Within the TMF there is a strong definition of process (the eTOM) and data (the SID) but there lacked a formalised way of grouping together function and data into recognised components, which would then be regarded as potentially procurable as either applications or services

This project will produce an Telecom Applications Map to provide this grouping - describing and naming a set of applications, together with the data they act upon/use and the function/process they perform and an element of decomposition/grouping. These applications are synonymous with services.

Project Activities:
The team is currently developing Revision 3.

This aim being

• To produce a new guidebook describing a real-world use of the TAM in the areas of Order Management and Resource Management.
• To enhance the content to be consistent, specifically focusing on the Resource Management and Service Management sections

** The team is always interested in any member company prepared to expand those application areas not yet developed. Please contact Piyush Sarwal or Andy Chalmers
