Abstract
A system for assembling and delivering a communications service or product is described which is flexible to accommodate the rapid introduction of new product/service offerings on a frequent basis. The method involves receiving data relating to a number of communication service components and creating and storing a data structure for each communication service component. Data is also received relating to a communication service, the data identifying at least one of the communication service components and a data structure for the communications service is created and stored. In response to receiving an input requesting provisioning of the communications service, an end-to-end process flow for delivering the communications service is automatically created based on the data structure for the communications service and the data structure for the identified communication service components.
