Description Of Change |
|
Qwest has an internal practice for tandem Switch Homing Arrangement (SHA) changes that is no longer practical nor in compliance with industry guidelines. That practice allowed a "grace period" of 10 business days to accept traffic at the "old" tandem and continue termination to the final destination. See ATIS (Alliance for Telcom Industry Solutions) document 0300037, Network and Routing Resources Educational Document: Intercompany Responsibilities in the Telecommunications Industry.
Excerpt: Effective Date - The date by which routing and rating changes within the PSTN must be complete for the assigned thousands-block or the assigned CO Code. Also, the date by which the thousands-block becomes an active block. (Also referred to as “the LERG effective date.”) (Emphasis added by Qwest.)
Each provider determines the LERG effective date that is to be implemented. Qwest has no control over that date. Qwest will no longer provide a grace period and will make appropriate changes to our switching fabric on the LERG® (Local Exchange Routing Guide) effective date.

There were no objections. 8/19/09 ProdProc CMP Meeting Susan Lorence-Qwest said the level 4 announced on 7/20/09 and there were no formal comments. The final notice was sent on 8/11/09 with an effective date of 8/26/09. 7/15/09 Systems CMP Meeting Todd Rodgers-Qwest said there is an internal practice for tandem Switch Homing Arrangement (SHA) changes that is no longer practical nor in compliance with industry guidelines. That practice allowed a "grace period" of 10 business days to accept traffic at the "old" tandem and continue termination to the final destination. See ATIS (Alliance for Telcom Industry Solutions) document 0300037, Network and Routing Resources Educational Document: Intercompany Responsibilities in the Telecommunications Industry.

Each provider determines the LERG effective date that is to be implemented. Qwest has no control over that date. Qwest will no longer provide a grace period and will make appropriate changes to our switching fabric on the LERG® (Local Exchange Routing Guide) effective date. Kim Isaacs-Integra asked what system is changing and why this was submitted as an Industry Guideline CR. Lynn Stecklein-Qwest said that per the CMP document an Industry Guideline CR is presented as a System CR and if no system work is needed, the CR is crossed over to Product and Process.
