Hi Bonnie and Julia,

We are in the process of creating requirements for the candidates in IMA Release 24. One of the candidates, SCR100903-01 Responsibility for chargeable USOCs, appears to have much work already done.

The initial description was: 10/29/03 Eschelon and McLeod jointly sponsor this CR. Currently CLECS are responsible for passing chargeable USOCs for Non Recurring Charges. Current examples are Additional Listings, Ani Swap Charges, Tagging the DMARC charges, etc McLeod USA is requesting that the CLEC no longer have to pass a chargeable USOC and that the Qwest flow through, billing, and service centers be responsible for applying the correct billing USOCs to the service order. This request is for Non recurring type charges or charges for directory listings.

We believe the requested functionality already exists for Additional Listings.

We need some clarification regarding what is meant by "ANI Swap". I have checked internally and no one is familiar with this process. Possibly we know this by different terminology. Can we get more information on this?

For Tagging the DMARC requests, NW1 or NW2 USOCs could only be added to service orders by Qwest via a remark in the Remarks section of the LSR to tag the DMARC. Since Remarks are free form, Qwest would be unable to flow these requests mechanically. The only way of accommodating this request would be to drop these requests for manual handling and implementing a process change that would require Qwest SDCs to add these USOCs to the service order. If this is something that Eschelon and McLeod want to pursue, it should be handled as a process change request rather than a system change request.

We also have existing functionality to add the Non Recurring USOCs for Intercept or Transfer of Calls and number change charges.

Thanks,

Lynn Stecklein Qwest Wholesale CMP

3/3/04 Additional Clarification Call

Attendees: Steph Prull - Eschelon, Kim Isaacs - Eschelon, Bonnie Johnson - Eschelon, Conrad Evans - Qwest, Denise Martinez - Qwest, Lee Gomez - Qwest, Lynn Stecklein - Qwest

Discussion:

Denise Martinez - Qwest asked if this request requires both mechanical and manual support for the application of these non-recurring charges.

Stephanie Prull - Eschelon stated that they want both and said that if it did not flow through they would want manual.

Denise Martinez/Qwest asked does the request specify Facility Based Listings and stated that our current and any previous processes do not require any USOCs to be passed for Facility Based Listing requests. Denise asked if they still feel that listings are an issue we need examples. Denise stated that we can definitely provide the non-recurring charges for requests other than Facility Based Listings.

Stephanie Prull - Eschelon stated that they have examples.

Denise Martinez/Qwest said that she wanted to share that because the CLECs have requested this functionality when Qwest applies these non-recurring charges, there will be no PIA entry provided to indicate a difference between what was requested vs. what was ordered.

Steph Prull/Eschelon said that as long as they knew and could build business rules around those entries.

Denise Martinez/Qwest said that the request mentions tagging the DMARC and asked if it was for Unbundled Loop only or other products. Denise stated that Unbundled Loop does not require USOCs be passed and that the existing process calls to mark as MH (Manual Handling) and enter a Remark regarding tagging.

All Products will be noted on this request.
