Syndesis, the leader in Convergent Service Delivery Management (CSDM) solutions, is pleased to announce that BT is implementing Syndesis® TrueSource™, the most widely deployed data integrity management solution, for discovery and reconciliation across its entire 21st Century (21CN) IP-based network. Under the license agreement, Syndesis will enable auto-discovery, live discrepancy management and reconciliation to accurately track services and network assets, recover resources and enhance processes, including provisioning.

The Syndesis solution will be integrated across multiple Operational Support and Business Support Systems (OSS/BSS).

Syndesis will help BT transform the communications and entertainment experiences of its customers across the UK and provide an unrivalled service experience.”
Syndesis TrueSource’s service and asset discovery, network mediation, live discrepancy management and reconciliation enables communications service providers (CSPs) to accurately track their network assets and correct network, inventory and billing errors. This helps to eliminate production-stranded resources and ensures that customers are billed for the services, and levels of service, that they receive. (more…)
