TMForum Expands Disaster Recovery CatalystTMForum Expands Disaster Recovery Catalyst

MORRISTOWN, N.J. -- The NATO C3 Agency and TM Forum’s Defense Industry Group today announced that the third phase of the Secure, Federated Service Management Catalyst will be launched at Management World 2011 (May 23-26, Dublin, Ireland). In disaster situations, rapidly deploying a reliable communications infrastructure is essential to managing a recovery effort. This TM Forum Catalyst project provides relief and government agencies and communications providers on the ground with an architectural blueprint for the rapid rollout of critical communications services.

By applying TM Forum best practices and standards – including TM Forum’s flagship Frameworx suite of standards – the blueprint includes a requirements directory to scope and define a series of quality of service (QoS), service assurance, policy enforcement and fulfillment benchmarks that partner nations can exchange.
