Be SPECific

Did you know there is a code on the ASR that is used to designate the specific product and/or service to be provisioned? Service and Product Enhancement Code (SPEC Code) is a standard code developed by Telcordia Technologies for the identification and ordering of tariffed products and services. The structure is standard across all vendors and is constructed of 5-7 alphanumeric characters. The first three characters typically represent the base product and last four characters specify the options. Vendors should have a listing of SPEC codes and their descriptions. This information can be very helpful in determining whether the rate elements on a particular circuit are applicable and billing correctly. Note: the billed SPEC code can also be found in the FID data on the CSR; however, it should be verified to ensure that it is the same as what was ordered on the ASR.
