Automation to Report and Manage Trouble Tickets

When trouble arises – as it undoubtedly will – everyone, from the Originating Service Provider (OSP) to the end user customer, wants fast and complete resolution. Communications Service Providers (CSPs) who deliver service through interconnection with off-net carriers must report service issues to the originating provider. This chain of trouble reporting – from subscriber to CSP to the off-net carrier – is labor intensive, inefficient and expensive. And it takes time.

Streamline Trouble Ticket Administration

UOC TroubleAdmin automates the exchange of trouble ticket data between CSPs and the off-net carrier. In one web-based solution, TroubleAdmin supports trouble ticket reporting on circuits, facilities, and network elements including Broadband, TDM and Ethernet and related systems. CSPs reduce the time, complexity and number of errors associated with trouble reporting and resolution with multiple trading partners.

  • Single interface for multiple providers. UOC TroubleAdmin interconnects to multiple service providers, including AT&T, CenturyLink, Frontier and Verizon, providing a single portal to input required ticket data, track submitted tickets, and monitor and report on status. All in real time.
  • Pre-submission validations. Built-in data validation ensures tickets meet the carrier-specific business rules before tickets are submitted, reducing error and delays. On-screen help provides business rules for each field.
  • Real-time dashboards. Dynamic views of the number of open, closed and cleared tickets allow users to easily monitor ticket status and updates, including open, cleared and closed.

Share data across different networks and report service problems quickly and efficiently.
