Solution Frameworks (NGOSS)

Enabling Business Process Automation

Overview

TM Forum’s Solution Frameworks (NGOSS) are the widely adopted set of standards and best practices for transforming your business and operations.  Using the Solutions Frameworks will deliver a many times over return on investment through application to business and technical challenges, for example:   

  • rapidly drive down operational costs through industry-proven business process optimization techniques
  • streamline software development by enabling unprecedented reuse and risk reduction
  • sharply reduce full lifecycle systems costs through standardization of interfaces
  • revolutionize procurement processes through creation of a common language
  • dramatically improve time to market for new services by enabling step-by-step implementation of service-oriented enterprise architectural concepts

Visit our Case Study Library to see over 150 case studies on how the Solution Frameworks have been used for success by service providers, systems integrators, software developers and the entire value chain.

 

The Solutions Frameworks provide a comprehensive “toolkit” that may be used as an integrated system end-to-end or as components to solve particular problems. The Frameworks can be applied throughout organizations by process engineers, operations staff, software developers and system integrators.

 

Note: The newly launched Blueprint Program represents a significant step forward in the evolution of TM  Forum’s Solution Frameworks (NGOSS).

A Fast Track BSS/OSS For Online Services
To successfully offer familiar business applications as hosted services, Microsoft® recognized that it needed to design and implement a new set of business processes and supporting infrastructures. This included new business and operations support systems (BSS/OSS) to support the launch of the new Microsoft Online Services business. Using models for creating and running a service business from the TM Forum, a select team used enterprise architecture tools to model a new Microsoft reference BSS/OSS architecture. The team customized and adapted it to accommodate specific business requirements and implemented a completely new BSS/OSS stack in le
