The Salesforce Communications Industry Framework helps CSPs accelerate their transitions to the cloud and improve customer engagement across channels. The framework includes assets such as data model specifications; a white paper with entity- relationship diagrams and usage patterns; API and process documentation; and much more. Built in accordance with TM Forum Frameworx, the framework empowers communications companies to implement the world's #1 CRM solution to address key business processes, such as managing accounts, ordering services or handling billing inquiries, faster than ever before.

At Dreamforce 2016, attendees will have full access to the "Enabling the Personalized Customer Journey" demonstration in which Apttus' CPQ, CLM and E-Commerce, along with Comptel's FlowOne, Monetizer, Fastermind and Data Refinery products, interoperate via the Salesforce Communications Industry Framework. The transformative solution, targeted at the consumer market will provide:

  • Self-service configuration and order provisioning
  • Real-time network usage trackin and smart service upgrade recommendations
  • Product interoperability to streamline the entire Plan-to-Provision flow
  • Transparent catalog-to-order flow, orchestration and fulfillment
  • Service usage monitoring and analysis



"The telecommunications industry understands the pressing need to provide customer-centric, cloud-based utility and intuitive self-service to all of its consumers," said Andy Baer, Andy Baer, SVP, Salesforce Industries, Communications and Media. "Our Communications Industry Framework gives our partners, such as Comptel and Apttus, an opportunity to deliver best-in-breed solutions and successful business outcomes to help our customers succeed and thrive."

"Generation-cloud consumers want to be treated as individuals by using a service that meets their expectations and aligns to the way they live their lives," said Juhani Hintikka, CEO, Comptel.

Only then will they be able to seize the increasing new opportunities for data, content, applications and service monetization. The Salesforce Communication Industry Framework has helped to enable that opportunity."
