OABM
Open Access Business Manager

Open Access processes fully automated.

With the OABM, you can automatically offer your customers wholesale products such as L2 bitstream access. The Open Access Business Manager helps you manage all open access processes—from quoting to billing—in an efficient, transparent, and audit-compliant manner.

What is the OABM?

The OABM helps you, as a network owner (service provider), offer wholesale products to your customers and automate the ordering, implementation, and billing processes. The OABM can also handle the provisioning of system technology or the creation of a monthly billing file. Even as a customer on other network owners’ networks, you can automatically manage and execute the entire ordering process for wholesale products.

Who is the OABM suitable for?

  • As a network operator, you want to market wholesale products yourself, manage orders, and submit automated billing.
  • As a buyer (e.g., a service provider on third-party networks), you can automate the entire ordering process.

In other words: The OABM operates independently of network size, supports both supplier and consumer roles, and meets all requirements of the BNetzA regulations.

Why OABM?

In response to the request from the BNetzA (Federal Network Agency), network operators are inevitably being asked to address issues related to network usage by third parties (Open Access). This goes so far as to require the creation of regulations regarding pricing, descriptions, and so on. That’s the theory, at least—but it becomes reality when a third party wishes to take advantage of this offer. The requirements and solutions aren’t new—not for everyone.
