The software is currently being implemented to provision their Cisco-based MPLS IP VPN service offerings, including the ATM network core. Cap Gemini, a leading telecommunications systems integrator, has developed a pre-integrated framework that supports Cisco's Internet OSS architecture. Architel has been working with Cap Gemini to incorporate components of Architel's offering into Cap Gemini's pre-integrated framework. Operators are looking for Carrier Grade OSS solutions which can scale to meet the demands of rapidly growing IP networks and services which are delivered using multiple technologies. This enables service providers to reduce the time it takes to implement ordered services and minimizes the cost of delivering the services.
Service providers are in a competitive battle.
They need quick solutions that don't require them to integrate software on their own.
