Press Release:

Telcordia Executive to speak at ITU Telecom World

Michael Anderson to discuss critical role that fulfillment plays in telecom networks

PISCATAWAY, NJ - November 28, 2006 - Telcordia (www.telcordia.com) today announces that Michael Anderson, Senior Vice President, Marketing and Strategy, Telcordia Technologies, will be a featured panelist in the ITU World Congress's session "Billing, payments and customer care in the new environment." The session will discuss how billing, payments and customer care can be transformed from a business burden and overhead into a competitive advantage and the role that a comprehensive fulfillment approach plays in that process. ITU Telecom World 2006, "Living the Digital World," will be held in Hong Kong, China, from December 4-8, 2006.

The presentation is in line with Telcordia's market-leading position on fulfillment which gives wireline, cable and wireless operators a flexible end-to-end solution for designing and provisioning new services. The Telcordia Fulfillment Suite (http://www.telcordia.com/markets/fulfillment/index.html), which includes the newest releases of Telcordia® Granite Inventory, Telcordia® Activator and Telcordia® Expediter for provisioning, discovery and activation, is available today and already deployed at Tier 1 operators. With this enhanced suite, operators can easily build complex service bundles and now have the tools necessary for end-to-end service design, resource management and lifecycle management. It simplifies the fulfillment process because operators can make a single change in service definition and flow that is then automatically funneled down to other support systems, instead of having to make multiple changes at each point in the process. This helps operators speed new services to market, better manage sophisticated services and seamlessly integrate existing systems, which results in increased network efficiencies and lower total cost of ownership.
