  5. SUNCOM’s OaSIS is… • Open because it provides SUNCOM customers access to more SUNCOM data, Application Program Interfaces and a software library of custom applications. • Shared because it enables customers to develop software applications, use and modify software written by other customers.

  6. SUNCOM OaSISTechnologies for Improvement m Database restructuring Metadata tags Framework Integration and data exchange with other systems Open Source Library

  7. Database Restructuring • Establish new relationships between data • Eliminate the restrictions of intelligent codes (like CSA) and the need to understand them • Empower customers to… • Create accounts based on any customer priority like… • Various levels of organizational hierarchy • Grants • Projects • Move services between accounts • Consolidate bills • To include a variety of services on one bill • To include services from a variety of vendors on one bill

Metadata Tags m • Will allow customers to label any data they can see like… • phone numbers with the name of the phone user • circuits with specific locations • any service with grant IDs, project IDs, etc. • Becomes data in SUNCOM systems that is owned by the customer yet related to SUNCOM data • Becomes permanent, universal tag until customer changes it • Can insert tags at any stage and use in any other stage • Order • Inventory • Invoice • Audit

  9. Framework • Standardized interfaces • For customers writing applications • For vendors exchanging data and processes • Simplify future development • Functions developed once, reused in many areas by many developers • Eliminate duplicated functions

  10. Integrated Processeswith other Systems • Allow vendors and SUNCOM to pass data to each other in real time • Example uses: • Customers order from vendor’s web site, OaSIS immediately gets all necessary CSA data from vendor • Centralizes order and inventory data no matter where order is submitted • Vendor updates vendor records upon service activation, then sends updates to OaSIS • Eliminate double entry and improve accuracy • First integration technology to be use will be Open Authorization (OAuth)

  11. Open Source Library m • Customers will be able to write custom applications using… • SUNCOM data • Meta data • Standard functions written by SUNCOM (APIs) • Stored in OaSIS library and run through SUNCOM instances • Customers will be able to use and modify applications written by other customers • Will create a community of programmers within the State enterprise

  12. Summary of SUNCOM CustomerSelf-Service Empowerment m • Establish and empower users • Permanently tag services and charges • Independently create/modify accounts • Consolidate or separate bills • Write own custom applications for… • Orders • Invoices • Audits • etc. …using standardized interfaces and routines …and by modifying applications written by others • Order through other systems
