Publication number: 20220051161Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, embodiments include receiving a first trouble ticket reporting a first service outage of a communication network and a second trouble ticket reporting a second service outage of the communication network. Further embodiments can include determining a first customer impact according to the first service outage and determining a second customer impact according to the second service outage. The first customer impact is determined by a degradation of quality metrics, a site priority, and a number of complaints due to each service outage. Additional embodiments can include identifying that the second customer impact is higher than the first customer impact. Also, embodiments can include prioritizing a resolution of the second trouble ticket over the first trouble ticket according to the second customer impact being higher than the first customer impact. Other embodiments are disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 28, 2021Publication date: February 17, 2022Applicants: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P., AT&T Mobility II LLCInventors: He Yan, Lynn Lopez, Jason Pipkin, Kathryn Childs, Chichi Boderoux, Carla Sykes, Kevin Wilkins, Robert Samson, Sarat Puthenpura, Zihui Ge
