Aricent's approach to Service Assurance enables Communications Service Providers (CSPs) to create and deliver differentiated, high-quality customer experiences and innovative services efficiently and effectively.  The company provides a unified, integrated approach for managing service quality and user experience based on events, service and network performance.  Aricent drives industry best practices and leverages its vast experience across the entire telecom ecosystem and provides unmatched Service Assurance capabilities – from basic element and network monitoring to Quality of Service (QoS) and Service Quality Management.  Aricent's Service Assurance approach delivers continuous improvement in customer satisfaction levels and services delivery through enhanced QoE across networks, services, subscribers and devices.  Aricent follows a five-phased approach that addresses key factors, including technology, objectives, competitive position, strategy and existing capabilities, essential for successful mobile operations, which enables the service providers to grow and be profitable.  The Service Assurance solutions for CSPs are based on proven systems and processes deployed by CSPs worldwide.

"In the highly competitive market for mobile customers, service quality has come to the forefront of consumers' evaluation criteria given its fundamental role in the overall perceived subscriber experience," said Jeremy Green, Mobile Practice Lead at Ovum.  "With new pressures mounting like traffic volume and real-time services combined with future network–straining applications like video chat, service providers are working feverishly to improve service quality and implement a host of assurance initiatives."

Today, 7 of the top 10 communication service providers leverage Aricent's expertise in Architecture, Design, and Integration Testing across networks, services, devices, applications and BSS/OSS systems.
