The 3G environment requires more complex service delivery mechanisms and is no longer simply an internal matter for a single operator but a capability that is achieved by linking together features across multiple service providers and operators. Subscription Management (SuM) is a feature that permits Service Providers, Value Added Service Providers, and Mobile Operators to provision services for a specific subscriber. The feature is necessary to allow service providers and operators to provision, control, monitor and bill the configuration of services that they offer to their subscribers.
