NANPA — Scope of Work Change #17 Proposal — INC Issue 613



1 Introduction



1.1 Purpose and Scope



In accordance with NeuStar’s contract1 and our constant effort to provide the best
support and value to both the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the telecommunications
industry, NeuStar, as the North American Numbering Plan Administrator (NANPA), hereby submits this
scope of work change to the FCC for approval. This scope of work change is in compliance with
NANPA’s Change Management protocol and per requirements as outlined in NANP Administrator
Solicitation SOL03000001, Section H.9, Item 5, which states the following:





“If and when a change to the NANPA system is adopted by the NANC or the INC, the
contractor’s liaison shall ensure that the proposed change is forwarded to the Contracting
Officer and the Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative (COTR). No change shall be
binding until such modification is issued, nor shall the Government be liable for any costs
associated with a system change until such modification is issued.”


1.2 Modification of Guidelines



Pursuant to NeuStar’s contact, the NANPA shall participate in the development and modification of
guidelines and procedures, which may affect the performance of the NANPA functions. These changes
may be derived from regulatory directives and/or modifications to guidelines. In addition, new
guidelines may be developed as appropriate to comply with regulatory directives. The NANPA shall
adopt and implement any changes that are consistent with regulatory directives after they are
officially adopted, recognizing that some may constitute a change in the scope of work.



When the Industry Numbering Committee (INC) places any changes to its guidelines in initial
closure, the NANPA shall submit an assessment regarding the impact of scope of work, time and costs
to the INC, the North American Numbering Council (NANC) and the FCC within 30 days.2



This document provides detailed information pertaining to the proposed INC requirement that went
into initial closure on February 13, 2009. This change order document covers the required subject
matters such as explaining the industry’s requirements, proposed solution, costs and risk and
assumptions.

NANPA — Scope of Work Change #17 Proposal — INC Issue 613





	2	 	Proposed Industry Numbering Committee (INC) Scope of
Work Change




INC Issue 613 was resolved on February 3, 2009 and went into initial closure on February 13, 2009.
This issue affects the NANP Administration System (“NAS”).





	•	 	Issue 613: Notification of a Service Provider Missing the Part 4 Due Date





The official INC issue statement is stated below and can also be found on the ATIS website:





	 	A)	 	ISSUE STATEMENT
	 
	 	 	 	Currently, the guidelines direct the NANPA and PA to send a reminder notice to SPs
if a Part 4 has not been received during the first 5 months after a code/block
effective date. Once the SP misses the Part 4 due date, there is no notice sent to
the SP advising them that they can no longer enter the Part 4 in PAS/ NAS, but must
now submit a Manual Part 4 to the appropriate regulatory authority. This is causing
SPs to have blocks and codes on the reclamation list that they are not aware of due
to an oversight.
	 
	 	B)	 	FOLLOWING RESOLUTION FROM INC





         COCAG




	8.2.3	 	If a Part 4 has not been received by the Administrator by the Part 4 due date, then the
Administrator will send, via facsimile/electronic mail, a notice to the code
assignee. The notice will be sent on the first day that the Part 4 will no longer be
accepted in NAS, and will direct the assignee to do one of the following
immediately:






	 	•	 	If the code is in service, submit a manual Part 4 to
the FCC or appropriate state commission regulatory authority.
	 
	 	•	 	 If the code is no longer
needed or not in service, return the blockcode(s)
that the SP has retainee by submitting a Part 1
A to the PA via PAS.
	 
	 	•	 	Or request an extension from the appropriate regulatory authority per Section 8.1.






	8.2.4	 	If there are active or pending LNP ports
for any TNs within the NXX code which is being
returned/reclaimed, the CO Code Administrator shall
use the process outlined in Appendix C.




3        NeuStar’s Proposed Solution



Presently, the NANP Administration System (NAS) sends a reminder notice to the service provider if
a Part 4 (Confirmation of CO Code In-Service) has not been received during the first five (5)
months after the code effective date. This reminder notice is sent to those active NAS registered
users that have 1) elected to receive reclamation notices and 2) included the NPA and Operating
Company Number (OCN) in their NAS profile that matches the NPA and OCN associated with the central
office code for which a Part 4 is due.

NANPA — Scope of Work Change #17 Proposal — INC Issue 613



INC Issue 613 requires NANPA to send a second notice to the service provider if no Part 4 is
received within six (6) months of the original code effective date. As such, NAS must be modified
to send the second notice on the first day that the Part 4 will no longer be accepted by NANPA.
This notice will inform the service provider that it must submit the Part 4 to the appropriate
regulatory authority. Further, the notice will be sent to the same NAS registered users that
received the Part 4 reminder notification.



4 Assumptions and Risks



As part of the NANPA’s assessment of this change order, NANPA is required to identify the
associated assumptions and risks that can have an impact on its operations.



Assumptions:





	•	 	Service providers must indicate their desire to receive notices concerning central office
code reclamation by updating their NAS user profile (i.e.,
subscribing to “Reclamations” and
including the appropriate area codes and OCNs in their profile).
	 
	•	 	Those service providers presently receiving the Part 4 reminder notice (sent five months
after the code effective date if no Part 4 has been submitted)
will desire to receive the new
notification.
	 
	•	 	The new notification will indicate to the service provider that the Part 4 must be submitted
to the appropriate regulatory authority. The appropriate regulatory authority could either be the
state regulatory commission or the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The
service provider should know which organization is responsible for central office
reclamations for a particular state.
	 
	•	 	INC Issue 613 also requires the Pooling Administrator to send a notice to the service
provider when the service provider is no longer able to submit the Part 4 for a one thousand
block via the Pooling Administration System (PAS). It is assumed that the required changes
in PAS to introduce this new notification will take place at or near the same time as the
implementation in NAS.





Risks:





	•	 	Service providers that fail to select the “Reclamation” resource subscription or fail to keep
their NAS profile active will not receive the Part 4 reminder notification or the new

notification.
	 
	•	 	In response to receiving the new notification, a service provider may immediately attempt to
submit the Part 4 into NAS. NAS will not permit the Part 4 submission. This may result in
some confusion or frustration on the part of the service provider until it becomes more
familiar with this new Part 4 notice.

NANPA — Scope of Work Change #17 Proposal — INC Issue 613




5 Cost Assumptions and Summary



The proposed solution for implementation of INC Issue 613 requires changes in NAS in order for the
system to send a notice to the service provider on the day that NANPA will no longer accept the
Part 4 and indicate that the Part 4 must be submitted to the appropriate regulatory authority.
NANPA has determined that the cost associated with implementing this change in NAS is $4,361.94.




6 Conclusion



NeuStar, as the NANPA, hereby seeks the FCC’s approval for this Scope of Work Change. Upon approval
by the FCC, NANPA will notify the industry that it is accommodating this Scope of Work change
order.
