12、6. FOREWORD ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is the United Nations Specialized Agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of the ITU. The ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questio

13、ns and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Recommend

14、ations on these topics. The approval of Recommendations by the Members of the ITU-T is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSC Resolution No. 1 (Helsinki, March 1-12, 1993). In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collabo

15、rative basis with IS0 and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration” is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency.

20、111 STD-ITU-T RECMN E-BOL-ENGL L77b m Li8b2572 0b25362 588 m Recommendation E.801 FRAMEWORK FOR SERVICE QUALITY AGREEMENT (Geneva, 1996) This Recommendation focuses on developing a Service Quality Agreement (SQA) between Recognized Operating Agencies (ROAs), network providers and/or service provider

21、s. 1 Introduction In the current telecommunications environment, the networkhervice providers face increasing competitive pressure and customer driven requirements for reliable trouble free communications. A method to satis these requirements is for ROAs (Recognized Operating Agencies) to have joint

22、 service quality agreements. ROAs are strongly encouraged to develop SQAs with diverse ROAs so that service quality can be improved worldwide. 2 Purpose The SQA is a bi or multilateral agreement between interconnecting ROAs, network providers and/or service providers to initiate a formalized program

23、me to monitor, measure and set targets that are intended to satis the end user and other customers. When appropriate, mutually agreed action plans will be developed to improve a target that is below the expected level of performance. This Recommendation outlines a framework for a service quality agr

24、eement that networkkenice providers can mutually use to provide an agreed level of network and service performance. The SQA shall provide an agreed understanding between ROAs for measurements and targets that satis the end user. This framework (Annex A) can be used for any switched or dedicated serv

25、ice and incorporate any relevant ITU-T Recommendations. An optimum SQA would include customer surveys and relevant network measurements that can correlate to the customer surveys. But it is not necessary for the networkhervice providers to utilize customer survey results to have a satisfactory SQA.

26、A SQA that is solely based on technical network measurements can provide an acceptable service quality management process. 3 Framework The format and contents can, of course, be mutually developed by the networkhervice providers, but an outline example is shown below: 3.1 Typical list of contents -

27、Introduction. - Scope. - Confidentiality. - Legal status. - Measurements and targets. - Management review process. Recommendation E.801 (10/96) 1 - STD-ITU-T RECMN E-BOL-ENGL 177b E LiBb2571 b25383 LiLLI m - Signatories. - Annex description: a) Contact point(s); b) List of measures; c) List of terms

28、 and definitions. 3.2 Description of contents by item 3.2.1 Introduction It describes the purpose of the service quality agreement, namely: a) b) c) to assist the networldservice providers to exchange appropriate service quality and network performance data to a mutually agreed understanding; to pro

29、vide the base information of measurements and targets to prioritize and develop joint action plans for quality improvement initiatives; to define performance levels provided to each party within the scope of the agreement. 3.2.2 Scope a) b) A broad outline of the services covered within the SQA. A s

30、tatement on the types of measurements supporting the objective andor subjective criteria and parameters that are within the capabilities of each contributor. 3.2.3 Confidentiality A statement of confidentiality that details the treatment of the agreement and the sharing of information between the co

31、ncerned parties. 3.2.4 Legal status A statement of commitment to improve service quality within mutually agreed targets and treatment of failure to meet an agreed target whether or not contractual conditions are chosen to apply. 3.2.5 Measurements and targets A list of services, measurements and tar

32、gets agreed upon by the parties (refer to Annex B). NOTE - An example of a measurement page is shown in Annex C. 3.2.6 Review process a) b) A statement on the transfer of information, i.e. frequency and format. It may also include bilateral meetings on an annual or semi-annual basis. A statement on

33、the fiequency of review of the SQA contents; this is to keep it up to date as new services or measurement techniques are developed. This will also allow review to take place as the end user/customer expectations change and the SQA can be updated to these new levels of performance. 3.2.7 Signatories

34、The appropriate level of management fiom each party should sign the agreement to ensure the proper resources can be made available and the necessary actions can take place. 2 Recommendation E.801 (10/96) STD-ITU-T RECMN El8OL-ENGL L9lb 9 Lib259L Ob25384 350 m 3.2.8 Annex description Annexes to the S

Annexes would typically include contact points, service descriptions, measurement details and supporting technologies. Annex A to Appendix I - Contact point(s) Contact point(

B.2 Measurements B.2.1 Objective (technical and/or network) The measurements should be applicable to the service and any current or proposed ITU-T Recommendations can be

41、used. It may be of interest to the parties to use measurements not covered by current ITU-T Recommendations when these may be better suited to measure the service. Some typical examples of measurements that can be included: - service provision; - service restoration; - - availability of interconnect

42、ion(s); fault occurrence rate (customer reported andor network detected); 4 Recommendation E.801 (10196) STD*ITU-T RECMN E-801-ENGL I99b D qBb2591 Ob2538b I23 W - - - traffic performance; - facsimile performance. customer trouble reports (complaints and/or faults); end-to-end testing (either non-int

The results can be obtained through interviews with customers or via statistical analys
