Build your interconnect business

How will you manage the wholesale industry’s move towards an even swifter and more complex online market? Yesterday’s sequential business process of buying, routing, pricing, and selling won’t do. It does not provide sufficient control when many changes take place in all parts of the process, at the same time.

Ascade’s advanced desks offer the routing and trading data you need to stay in control. All information is presented in a single window – dynamically populated while working. The layout can be adapted to your specific requirements and needs, making work both easy and effective. Changes in one part of the process are automatically updated everywhere else in real time. No separate systems or even other windows to open.

The Routing Desk empowers you as routing manager. You can define any set of quality and supplier parameters in multiple routing algorithms. The routing engine guarantees optimal network usage and the lowest global termination cost, at a given quality level. It is based on a global linear programming routing algorithm, which is completely transparent. Not only do you see the result, but also how it was achieved, for continuous refinement of the optimisation parameters.

The Trading Desk presents you as a trader with routing information critical to boosting profitability: e.g. traffic, quality, pricing, capacity and margin data. You see the true margin per destination, carrier and product. Moreover, the buying and selling as well as all relevant operational data are displayed on one screen. It gives you a complete overview to facilitate more complex deals.
