Next Generation Networks (NGN) promises a high quality end-user experience. Telecommunications service providers expect the NGN framework to provide them with tools that would ensure customer loyalty. However, the path towards achieving the ideal NGN is fraught with formidable challenges. The most critical challenge confronting operators is optimizing their OSS and BSS platforms, systems, and processes.

The OSS/BSS vendor environment is extremely competitive with close to 400 vendors, mostly specialized in niches and having a strong services arm. Vendor categories include Comprehensive Solution Providing Pure OSS/BSS Vendors, Comprehensive Solution Providing Composite Vendors, Skill-set Extension Solution Providers and Core Strength Concentrators - BSS and OSS. The vendor landscape is characterized by extensive M&A activity.

With research beginning in 2007, the report Next Generation Network OSS/BSS Market and Forecast 2010-2015 provides a comprehensive analysis of drivers and issues related to technical and business aspects of OSS/BSS deployments and developments while forecasting their growth over the next five years. With the global economy at large beginning to show concrete signs of a turnaround from the recent slowdown, the erstwhile sunrise sector - telecom is at the forefront on capitalizing these good tidings. Consequently, operators are more willing to spend on refurbishing, augmenting and establishing OSS and BSS setups. Additional impetus for the operator bullishness is derived from the promise heralded by wireless broadband, which is universally looked upon as the single most promising factor. This optimism is reflected in the revised market sizes for OSS and BSS solutions. While the optimism is spread pretty much across the OSS/BSS board; systems that are instrumental in fresh rollouts as well as those that deal with revenue leakage will stand to benefit the most, as is evidenced in the respective revenue growth rates.

Technical Overview of OSS and BSS in NGNs: This section begins with an introduction to OSS and BSS and their roles in the operator environment. It explains the various blocks that go into building of the OSS: Network elements, events, alarms and others. It next explains the BSS building blocks: Billing, rating, mediation, charging, customer care and others. This section is followed by the description of prevalent industry approaches like TMN - FCAPS model that are widely followed by operators. The section then analyzes the technical impact of NGN on OSS and BSS architectures.

Vendor Analysis: Profiles of vendors offering OSS/BSS products and services for next generation networks. This section first explains the basis of vendor selection including vendor classification, innovative contribution, market leadership position and future growth path. Each vendor is then analyzed in the light of its product and solution portfolio, major implementations, differentiating aspects with other vendors and their future plans. The report includes recommendations to vendors including diversification, best practices, market segment, and solution approach.

Quantitative Analysis and Forecast: This section begins with a detailed explanation of the research methodology. Quantitative analysis includes measurable items such as billing systems, network management systems and their sub-classes (mediation, wholesale billing, retail billing, CRM, revenue assurance, resource management, task management, delivery management, synchronization management) along with geographical segmentation, trends and projections. Importantly, the quantitative analysis assesses the impact of various drivers and issues on the above measurable items, thus forming a logical conclusion of the quantitative discussion in the previous sections.

Note: This section represents a comprehensive forecast including Forecast Methodology by Overall OSS and BSS Software Market, Split by OSS and by BSS separately, by geography (NA, EMEA, CALA, and APAC), and by modular break-up including: Network Planning and Engineering (NPE), Fault Management (FM), Performance Management (PM), Provisioning and Service Activation (PSA), Inventory Management (IM), Billing and Customer Care (B&CC), Mediation (MD), and Revenue Assurance (RA). The section also includes OSS/BSS Vendor Rakings Based on Net Profit Margins.

    Key Findings:

    - While both OSS and BSS functions will witness a healthy
      growth, traditional OSS functions will grow faster than traditional
      BSS functions.
    - IM will register the maximum absolute growth in terms of revenues
      among the traditional OSS functions followed by PSA and NPE,
      signaling a return to the rollout era..
    - Revenues of B&CC and MD will grow at a lower than average rate,
      while RA will emerge as the fastest growing BSS function.
    - APAC will top the growth in terms of revenues and percentage
      share among geographic regions, CALA will follow. NA will continue
      to remain the largest market for OSS/BSS solutions. While the NA
      region will have fewer new network roll-outs, it will continue to
      generate substantial customer additions. APAC and CA-LA will witness
      hectic activity on both: new network roll-out as well as customer
      additions, while EMEA will show modest activity on both these fronts.
    - Share of services component in the revenues will increase from
      less than 40 percent to more than half.

    Audience:

    - Network operator managers tasked with making long-term
      architecture and support system decisions including vendor decisions
    - Product management personnel concerned with the impact of OSS and
      BSS systems on next generation application and services rollout such
      as IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) and technology and/or application
      frameworks or platforms
    - Managers and Directors tasked with OSS responsibilities and
      anyone that is involved in OSS/BSS decision making
    - Vendors, suppliers, and service providers to network operators
      interested in their prospects for selling into the carrier marketplace
    - Network and Engineering personnel seeking specific information
      such as leading OSS/BSS Approaches including as OSS/J, OSA/Parlay,
      MDA, Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL). This
      publication has both business/market information and technical
      information!
