TM Forum Interface Program
IPDR Joins the TM Forum Interface Program
The TM Forum Interface Program was launched in April 2008 as the entity responsible for all normative interface work within the TM Forum.

Under the TM Forum Interface Program, all interface development efforts are unified. That includes OSS/J (the multi-technology APIs that deliver on NGOSS design guidelines); mTOP (network and service management from transport); IPDR (the interfaces used for usage data management and accounting); and CO~OP (implementation of a common architecture for mobile network management.) Each leverages each other’s development resources to create a common roadmap and architectural framework.

Working Groups
TM Forum is a member-driven organization. Member companies contribute the knowledge, energy, and brainpower to identify requirements, define technical standards, and prove interoperability of working code.

Work is distributed amongst several working groups, each with its own mission and leadership. Overlapping membership of working groups ensures adequate cross-propagation of knowledge.
