Quote & Order platform earned its top-tier status by integrating configuration, pricing, quoting, and order orchestration into a unified framework. This approach allows communications service providers to maintain pricing consistency while managing multi-site customer engagements.

Abhishek Dubey, Principal Analyst at QKS Group, noted that CSG distinguishes itself through an agreement-centric model and AI-enabled pricing. By connecting commercial decisions directly to billing and fulfilment, the platform helps operators reduce complexity across the customer lifecycle. Furthermore, the company’s API-first architecture allows providers to modernize their commercial operations without discarding existing investments in OSS, BSS, or CRM environments.

As telecommunications firms move beyond simple connectivity, the demand for agile, modular commercial tools has surged. Greg Tilton, VP of Quote & Order at CSG, emphasized that the recognition validates the company’s focus on turning complex business opportunities into accurate, executable orders. This shift reflects a broader industry trend where CPQ platforms serve as the central nervous system for commercial operations, enabling providers to scale their enterprise offerings with greater visibility and control.
