Our team is perhaps first in India to have developed/ implemented these standards for a leading telecom company in India.

With the rapid advances in telecommunications technologies of the recent past, the number of vendors supplying equipment to carriers has increased. More than ever, service providers need integrated end to end management across devices and technologies from many vendors. They want to manage the multi vendor/multi technology devices through a common management system that integrates across these diverse set of devices.

The Tele-Management Forum (TMF) standards for multi-technology, multi-vendor network management (TMF MTNM or TMF 513) provide new opportunities for the integrated end-to-end management and provisioning of multi-vendor networks. The TMF Standard facilitates this by enabling a NMS to create and manage end to end connections and devices across TMF complaint EMSs.

In order to enable such integrated management, telecommunications equipment providers need to support TMF interfaces in their EMS products. To help equipment vendors more easily deliver TMF interfaces.

This standard allows for:
• Inventory Discovery
• Connection Provisioning
• Equipment Provisioning
• Performance Management
• Fault Management

Consequently enables
• Rapid Service Delivery by decreasing service activation time
• Fast introduction of new technologies: New Technologies can be introduced in the Network without causing major changes to the interfaces at the Network Management Level.
• Increased Operating Efficiency through automation and integration of network management and element management systems.
• Enable multi-vendor interoperability affording service providers the option of choosing various vendor products.

We developed Telecom solutions based on standards TMF 513, 608 & 814 for a major telecom organization in India.

Benefits to the end user or customer
As a consequence of the Service Providers’ benefits, the customers will benefit by:
• An improved service: the provisioning of new service will be fast and the unavailability of the service will be limited due to the correlation of network fault to services.
• Reduction of prices: The reduction of Service Provider cost will lead to the reduction of service prices.
