Telecommunications Service Priority The Telecommunications Service Priority (TSP) system is a regulatory, administrative, and operational system authorizing and providing for priority treatment of National Security and Emergency Preparedness Telecommunications (NS/EP) services. As such, it establishes the framework for telecommunication service vendors to initiate, restore, or otherwise act on a priority basis to ensure effective NS/EP telecommunication services. The TSP system allows the assignment of priority levels to any NS/EP service. The TSP system has been developed, through a joint effort, by the Federal Government and the Telecommunications industry through the National Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee (NSTAC) TSP task force. TSP may be applied to the provisioning and/or restoration of any service for which such priority treatment is possible. Qualifying service will be authorized for TSP treatment by the Office of Priority Telecommunications (OPT) located in the National Communications System (NCS). Provisioning - means the act of supplying telecommunications service to a user, including all associated transmission, wiring and equipment. As used herein, "provisioning" and "initiation" are synonymous and include altering the state of an existing priority service or capability. All reasonable efforts must be made by AT&T to provide services assigned provisioning priority by the due date requested. Restoration - means the repair or returning to service of one or more telecommunication services that have experienced a service outage or are unusable for any reason, including a damaged or impaired by patching, rerouting, substitution of component parts or pathways, and other means, as determined necessary by a service vendor. All reasonable efforts must be made to provide services assigned restoration priority by the due date requested. Priority Level - means the level assigned to an NS/EP telecommunication service specifying the order in which provisioning or restoration of the service is to occur relative to other NS/EP and/or non-NS/EP telecommunication services. Priority levels authorized within the TSP system are designated (highest to lowest) "E" Emergency, "1", "2", "3", "4", and "5" for provisioning and "1", "2", "3", "4" and "5" for restoration. TSP is available on all access and transport circuits State agencies can contact the NCS at xxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx. to gain sponsorship.
