TORONTO -- TierOne OSS Technologies Inc. (TierOneTM), a leading OSS consulting, integration and technology specialist, today became the first OSS software vendor to be awarded ‘Verizon Testing Partner’ certification.

Verizon awards the certification only to those organizations that demonstrate an understanding and commitment to Verizon’s Systems Integration and Testing (SIT) expectations for product quality. TierOne OSS Technologies is one of a very select few to achieve the status, and now joins companies such as Fujitsu Network Communications, Tellabs and Redback Networks.

“The goal of the Verizon Testing Partner Program is to speed the deployment of innovative technology so that Verizon can get products to market more quickly and more cost effectively,” said Paul Vedam, President and CEO at TierOne. “We are delighted that Verizon has recognized that TierOne has the development processes in place to ensure OSS solutions of the very highest quality.”
