Now more than ever, Communications Service Providers (CSPs) need to transform their legacy service introduction and fulfillment processes—which are too slow and resource-intensive—into a competitive advantage that accelerates time-to-revenue and improves customer experience.
Blue Planet® Service Order Management (SOM) meets these needs with catalog-driven zero-touch service order fulfillment that dynamically discovers the network’s service capabilities, automates service activation, and provides complete order workflow visibility and control.
Importantly, Blue Planet SOM uses standard APIs to easily integrate with customer order management systems and together with other elements of the Blue Planet Intelligent Automation software portfolio, it also provides a solid foundation for Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) business models.
