 Get Started with Managing New Technologies Initiative | | | |
The TM Forum Managing New Technologies Initiative is all about managing the all-IP core, mobile and fixed access infrastructures. Technologies such as LTE, LTE-Advanced, WiMAX, MPLS, Carrier Ethernet and fibre access technologies will form the backbone of rationalized, multi-service networks replacing the myriad of earlier generation TDM based technologies over the next decade. Networks no longer exist in isolation.
Three core operational factors will continue to dominate;
- continually reducing operational costs;
- continually improving the customer experience and continually innovating new services
- continued reductions in launch cycle times.
In order to meet these objectives, new, simplified, network infrastructures require matching advances in the operational processes and systems that create, deliver and monetize the services that run over these networks.
The main aims of the Managing New Technologies Initiative are to ensure that management standards are fully compatible across the next generation of back-haul, core, mobile and fixed access technologies using common process and information models.
The Initiative focuses on driving this topic across the entire body of TM Forum work – our events, our publications, our products and our technical program.
Individual programs will run under the initiative which will focus on sets of related deliverables, driven by industry requirements and managed using a more formal collaborative R&D approach, with tighter project management, well defined deliverables and milestones, and committed resources so that the market can be confident that the right standards will be available in the right timeframe.
The initial program of the Managing New Technologies Initiative is the Managing Next Generation Wireless-Wireline Program.
