Comarch Launches OSS Mobile Network Integration

Comarch announces the launch of OSS Mobile Network Integration – a preconfigured OSS solution for GSM/UMTS operators, who 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 - a network and service management platform and is the result of years of experience in OSS projects with large European mobile operators.

 

- The most important factor in the OSS Mobile Network Integration is that it is based on best practices proven in the industry and is intended to help operators decrease integration costs – the largest headache for OSS managers. 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 - says Piotr Piątosa, VP Telecommunications, Comarch SA.

 

The solution contains pre-integrated components realizing best practices and the processes of readiness, assurance and fulfilment from the eTOM framework, along with an extensive library of preconfigured adapters – components dedicated for integration with 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.

 

Thanks to its experience, Comarch has been able to provide set of specialized products which 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 Comarch OSS Suite 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, look for constant process optimization in a contract-driven architecture and, quite often, must integrate 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 – says Krzysztof Jasek, OSS Product Manager, Comarch SA.
