Telcordia® Telephone Number Tracker and Forecaster

Telephone Number Tracker and Forecaster is an application that fulfills service providers' and regulators' demands for continuous, accurate tracking and forecasting of telephone number usage.

Dramatically simplifies number administration by:

• Optimizing usage of numbers by giving a clear, company-wide view of number utilization and forecast
• Automating data extraction, formatting, and verification
• Automating the generation of regulatory reports to respond to audits
• Producing forecasts that avoid costly regulatory audits and help to maintain uninterrupted service delivery and revenue streams.

This sophisticated number management application extracts and formats telephone number data from one or more administration systems. Then it analyzes a company's telephone number utilization, identifies historical trends, and automatically forecasts telephone number needs and time-to-exhaust of numbering resources.

The system's analysis engine utilizes a number of variables related to the assignment and use of telephone number resources, including quantity, assignment status, number type, service type, and historical trends. Users can also add their own criteria to the application's parameters, such as marketing promotions or the anticipated addition of a large customer account. The system stores data for any user-specified time interval, and automatically generates reports for internal purposes and regulatory authorities.
