Hello David & Enrico:

Attached is the TM Forum response to the Liaison Statement from TISPAN WG8. In summary, we are in agreement that this liaison is desirable and will benefit service providers who wish to use standard SOA interfaces for the configuration and activation of IP multi-media services. The response includes a proposed work plan and next steps and a request for exchanging relevant documentation to facilitate a better understanding of the different approaches before attempting to harmonize the respective work. We have included 4 relevant TM Forum documents for your review:

Ø TMF518_SB Service Basic – Describes the technology neutral data model for mTOP Service Management

Ø TMF518_SA_1 Service Activation Part I – Describes a general overview of mTOP Service Activation, including the Service Activation Interface (SAI), and the Service Component Activation Interface (SCAI)

Ø TMF518_SA_2 Service Activation Part II – Describes the SAI which resides between the eTOM CRM layer and the Service Management and Operations Layer (SM&O) and is responsible for “customer facing services” (CFS) and “service orders” (SO)

Ø TMF518_SA_3 Service Activation Part III – Describes the SCAI which resides within the SM&O layer of the eTOM and is responsible for the activation of “resource facing services” (RFS)

Please send the requested ETSI-TISPAN SuM and the 3GPP equivalent documents to Jessie Jewitt. She will serve as the primary contact point within the TM Forum for this liaison activity.

Thank you,

Debbie Burkett
