9、nagement Forum (TMF). ii ITU-T Rec. M.3050.3 (03/2007) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for

10、studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study

11、groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis wi

12、th ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory prov

13、isions (to ensure e.g. interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of su

14、ch words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no positi

As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protect

30、ber of example scenarios are described in this Recommendation. These can be considered as “use cases“, if this terminology assists, with a business, rather than an implementation perspective, since the eTOM framework and these scenarios seek to define the business requirements rather than a particul

31、ar solution that addresses these requirements. Nevertheless, since these scenarios are examples, certain assumptions have been made about the nature of the business problem concerned, and it should be stressed that these assumptions do not imply that the eTOM framework can only be applied in the con

32、text described. Instead, these are intended to provide insight for the cases considered, but many other scenarios and examples can be addressed, and it is hoped that as the work on the eTOM framework progresses, a growing library can be assembled on these. It should be emphasized that the representa

33、tive process flows shown here should not be viewed in the same light as the process elements set out in ITU-T Rec. M.3050.2: these process flows illustrate how to apply the eTOM framework and the process elements in support of representative business scenarios, and thus provide additional insight in

34、to the use of eTOM. The value of information is confirmed when it is put to use. The eTOM framework has many possible applications, but the most obvious way to use a framework of process elements is to use it to guide the design of actual process flows that deliver value for the enterprise. To appre

35、ciate this, it is important here to differentiate between process flows and process elements, especially from the point of view of how they relate to standardizing processes. The Process Elements in the eTOM framework are intended as an exhaustive list, i.e., an enterprise uses only the eTOM process

36、 elements when categorizing business activities within process implementations. Should an exception arise where some activity is identified as not being supported by (i.e., able to fit within) any existing process element, then a new process element would be created and added to the eTOM framework i

37、n order to maintain its role as a comprehensive process framework. The Process Flows represent the way that the business activities (in the form of the process elements) can work together to satisfy a particular need. An exhaustive list of process flows will never be completed because needs are cont

38、inually changing, but this is not an issue as the individual scenarios, and the process flows developed around them, provide insight that contributes to an enhanced understanding of how the eTOM framework can be used. What is important for an enterprise that is trying to improve its efficiency by re

39、-using its process and IT capabilities, is that it must ensure that process flows are built using business activities that are categorized using only the eTOM process elements. ITU-T Rec. M.3050.3 (03/2007) 3 The representative scenarios and process flows described in this Recommendation make use of

40、 a tried and proven method intended to ensure that process flows can be built using the eTOM process elements in order to address the actual business needs identified in each case. For the scenarios included here, some description is included with each explaining the scenario concerned and its scope

41、 of application. A number of diagrams have been developed to assist in fleshing-out these scenarios. The first scenario, on fulfilment, explains the use of these. Many of the diagrams are produced with the aid of a process analysis tool, and some of the conventions involved may not be obvious. The f

42、low diagrams are organized into “swim lanes“ or horizontal tracks that follow the layers visible in the eTOM framework (e.g., CRM, SM or the network/service provider has dynamic access to the charging and rating rules for the specific service required plus the charging/discount rules for the individ

Post-conditions The customer is presented with the charge or rate that will be applied to that user if they buy this product (and, if applicable, any alternative charging options) so the user can continue with, or reject, buying this product.
