Comarch launched their OSS Mobile Network Integration, which is a preconfigured OSS solution for GSM/UMTS operators. These operators search for a NGOSS concept based product in the area of inventory management or service assurance. The software bundle is based on Comarch OSS Suite, which is a network and service management platform and is the result of years of experience in OSS projects with large European mobile operators.
Being based on the best industry proven practices and to help operators decrease integration costs, which cause the largest headaches for OSS managers, the most important factors in the search for a solution had been satisfied by the Comarch OSS Mobile Network Integration. “The integration bundle tailored for mobile operators is the result of a long history of successful OSS implementations and is a very important part of our strategy of promoting our strong portfolio in the mobile market,” said Piotr Pi?tosa, VP Telecommunications, Comarch SA.
The solution contains pre-integrated components, which permit employing the best practices and processes of readiness, assurance, and fulfillment from the eTOM framework, along with an extensive library of preconfigured adapters – components that have been designed for integration with the most popular software and hardware vendors and standardized APIs. The solution contains integration libraries for network domains common for all mobile operators, such as radio access, backhaul and core transport, physical inventory and IT infrastructure.
Due to its experience, Comarch has been able to provide a set of specialized products that have been successfully implemented in multiple networks. Originating from configuration and fault management systems, the Comarch OSS Suite consequently developed its own solutions into a powerful and flexible family of modern products. Today, the platform covers areas like resource and service inventory management, top-down service assurance, reconciliation and provisioning strategies and process management with workflow and automations.
One of the advantages of developing the Comarch OSS Suite is that there is an opportunity to have an inside view of the operators’ businesses. From this perspective it becomes obvious that despite geographical, architectural, cultural and scale differences, mobile operators share a number of similarities. They all struggle with the full planning-operational inventory lifecycle, work towards a complete network-service view, and look for constant process optimization in a contract-driven architecture. Quite often they must integrate with the same vendors. “OSS Mobile Integration, a pre-configured platform based on best practices adapted from the market, provides a well-proven solution for these challenges,” said, Krzysztof Jasek, OSS Product Manager, Comarch SA.
