Partial Private Circuits • Forecasting • BT has now confirmed that AOC can be agreed independently of ACO. Operators taking advantage. • Proposal to manage low volume forecast/order tracking • Where a customer forecasts less than 5 in a 4 month period the order tracking needs to be more flexible e.g. • In each bandwidth group • · Where 4 are forecast then an order for 3 or more wont be penalised. • · Where 3 are ordered then an order for 2 or more wont be penalised. • · Where 2 are forecast then an order for 1 or more wont be penalised. • Tolerances • BT will apply common sense approach to %age change tolerances allowed from one forecast quarter to the next. Where the tolerances cannot be practically applied. • Very little feedback received, BT to implement and put contract changes through.
