Challenges:
 

Cognizant understands that service providers are tasked with significant Network Inventory Management challenges such as:

  • Legacy system inefficiencies
  • Long provisioning intervals
  • Incomplete carrier-to-carrier reconciliation
  • Under utilized infrastructure
  • Inconsistent data across multiple systems
  • A silo mentality across the user groups

Solutions to these problems can require significant investment and other resources, but increased spending doesn’t always result in an inventory management system that is synchronized, accurate, and efficient. Furthermore, Service Providers must continue to expand their service delivery framework to support next generation IP services that are rapidly becoming mainstream.
