The IP telephony technology provides the End Customer with a flexible, coordinated UC platform and a wide variety of functions and features. Telephones or Soft-phones on a PC connect to the Local Area Network and provide traditional business telephony features. The connection to the PSTN telephony network as well as other branch offices and home workers is made via the data network allowing a converged access solution for both data and voice. Support and maintenance is performed centrally. The system is scalable up to very large enterprises of many thousands of users. 4.2.2 UCentriX reduces the traditionally costly and time consuming processes of Moves Adds and Changes (MACs) by providing easy to use web based administration support. The SP manages its customer systems through efficient and easy-to-use administration web tools. 4.2.3 UCentriX is a hosted PBX offering providing a full set of UC features. The features are provided through converged access for both data and voice (broadband IP access) reducing access costs and enabling SP bundling. 4.2.4 With the UCentriX platform solution, SPs can offer the features and functionality of a modern private branch exchange (PBX) as a service, whereby the PBX functionality is delivered to the End Customer over their own broadband and mobile networks. The End Customer does not need to install special hardware in their premises, other than fixed telephones, and so the service requires only a small capital investment. As this is a centrally managed and delivered service there is significant reduction in on-site expenditure for support when compared to traditional models. 4.2.5 The UCentriX service can be delivered to large companies. There is no practical or physical limitation to how large or diverse an End Customer could be to benefit from the service. An End Customer organisation with offices located throughout the country, or indeed internationally, can act as though there was one central PBX in use for the whole company. The number plan can be fragmented so that each offices or region can have their own number series. 4.2.6 The UCentriX service integrates with mobile networks through its Fixed-Mobile Convergence (FMC) features, providing functionality from the end-users mobile phones. [9]

All orders will be verified and SP notified of rejection or acceptance in accordance with the SLA 4.3.5 Additional licences will be delivered and installed onto the SP account in accordance with the SLA. 4.3.6 Payments would be collected via the DD Mandate at the next billing cycle. 4.4 Network Services provisioning and billing 4.4.1 SPs have two options available to them for provisioning Network Services.

that collectively make up UCentriX. Events are automatically raised to Eximus Solutions and our partner Advoco who will actively investigate the event and take any necessary action to remedy the issue. This management suite also collects performance and usage data which enables Eximus Solutions, along with its partner Advoco, to proactively manage the systems and may provide corrective action before a fault occurs.

Outside of these hours, the SP will use the online Fault Reporting system for all faults. Technical and Sales enquiries will not be handled outside of the Core Hours. Where an SLA applies for fault rectification, the clock will start when the SP has provided to Eximus Solutions Technical Desk all the relevant information contained in the fault log. The clock will stop when a solution or work around supplied by Eximus Solutions has been applied. SP will verify this and inform Eximus Solutions when the fault can be closed. 4.9.4 With the implementation of the Systems Management Applications Suite, all critical and service affecting faults will be actively managed by Eximus Solutions. 4.9.5 SP s that raise a fault via the SP portal or Technical Helpdesk Number will have the fault assigned a severity level.
