Terminating Minutes of Use Validation

For a number of years, smaller LECs have relied on the larger LECs, who have generally been the owners of the tandem switch collection and distribution points for exchange and interexchange traffic to provide them with call details of incoming or terminating interexchange traffic. This is in line with the historic standard that calls for the first point of switching that a call encounters entering a LATA to be the place where such calls are recorded. These call details then have typically been data converted into Exchange Message Interface (EMI) format and distributed for billing purposes to the LEC owners of the subtending end-office switches for each tandem.

The role of the tandem owner has become increasingly more involved as Competitive Local Exchange Carriers and Wireless Providers have entered the scene. The EMI provisioning process has been complicated to a point where a LEC subtending a tandem switch can no longer just assume that everything must be correct.

AMADEUS enables the LEC to utilize its own end-office switch recorded details of incoming traffic in combination with EMI detail records to isolate and resolve any and all cases where apparent under-billing has occurred. The impact of the process on a single switch LEC recently amounted to nearly a twenty percent increase in what had been billed previously in the form of terminating reciprocal compensation.
