Requirementsv3 - CL
4/4
17 Backend process for interacting with
Aggregator / Content Provider needs to be
streamlined and administratively efficient
Y
18 The carriers will define a tolerance and
engagement policy that the monitoring
company will follow when dealing with the
aggregator and content provider
breaches. This will be fine-tuned during an
initial 3 month period.
19 Vendor to make available to CPs a pre-verification component
to allow CPs to
engage the vendor to audit advertising,
SMS or WAP flows before launch. The
charge for this would be for time and
materials only and would be charged to
the CP directly. By using this service, the
audited material would not be excluded
from standard BAU audits.
Aegis has established processes and systems in place for the
pre-verification ofadvertising, SMS or WAP prior to launch. The
Aegis Program Activation Tool (PACT)
allows for a systematic approach to testing and reporting for
verification of these
mobile programs and ads. Verification standards are implemented
in the PACT
workflow based on Carrier and industry guidelines. These rules
can be expeditiously
updated to reflect the changing market conditions and
requirements. The PACT tool
is set up to accommodate the multiple, and ever changing, matrix
of handsets that
carriers offer to their user base. The PACT can also be used by
the Carrier to
manage their own testing resources if desired.
