Flagship Toolset - eLexicon(TM) - Critical for Maximizing Operational Performance and Providing Business Assurance for Service Operators
LONDON, June 8, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cartesian, a TMNG Global company, today announced that one of its flagship proprietary toolsets, eLexicon™, is now compliant with the industry standards developed by TM Forum – eTOM (enhanced Telecom Operations Map) and TAM (TM Forum application Framework). This toolset is critical for providing Business Assurance for service operators and in evaluating complex business and operations processes such as service assurance, business process management, revenue and cost management, billing and mediation.
Commenting on the toolset enhancement, Rich Nespola, Chairman and ceo of TMNG Global said:
"As service operators strive to keep pace with today's digital market dynamics, they need to re-evaluate every aspect of their existing business operations. Well-executed business requirements and operational analysis requires the right toolsets to properly evaluate whether an operator's existing business applications and systems are meeting user needs and performing optimally. We've taken our intellectual property and linked them to the industry standards and now have the ability to cross-reference our proprietary requirements with industry requirements to better serve our clients and to ensure that they make the most of their investment dollars."
The eTOM model, the most widely used and accepted standard for business processes in the telecommunications industry, describes the full scope of business processes required by a service provider and defines key elements and how they interact. TM Forum's TAM provides a model for grouping processes and their associated information into recognisable applications.
Cartesian's proven methodologies and toolsets, advanced analytical capabilities, and deep market and customer insights help clients assure their business and create lasting and sustainable value through improved operational performance, reduced expenditures and optimal efficiency.
Howard Watson, Cartesian's Managing Director added:
"In order to provide a true end to end approach to requirements and optimisation, we have reconfigured eLexicon™ to include Order to Cash, Switch to Bill, Strategy, Infrastructure, Product Lifecycle, and Enterprise Management, as well as Security Management, Revenue and Fraud Management, and Human Resources. Thus, eLexicon™ is the indispensible tool to create maximum business value from investment decisions."
