Telecom AI and Workflow Governance RFP Checklist

Account changes are instant, and so is the fraud. SIM changes, port-outs, ownership transfers and line separations run through the store, the app and the contact center, each with its own checks, and nothing proves which ones ran. MVNOs carry the same FCC obligations as top carriers with far smaller teams.

Regulations the platformmust enforce.

  • FCC SIM swap and port-out rules
  • CPNI
  • the Safe Connections Act
  • TCPA
  • PCI DSS
  • NPAC porting requirements
  • state consumer protection rules
