Gary Veik/Qwest stated that the March release is for OBF changes for data elements. Connie Winston/Qwest stated that questions regarding products that are CLEC impacting should be brought to CMP. Connie stated if the products were other than LIS Trunking, the IXC Process is where those questions should be taken.

Terri Lee/SBC asked the CLEC Community if they had enough questions, do they ask them all at once. Liz Balvin/MCI stated that maybe they can have a User Group.

Connie Winston/Qwest stated that CMP is appropriate for CLEC questions and asked that the CLECs also look at the FAQ Section of the web site for information.

She then reviewed SCR062802-02 (ASR Pre-order Via XML New App-to-App) She stated that Qwest was seeking a decreased timeline and has submitted an Exception Request (SCR030403-01EX) Lynn Stecklein/Qwest said that a notification will be sent that will provide the logistics for the Vote Meeting to be held on March 26, 2003. She also reviewed what a ‘Yes” and ‘No’ vote will indicate. A vote of ‘Yes’ will indicate a preference to deploy SCR062802-02 (ASR pre-order via XML) on the target date of July 1, 2003 in conjunction with SCR062802-03 (ASR validation). This deployment would have a timeline of 100 days versus a timeline of 270 days for a new application to application as defined in the CMP process. A vote of ‘No’ will indicate a preference that Qwest NOT implement a change to the timeline. Donna Osborne-Miller asked whom she should contact if she had questions. Beth King/Qwest stated that any questions could be sent to her or the cmpcr@qwest.com email box. Liz Balvin/WorldCom asked about XML.

Terry Lee/SBC asked if these were target dates Beth King/Qwest said that yes they were target dates.

August 22 Systems CMP Meeting Discussion: Kim Kessler/Qwest - this is to replace the 3270 TELIS application, which is limited in its functionality. Replacing with a new GUI. The orders will go through faster, the ASRs will get submitted much faster and cleaner. Terry Wicks/Allegiance - you are saying that the TELIS application will be eliminated. Kim Kessler/Qwest - yes. Terry Wicks/Allegiance - with 20,000+ hours it will never get prioritized. Judy Schultz/Qwest - this is not an IMA candidate, it will not impact prioritization. Terry Wicks/Allegiance - ok, thank you. Liz Balvin/WorldCom - is there an implementation date? Kim Kessler/Qwest - not yet. We will follow normal notification process. Liz Balvin/WorldCom - this obviously won’t have a prioritization, how does it get approved, how do you get CLEC approval? Judy Schultz/Qwest - we submitted a CR, as we are required to do. This is an early heads-up, wanted to get it on the table to let everyone know what’s going on. The CMP process will be followed. There will be dual functionality for a brief time. Liz Balvin/WorldCom - ok Jonathan Spangler/AT&T - what is the impact to electronic bonding? Kim Kessler/Qwest - those impacts are discussed in the next two CRs. Michael Buck/Qwest - this will be updated to presented. Qwest will bring information forward as it is known.

RE: SCR062802-01 Access Web Application. QORA GUI Application.

QORA (Qwest On-line Request Application) will be utilized to support the ordering of access services. This application will replace the existing TELIS application which can not support enhancements required by the industry. QORA will provide pre-order Validation for address and CFA information, will provide more stringent edits than those currently in the Industry Standards ASR document, will provide immediate feedback on errors, and allow customers to track ASRs.

Qwest has reviewed the information submitted as part of Change Request SCR062802-01. Based upon the scope of this CR as agreed to in the Clarification Meeting (held July 2, 2002) Qwest is able to provide an estimated Level of Effort (LOE) of 20,000 hours for this Change Request.

At the next Monthly Systems CMP Meeting, CMP participants will be given the opportunity to comment on this Change Request and provide additional clarifications. Any clarifications and/or modifications identified at that time will be incorporated into Qwest's further evaluation of this Change Request. Qwest will review release schedules and development timetables in an effort to evaluate options for potential scheduling of Change Request SCR062802-01.

Sincerely,

Qwest
