Description Of Change |
WCom requests that Qwest make its document which identifies Qwest Central Offices equipped with Message Delivery Service Intraoffice (MDS) / Message Delivery Service Interoffice (MDSI) / Message Waiting Indicator (MWI) available in Microsoft Excel format --in addition to the PDF format currently provided.
The document is currently provided within Qwest’s SMDI Network Disclosure website (http://www.qwest.com/disclosures/netdisclosure366.html) as a PDF download. The document in the PDF format permits a read-only use of the document, and therefore prohibits users from selecting and copying/pasting specific data elements for adding into another spreadsheet.
WCom needs the ability to select and copy/paste specific content of the document so that the data elements can be added to a WCom internal spreadsheet being created for determining MWI availability. Therefore receiving the Qwest document in an excel format will provide a copy of the document in a format that can be manipulated by CLECs for their own use.
This request asks Qwest to offer the document to CLECs in an excel format each time the document is updated; such that when notification is distributed that the PDF version on the website has been updated, an excel version (of the current document) could be provided to CLECs.

They advised the format is not very user friendly. They would like it available in Excel format also so they can manipulate and the use the data for their purposes. Mark – World Com said the underlying document to the PDF file is an Excel spreadsheet. World Com would like to use the CLLI Code data on the spreadsheet. They thought they needed the NPA/NXX data but have determined they need the CLLI data. World Com will need to re-key all the data if they can’t get it in an excel spreadsheet. They are currently using the LERG to compare against this document and determine availability. Qwest clarified there is another World Com CR that requests to have NPA data added to this document. Qwest asked if WC no longer needs the NPA data? Mark advised he is not aware if anyone else at World Com needs the NPA data. He can only speak to his part of this request and he does not need NPA data any longer. Liz agreed she would check to see if they could withdraw CR030503-2. World Com advised they went to their Service Manager Pam O’Connell for this request and was advised to submit a CR. Cindy Macy – Qwest asked if it is possible to provide this request where would World Com like the spreadsheet to be located? World Com advised their preference would be on the same web site location as the current PDF file. 3.0 Confirm Areas & Products Impacted Cindy Macy – Qwest explained that MDS/MDSI is an ESP product offering and MWI is a CLEC product offering. 4.0 Confirm Right Personnel Involved Yes 5.0 Identify/Confirm CLEC’s Expectation To have this document in an Excel and PDF format 6.0 Identify any Dependent Systems Change Requests CR PC030503-2 7.0 Establish Action Plan (Resolution Time Frame) Liz will present this CR to the CLEC Community at the April CMP Meeting Qwest will provide a response at the May CMP Meeting Liz said she would like us to provide our response at the April CMP Meeting. Cindy – Qwest advised the CMP Process does not support the response being required at the April Meeting. Liz asked if she requested an ad hoc meeting would Qwest be able to provide the response sooner? Cindy replied she was not sure the requirement of the ad hoc meeting, but she offered to check and see if Qwest can complete our response sooner, can we also provide the response before the May CMP meeting. Cindy did send Liz an email on 4-1-2003 advising her that if Qwest is able to complete the response sooner we will provide that to World Com, and not wait until the May meeting.

CenturyLink Response |
May 14, 2003 For Review by CLEC Community and Discussion at the May 21, 2003, CMP Product/Process Meeting Liz Balvin Carrier Management WorldCom SUBJECT: Qwest’s Change Request Response - CR #PC031703-1 This is Qwest’s Response to WorldCom’s request to have Qwest provide its disclosure document Simplified Message Desk Interface (SMDI), located at http://www.qwest.com/disclosures/netdisclosure366.html, in Excel format. This request is accepted. Effective the week of May 12, 2003, Qwest will provide this document on the web site referenced above in both PDF and Excel formats. Because the Excel document can be updated by users, the PDF document will remain the primary source for Qwest data. Qwest respectively calls the attention of the CLEC community to the following disclaimer, which will be added to the web site: “Please see the PDF download for switch detail in regards to this service. An Excel version containing the switch detail is also available, but Qwest will not be held responsible for any alteration of the Excel version and will refer to the PDF download as the primary source of data.” Sincerely, Mallory Paxton Senior Process Analyst Qwest Services Corporation
