OPERATING THE NETWORK

The objectives at the centre of the operational capabilities play an integral part to the performance, quality and safe operation of the nbn® broadband access network


nbn has built a self-serving, business and operational support environment that aims to provide phone or internet providers with everything they need to support the services for their customers. Some of the functions of this environment include; transparent and automated systems for ordering, provisioning and billing, equal access for providers regardless of size, and the ability to cope with high transaction volumes and variable peaks.

Our broad operations provide our phone and internet providers with a comprehensive program for interoperability, fulfilling orders for services, assuring network performance and integrity, as well as supplying comprehensive health, safety and environmental programs.
