6 Telecommunication Networks
A set of supporting systems providing processes and applications
that help communication service providers [CSP] to manage and
maintaining their network.
What is OSS all about?
Assurance
Fulfillment
Providing customers with the
new services they order
Ensuring a customer’s
service meets its SLA
Planning Ensuring the network is sized
to support services

Don‟t have sufficient tools to support network changes and network rollout
Lack of a time-lined
consolidated view was
selected as the challenge
“The rollout plan never goes to schedule and you
have to adjust the plans. This is where tools can
really help.”
“Trying to get all of the groups building to the same
end-to-end plan is a major issue.”
“Coming up with a plan that is cheap enough to do
has been an issue recently.”

Do more in a connected world with OSS
> Maximize the value of new technology rollouts for LTE, Carrier Ethernet and FTTx
> Increase profitability and reduce TTM by deploying fulfillment Operational Product Packs
> Reduce time to market and time to deliver with model-driven service fulfillment
> Improve the customer
experience by speeding
up fault resolution and
becoming more pro-
active in Service
Assurance
> Enable convergence
between IT and Network
assets with a CMDB.
> Activate multi-channel
services utilizing an
Enterprise Product
Catalog
> Optimize capacity utilization with complete visibility of all services across network and IT resources (CMDB OPP, Asset Management Pack, Inventory & Discovery)
> Ensure high levels of data integrity between the network and inventory with Data Integrity Management (Discovery and Synchronization)

OSS – selected features
> Mobile Backhaul OPP [Operational Product Pack]
> Visualizing the entire hierarchical network as a human skeleton, the core network would represent the spine, the backhaul links would be the limbs, the edge networks would be the hands and feet, and the individual links within those edge networks would be the fingers and toes.
> Positioned for 4G/Ethernet (New OPP with the addition of Resource Planner)
> Catalog Driven Service Delivery
> Preconfigured templates for easy generation of an activation request
> Inventory Support for Asset management
> Inventory Support for CMDB (Configuration Management Database)
> Supports converged, next-generation networks on an ITIL compliant CMDB (New Operational Product Pack)
