Accelerated streamlining and harmonization of telcos’ enterprise and business architectureCRESWICK, AUSTRALIA – KUSEL, GERMANY, April 5, 2018
Leading lifecycle modeling platform developer, Sparx Systems, together with the TransWare AG, has announced the public release of the TM Forum Frameworx reference model, supported via the Pro Cloud Server collaboration platform and MDG technology within Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect - an agile collaboration solution for the global telecommunication industry and enterprise architects community.
TM Forum Frameworx is a suite of best practices and standards that provides the blueprint for efficient telco business operations. Its intellectual property is owned and the content managed by TM Forum. Frameworx embraces the eTOM, SID and TAM frameworks and thus enables to assess and optimize performance using a proven service-oriented approach to operations, integration and business.
TransWare AG is a member and partner of TM Forum and has designed the mapping of the Frameworx meta-model to specific UML™ profiles and BPMN™. Based on that mapping TransWare AG employs its BPM-X® Converter tool to translate current Frameworx versions and make them available to Enterprise Architect and Pro Cloud Server. Frameworx for Enterprise Architect version 14 will be presented at the TM Forum’s Digital Transformation World event in Nice 14-16 May 2018 at the TransWare AG booth #330.
“The strong built in support for standards such as BPMN, DMN and CMMN in Enterprise Architect 14 coupled with the Pro Cloud Server and Frameworx Pro Cloud Server Add-on, from TransWare AG, creates an unprecedented working and collaboration environment for best practices, and supports the rapid and ongoing digital transformation of the telecommunications industry and those many key sectors that depend on that support,” noted Tom O’Reilly, Sparx Systems Chief Operating Officer.
“Sparx Systems traditional support for industry standards development is now extended to the TM Forum Frameworx, a standard that provides a common language and basis for telecom practitioners, project managers, consultants, vendors, and systems integrators”, said Ken Harkin, Sparx Systems Business Development Manager. “We are excited about this product release with TransWare AG and we look forward to offering these stakeholders, a solution that addresses the integration, interoperability and collaboration challenges of managing the most competitive of operating environments, as they navigate through hyperflexible change.”
"Working together with the Sparx Systems team is a very productive collaboration. Starting with the availability of Frameworx version 17.5 for the Sparx Systems tools, architects and business analysts can now use the real Frameworx content with robust tools as templates and an accelerator for their custom architecture and business process modeling. The rich meta-data of the Frameworx Business Metrics combined with industry standards like UML™ and BPMN™ improves communication between stakeholders and partners." said Heinz-Juergen Scherer, CEO of TransWare AG.
A series of co-hosted product overviews and technical demonstration webinars will be scheduled over the coming months. The initial event, scheduled for late April 2018, will be hosted by Sparx Systems' Communications Manager, Scott Hebbard and TransWare AG's Vice President for Product Management, Volker Rautenberg.
TM Forum Frameworx for Enterprise Architect comes as an add-in and is available for TM Forum members. It includes TM Forum Frameworx's eTOM, TAM and partly SID contents as an Enterprise Architect EAP project file and also provides the MDG technology for Frameworx-based modeling by using the Frameworx notation where necessary and standard BPMN™ 2.0 where possible.
