Abstract

For end-to-end service management reaching from end-user to end-user we need cooperation of management systems from private and public service providers. In a liberalized telecommunications market there will be multiple providers of bearer services and value-added services competing and cooperating to meet customer requirements. Within this paper we describe how the TMN standards serve as a useful framework for end-to-end service management in an open service environment with multiple providers. We use the results, experiences and plans from the PREPARE1 project to illustrate the possible options and solutions discussed.
