Archived System CR SCR031103-01 Detail

Revision to Products: Resale Act = N,C,V,T

Listings Act = R

Centrex 21 Act = V or C

Original CR Description - Mcleod requests a change to the edits or processes regarding complex listings on a resale order with the ACT = N. Mcleod would either like Complex listings be allowable for resale customers on an ACT of N or we would like the DL form to become conditional based on a related HB order attached to the Provisioning order via the RPON field. At this time the CLEC has to submit a dummy listing on the DL form due to the DL form being required, then turn around and process a secondary order to remove the dummy listing and have the correct complex listing established.

Expected Deliverables/Proposed Implementation Date (if applicable):

Mcleod expects to be able to process complex listings on an ACT of N order with minimal rework required by the CLEC. This is either by the changing of the requirement of the DL form on an ACT of N for resale customers, or changing the process to allow complex listings to be established with the provisioning order. This would make the resale products more consistent with the UNE product. And allow for order flow consistency for both the CLEC and Qwest.

The next point value (10) should be assigned to the CR that Qwest and the CLECs wish to be implemented second and so on. The lowest point value (1) should be assigned to the least desired CR.

- July 17, 2007 Email Received From BendTel: Peggy That sounds fine to me. Thanks. Kay Griffith

- July 17, 2007 Email Sent to McLeod and BendTel: Good Morning, Thank you for meeting with us yesterday and discussing your CRs for Complex/Caption Listings. Below is a proposed change to the CR Title, Description, and Impacted Products for McLeod USAs Change Request. McLeod's CR will then reflect the request from BendTel's CR as well. Please let me know if the below revision, for McLeods CR, is okay. I will then make the actual revision to McLeods CR. BendTels CR is currently in Pending Withdrawal Status and will be withdrawn at the July CMP Meeting. Proposed Revision: TITLE: Changes to Edits or Process Regarding Complex/Caption Listings DESCRIPTION: Request is for changes to the edits or processes regarding complex/caption listings on a resale order with the ACT = N, C, V, T. Would like Complex/Caption listings to be allowed on the provisioning order for Resale customers. At this time the CLEC has to submit a dummy listing on the DL form due to the DL form being required, then turn around and process a secondary order to remove the dummy listing and have the correct complex listing established. Would also like orders to flow through, for consistency. PRODUCTS: Resale Act = N, C, V, T Listings Act = R Centrex 21 Act = V or C Thank you. Peggy Esquibel-Reed Qwest Wholesale CMP

- July 16, 2007 Conference Call Attendees: Joyce Bilow-McLeodUSA, Kay Griffith-BendTel, Lynn Stecklein-Qwest, Peggy Esquibel Reed-Qwest, Chuck Anderson-Qwest, Carol McKenzie-Qwest, Rossana Robinson-Qwest, Anne Pent-Qwest

Lynn Stecklein-Qwest stated that the purpose of the call was in order to discuss CRs that were submitted by McLeod and by BendTel. Lynn stated that Qwest has reviewed the two requests and that as Qwest was looking at the requirements for these CRs, Qwest found that there are possible synergies and that is what we want to discuss on the call. Carol McKenzie-Qwest stated that Qwest analysts looked at the two requests and did find them to be similar as they are both asking for the ability of one provisioning order on caption listings. Carol stated that the CRs could be combined and could cover the applicable products and make it flow through. Carol stated that this work would benefit the CLECs and Qwest and the combining of the CRs would eliminate additional work that would need to be done for separate CRs. Carol stated that Qwest would like to propose that the two CRs be combined with the McLeod CR being revised to include the information from the BendTel CR and that BendTels CR could then be withdrawn. Carol stated that it would then make flowthrough reasonable. Carol then asked for comments from McLeod and BendTel. Joyce Bilow-McLeodUSA agreed to the Qwest proposal and stated that McLeod had wanted to previously add to their CR but that the LOE would have increased. Joyce stated that Qwests proposal is a better solution because it would cover all areas and Activities of N, C, V, T, and Listings only. Kay Griffith-BendTel also agreed to the proposal. Carol McKenzie-Qwest stated that Qwest would then ask that McLeod’s CR be revised since it was submitted a few years ago and that BendTels CR be withdrawn. Kay Griffith-BendTel asked if Qwest really thought that complex listings could flow through. Carol McKenzie-Qwest stated that the effort was reviewed and that Qwest believes it to be workable. Carol then stated that this would be a large request but noted that it would benefit everyone. Lynn Stecklein-Qwest then stated that the next step would be for McLeod’s CR to be revised and BendTels CR to be placed in pending withdrawal status. Lynn then noted that the revised McLeod CR would be eligible for the IMA 23.0 Prioritization exercise. Carol McKenzie-Qwest asked if there were any additional comments, questions, or concerns. Joyce Bilow-McLeod said no. Kay Griffith-BendTel also said no. Lynn Stecklein-Qwest thanked the call participants and stated that Qwest would be contacting McLeod for the revision to their CR. The call was then concluded.

Excerpt from CMP Monthly Meeting April 22, 2003

SCR031103-01 Changes To Edits Or Process Regarding Complex Listings On An Act Of N Order For Resale (Originated by McLeodUSA) Stephanie Prull/McLeod USA reviewed the CR description of change. John Gallegos/Qwest stated that Qwest wanted to discuss how the dummy listing would be handled. He stated that the issue was discussed during the clarification call and that Qwest proposed in the response how it would be resolved. He said that Qwest assumed it would be set up as a non-pub listing, so the order would not be delayed. He said that Laurel Nolan had sent the response to Stephanie. Stephanie Prull/McLeod USA said that she hadn’t seen it, but that she would look for it. Candy Skaff/Eschelon asked if the CLECs would be charged for the dummy listing. John Gallegos/Qwest stated that they would not be charged. Stephanie Prull/McLeod USA asked how the dummy listing would be different then the non-published charge that they currently receive. John Gallegos/Qwest stated that he would take an action item to clarify how the charges worked and report back to the team. Bonnie Johnson/Eschelon asked if the CLECs were forced to do two listings because of a system limitation. John Gallegos/Qwest stated no, and that this CR is enabling the CLEC to submit without all the information on directory listings. He stated that the CLEC would come back to Qwest and provide the listing information, if they didn’t have it up front. John Gallegos/Qwest noted the LOE of 1800 to 3000 hours

Attendees: Stephanie Prull-McLeodUSA, John Gallegos-Qwest, Laurel Nolan-CRPM Qwest

Review of request: Nolan-Qwest reviewed the CR title and description. She asked if there were any questions or additions. Gallegos-Qwest asked about identifing the products impacted. Prull-McLeod stated that she was lery about making the DL form ocnditional. She stated that she would like to have the function at the time of provisioning the order. Gallegos-Qwest stated that it would help decrease the number of orders. Prull-McLeod stated that McLeod had had problems with publishing dummy listings. Gallegos-Qwest stated that he would research options. Prull-McLeod stated that Eschelon had also had issues with this and that if another call was needed to discuss options then they should also be included. She stated that it would occur regardless of the product.

Interfaces and Products: Nolan-Qwest reviewed the products of UNE-P, Contrex, Resale and IMA Common as the interface. She asked if there were any change. No changes or additions.

Confirm right personnel involved: Nolan-Qwest stated that the business representative was not able to attend and that Qwest would have a meeting with the business. She stated if there were any additional questions or concerns then she would contact Prull-McLeod.

CLEC Expectations: Nolan-Qwest reviewed the written expectation. "Mcleod expects to be able to process complex listings on an ACT of N order with minimal rework required by the CLEC. This is either by the changing of the requirement of the DL form on an ACT of N for resale customers, or changing the process to allow complex listings to be established with the provisioning order. This would make the resale products more consistent with the UNE product. And allow for order flow consistency for both the CLEC and Qwest."

Next steps: Nolan-Qwest stated that this CR would be presented by McLeod in the April meeting and that Qwest would provide a response prior to the meeting.

Meeting adjorned.

CenturyLink Response

REVISED RESPONSE April 16, 2003 RE:SCR031103-01

Qwest has reviewed the information submitted as part of McLeodUSA Change Request SCR031103-01. Based upon research that has been conducted following the Clarification meetings (held March 21, 2003) Qwest able to provide an LOE of 1800-3000 for IMA. There are no SATE impacts for this change. The change in edits will entail McLeod's recommendation to use the RPON field to make the DL form for a resale provisioning request with an ACT=N conditional based on a related HB (Listing Only) request.

In order for the provisioning orders to process correctly, Qwest will enter a designated non-pub listing on the provisioning order when issued, which will be removed once an order is issued and the complex listing request is completed.

At the April Systems CMP Meeting, CMP participants will be given the opportunity to comment on this Change Request and provide additional clarifications. Qwest is interested in the experiences of the CMP community as relates to this issue. Qwest will incorporate any feedback received into further evaluation of this Change Request.

This change is eligible for the IMA 15.0 prioritization.

Sincerely, Qwest
