TeleManagement World
DALLAS & LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tribold today announces the latest version of its leading Product
Management enterprise application software specifically built for
Communications Service Providers (CSPs). Tribold Product Portfolio
Manager (PPM) further extends the company's
technology leadership in the rapidly expanding CSP Product Management
sector. Incorporating widespread support for Service Orientated
Architecture (SOA), the new release further simplifies the process of
integrating a centralized product management catalog at the heart of the
CSP enterprise - enabling service providers to rapidly provide
customer-driven, on-demand product and service delivery.
Building on the increasing operator adoption of service oriented
architectures, Tribold PPM v2.4 further enables seamless integration and
communication between the consolidated product catalog and the vast
array of OSS and BSS systems, by enhancing the automated integration
process, reducing complexity and injecting flexibility into the network.
"As we move towards a converged environment,
operators are under increasing pressure to rapidly create and deliver an
extensive range of bundled services," said
Catherine Michel, Chief Technical Officer, Tribold. "These
services are now the only way to create differentiation in today's
competitive market, and effective product management is increasingly
accepted as the best way to do this."
Key features of Tribold Product Portfolio Manager version 2.4 include:
more flexible integration with the OSS/BSS systems that require product
catalog information, such as billing, CRM and provisioning; reduced
complexity for service providers looking to adopt a Service Delivery
Framework (SDF) and Platform (SDP); seamless exposure of product-related
information for system footprint and reporting to enable service
providers to make more informed business decisions. Tribold's
innovative approach to product management is also setting the
foundations for off-the-shelf connectors to leading OSS and BSS
applications.
Tribold Product Portfolio Manager version 2.4 is on general availability
from 31 January 2007.
