Better ADSL service delivery
ADSL South Africa (Broadband South Africa), 26
November 2007
Broadband Service Assurance Solution (BSAS) is the grand name
given to Telkom’s latest attempt to fast track ADSL Broadband service delivery. Phase 1 of BSAS
will be launched on the 1st of January
2008.
This must come as good news to ADSL Broadband Providers and ADSL
users because ‘…the solution will enable wholesale customers to perform primary support for their customers with
secondary assistance from Telkom’ (Telkom to beef up ADSL ISP support, MyBroadband, 22 November
2007).
According to the Group Executive for Wholesale Sales and
Marketing Operations at Telkom, Aphonzo Samuels: “The BSAS will provide users with remote automated self-help
and self-diagnostic tools” (Telkom to beef up ADSL ISP support, MyBroadband, 22 November
2007).
He added: “ISPs will be able to provide first line maintenance
and support capabilities on ADSL access services, thereby improving customer service” (Telkom to beef up ADSL
ISP support, MyBroadband, 22 November
2007).
In other words, it’s clear that chances are very good that BSAS
will help to improve customer
service.
