Clarity Announces Field Service Manager Solution

9:59 am   -   June 26th, 2008

New module tightly integrated to Clarity’s Unified OSS platform

Clarity announced the commercial launch of a workforce management module that is tightly integrated to its Unified OSS solution: Clarity Field Service Manager (CFSM). It is the industry’s first COTS-based workforce management product to be tightly integrated to a common inventory, fulfilment, and assurance suite within a singular database model. The CFSM offers new levels of out-of-the-box business process automation in both the fulfillment and assurance domains and will be a unique offering to Tier 1 fixed line and wireless operators globally. In addition to having already received substantial interest in this product, Clarity has already signed contracts to deliver the solution to several Tier 1 customers.

The CFSM improves efficiency of operator field staff by enabling the optimal allocation of resources via the use of key parameters such as location, availability, skill set, equipment, capacity, and availability of service. The solution enables field service staff to gain real-time views of inventory and assurance data, and allows real-time updates by field staff using PDAs and laptop computers. Clarity believes that with the addition of the Field Service Manager, the Unified OSS solution now enables unparalleled levels of process automation and will have a substantial impact on the quality of services delivered by Telecom operators.

In a recent report launched at TMF Management World Nice in May 2008, Yankee Group examined the benefits of integrated OSS functionality. The report, a commissioned work conducted by Yankee Group on behalf of Clarity, entitled “Unified OSS Architecture is the Critical Underpinning for Automating the Telecom Service Delivery Factory”, investigates how carriers can provide agility and responsiveness while remaining competitive. Ari Banerjee, Senior Analyst at Yankee Group and author of the report, commented, “Only automated zero-touch OSS solutions will help lower network and operations cost. Streamlined OSS strategies are a necessity in the current highly competitive and complex telecom environment, where a unified OSS solution such as Clarity’s can act as a competitive differentiator. Clarity’s launch of Field Service Manager further supports this future direction of OSS.”

“With telco operators focusing on service quality as a key differentiator, Clarity’s unified OSS solution allows carriers to streamline their services and lower the costs associated with fragmented architectures, which also hinder flexibility and increase time to market for service providers,” said Tony Kalcina, Executive Director and Head of Product Management, Clarity. “Clarity intends to help carriers to innovate and achieve operational excellence via our standards compliant pre-integration capability.”

Stocks heads to lower open ahead

Wall Street headed for a lower open Wednesday with investors worried about the economic fallout if Detroit's Big Three automakers are unable to persuade lawmakers to give them a $25 billion bailout.

The market will again be glued to testimony given during the session by top executives from General Motors Corp., Ford Motor Co. and Chrysler LLC. They are asking Congress for a massive infusion of cash to prevent millions of layoffs, stave off bankruptcy and stabilize the companies.

Investors are concerned at the repercussions should any of the three automakers collapse, an event that could ripple through an already battered economy. Congressional Democrats have proposed using part of the $700 billion financial bailout package to pump into the ailing auto industry, but Republicans oppose such an approach.

HP shares soar after solid 4Q outlook

Hewlett-Packard Co. offered a fourth-quarter outlook slightly above Wall Street's expectations Tuesday despite the sagging economy, going against the grain even as other technology bellwethers have slashed forecasts and posted weak results in recent weeks.

The Palo Alto, Calif.-based company expects earnings of 84 cents per share and adjusted earnings of $1.03 per share for the three months ended in October. This is slightly better than the $1 per share, excluding items, that analysts polled by Thomson Reuters are expecting.

Wall Street appeared ready to retreat again Tuesday, as stock futures sank amid nervousness about the fate of Detroit's Big Three auto makers.
