Project Meetings

1/15/14 Product/Process CMP Meeting Mark Coyne – CenturyLink said the CR is currently in CLEC Test as of December 16, 2013. On that date, the interval due date of 22 business days became effective due to the increased complexity of turning up the NG911 circuits. Mark said we would like to move this CR to a Completed status and asked if there were any objections. There were none.

12/11/13 Product/Process CMP Meeting Mark Coyne – CenturyLink said when the CR was presented in October, CenturyLink requested that we send a level 2 notification vs. a level 4 notification. The level 2 notice to change the current interval due date to a longer due date interval of 22 business days was sent on November 25 with an effective date of December 16. Mark said on December 16 we will move the CR to CLEC Test.

11/20/13 Product/Process CMP Meeting Mark Coyne – CenturyLink said this CR was presented last month associated with Next Gen 911 Trunk FOC Coordination. Jim Carroll, CenturyLink, had provided some background indicating that CenturyLink is replacing the current 911 network infrastructure with an IP based network and that it is a multi stage process that includes considerable complexity to turn the circuits up. This CR includes plans to change the current interval due date which is a standard 12-business days to a longer due date interval of 22 business days. Mark relayed that the planned effective date for the new Due date interval is mid December so we will be sending out the level 2 notice soon.

10/16/13 Product/Process CMP Meeting Next Gen 911 Trunk FOC Coordination and CenturyLink Walk On Change Request PC101413-1 - Change to NG911 Trunks Standard Interval Mark Coyne – CenturyLink reviewed the walk on request from Integra.

Jim Carroll – CenturyLink said the approach with Next Generation (NG) 911 is to replace the current network infrastructure with an IP based network. Jim said it is a multi stage process. The current stage is for carriers to move to new routers which go by a variety of terms for these emergency gateways. Jim said that the complexity to turn the circuits up has grown significantly. Because of this, Jim said he issued the Walk on CMP Change Request to extend the Due Date to account for the extra work that is required. Jim then presented the new CenturyLink Change Request PC101413-1 which extends the current due date of a standard 12-business day Due Date to a 22 business day Due Date.

Kim Isaacs – Integra said Thank you and requested a place holder for the OS DA Change Request to see if the trunking orders may be impacted similarly.

Mark Coyne – CenturyLink said that CenturyLink would like to propose that the Change Request be implemented on a level 2 21 day timeline vs. the normal timeline for this type of change which would be 45 days. Mark asked if there were any objections. There were none.

David Garland – Iowa Network Services asked if the new Change Request was limited to specific states and whether it would impact Iowa.

Jim Carroll – CenturyLink said the Change Request is not limited to specific states but to where the Emergency services trunks are migrating to the CenturyLink NG platform. Jim said in Iowa there is an interesting layering but this change only applies when CenturyLink migrates away from legacy analog for wireline in Iowa. Jim said it does impact activity associated with TCS which is a layer.

Mark Coyne – CenturyLink asked if there were any other questions. There were none.
