For mobile, landline and cable service providers, voice services are a core, profitable part of the business.  With voice revenues flat or on the decline, the focus on operations comes down to providing the right level of service at minimum cost.

Based on its scalable OnePlan product, VPIsystems' Voice Network Optimization solution uses network analytics to provide a what-if environment for minimizing capital and operating expenditure while maintaining the required grade of service for customers.

By taking into account actual subscriber calling patterns through Call Detail Record (CDR) analysis, network topology and system performance metrics, this solution analyzes calling patterns and network behavior to identify cost savings through accurate network sizing.  An intuitive GUI and a collaborative environment drastically reduces the planning and analysis cycle and eliminates errors.  Examples of use cases enabled include;

• accurate dimensioning of trunk groups and network elements
• subscriber growth or decline planning and analysis
• rehoming analysis for load balancing and better network utilization
• route analysis to optimize least cost routing for regulated regional boundaries such as LATA
