Networks are becoming extremely complex. Operators have to mix and manage more and more technologies, including Fiber To The X (FTTx), IP, and Passive Optical Networks, in order to support the rush of new services, such as Triple Play, Voice over IP (VoIP), IP-TV, and Metro Ethernet. As a result, the need for a planning and engineering system that can support any network, any technology, and any type of equipment right down to the individual glass fiber is critical. It is the key to knowing where customers are located, linking them to the network, and efficiently managing the quality of converged services.

As a central data repository with the ability to track current, historical, and planned inventory and layouts, GISDATA OSS solutions facilitates data flow between Operations Support Systems (OSSs) and across functional areas. The result: Up-to-date data views are accessible not only to engineers, but also to strategic planning, sales and marketing organizations, field crews, call-before-you-dig centers, Web users, and management. Better collaboration and real-time data sharing can lead to major improvements in flow through provisioning, service assurance, procurement, and workforce management.

Granite Inventory

Telcordia Network Engineer provides a sophisticated geo-database, which houses all network and physical inventory information. This database serves as a central repository for seamless, real-time, flow through network and service provisioning, allowing you to maximize network resources, improve customer service, increase data flow, and achieve operational efficiency.

By keeping track of as-built information, as well as planned network views, the system also improves the performance of many other key functions, including procurement, planning, provisioning, engineering, operations, workforce management, and service assurance.

This intelligent, fully customizable system makes it easy to document both inside and outside plant equipment, creating an end-to-end model of the entire network infrastructure. Within its superior graphical environment, Network Engineer displays the model against detailed, land-based features and customer information, allowing users to visualize equipment, capacity, available bandwidth, demographics, and customer information through attribute, spatial, or thematic queries.

Telcordia^® Expeditor is a service order management solution. It is important to highlight that Expeditor is designed to manage and automate the provisioning of all kinds of service orders from start to finish, handling order decomposition, routing, status tracking, business rule validation, message mapping, provisioning/activation, and billing. In other words, it not only supports today’s order management requirements, but goes well beyond them, providing functionality that can be used to automate service provisioning of new services.

Telcordia Granite Inventory is a comprehensive Resource Management and Provisioning platform that stores and manages all of the physical and logical resources that a Communications Service Provider (CSP) needs to manage its resources and services.

Granite Inventory combines intelligent inventory, provisioning automation, and data synchronization functions in a single, open, flexible fulfillment solution. By coupling an enterprise-wide view of operator’s services, application-specific resources, and network with a comprehensive set of provisioning capabilities, it puts the operator firmly in control of its growth.

The core solution stores the entire multi-vendor, multi-technology network image of sites, equipment, configurations and services. It allows engineers to plan and lay out network capacity and assign and design equipment configurations by providing an accurate view of all inventory elements, including network and services resources. It employs an extremely flexible data model to help ensure configurability in a continually changing operational and network environment.
