the language of efficiency

Imagine throwing away 20% of your yearly capital expenditures. That’s the reality for a surprising number of service providers — to the tune of $65 billion lost industry-wide. The culprits? Poor communication, mislaid assets and mismanaged inventory as a direct result of critical data being scattered throughout your organization in a variety of formats, managed by different business functions. This makes sharing information and effective collaboration difficult, if not impossible.

TruOps Common Language® was designed to put an end to all that waste, once and for all.  It keeps everyone working together. For service providers whose operations involve an overwhelming amount of moving parts, Common Language promotes consistency by standardizing the way your ecosystem refers to locations, equipment, circuit paths and service use. 

bring order to the chaos

Common Language ensures the flow of consistent and accurate information throughout your organization’s infrastructure by providing a common:

  • Name for locations, equipment, connections, services and virtual functions
  • Pinpoint view of network sites across business operations
  • Way to optimize processes through automating operations

Common Language centralizes all your information, so you can eliminate duplication and errors. The Common Language App simplifies inventory management by enabling you to have real-time access when identifying and tracking communications equipment and network assets from the convenience of your mobile phone or device. And, with the network view feature, you get an enhanced view of your network to make decisions easier and more accurately. As a result, costly mistakes are avoided, and efficiency between business divisions, corporate partners and even vendors is dramatically increased.

standardization, simplification and optimization

Common Language enables the standardization of infrastructure, data and assets by defining common rules for the physical labeling of network equipment. Enforcing consistent equipment ordering codes allows you to maximize efficiencies, eliminate human errors and data silos and facilitate the identification, tracking and monetizing of equipment assets intra-company and across country lines.

Common Language increases simplification by enforcing process automation. At the same time, it provides a shared and detailed map view of network connections, so you can see your network data, in real time, along with the most up-to-date financial information, to increase efficiencies and productivity across your entire organization.

It also optimizes efficiency, offering enhanced visibility of your network and assets as data and with a digital map. You can pinpoint compatible replacements for priority fixes, locate and reuse equipment to reduce waste and manage recalls with no impact on service levels. And by using the Common Language App, users can simply scan their existing equipment to access its attributes and functionalities or scan new equipment to download the attributes to a central database.  

mobile management with the Common Language App

CLEI subscribers now have access to a powerful tool to help service providers manage their network equipment more effectively.

With the TruOps™ Common Language® App for iOS and Android, users can:

  • scan barcodes to collect CLEI Code/Serial Number or ECI data for equipment at a particular location. 
  • query the real-time iconectiv CLEI repository by CLEI code, entered via scan of a barcode or manual entry to view its attribute data.
  • access and download inventory files.
