As Open Access and wholesale fiber models take off, many operators are hitting the same wall: their legacy BSS/OSS stacks weren’t built for multi-ISP, multi-vendor, or M&A-heavy environments.
You may be:
In all these cases, you need a neutral orchestration layer that unifies operations, automation, and visibility across the entire ecosystem.
That’s why we built COS Wholesale Engine!
COS Wholesale Engine is an API-first Open Access Network Orchestrator for operators who want to:
It becomes your normalization layer: infrastructure in, ISPs and systems out — all aligned on one operational model.
1. Single Source of Truth for Service Locations
The platform manages areas, addresses, service locations, and deliverability rules. ISP partners rely on this as the canonical reference when selling, provisioning, and supporting subscribers.
2. Zero-Touch Provisioning Across Multiple Vendors
Through EMS/NMS integrations, COS Wholesale Engine supports multi-vendor and multi-technology networks. You can:
3. Shared Disruption & Ticketing Flows
Disruptions and tickets are designed to enable cross-organizational collaboration between the network operator and one or more ISPs. Everyone sees status, ownership, and next actions across organizational boundaries.
4. Standards-Oriented APIs for ISPs’ BSS/OSS
All data and logic are exposed in a standards-oriented REST API layer, so ISPs can plug in their own:
Billing systems
CRMs
Support and NOC tools
Extending or adapting the APIs requires minimal effort, making them suitable for both large and smaller ISPs.
5. Wholesale Billing That Just Works
Wholesale charges are calculated from live order activations and aggregated per ISP every month. That means:
No “free riders”
No guesswork or manual reconciliation
A clear, auditable basis for every invoice
Open Access / Wholesale operators with fiber or fixed wireless infrastructure
ISPs with M&A strategies or multiple brands that need a unifying operational layer
Operators of multi-technology/vendor networks who want to standardize processes without standardizing hardware
Separation of Infrastructure and Customer Operations
Traditional telco stacks are vertically integrated. COS Wholesale Engine decouples infrastructure from customer-facing processes while keeping them tightly synchronized through APIs. That gives you a level of flexibility that’s hard to achieve with legacy systems.
Open Access / Wholesale Ready
Multiple ISPs can be invited to operate on the same infrastructure with full visibility and automation. This is a powerful lever for boosting take-rates in new builds and revitalizing stagnating markets with a multi-brand approach.
Multiple brands can co-exist without data clashes or sync issues
Acquired ISPs can keep their customer-facing tech stack while you unify operations centrally
You can roll out multiple brands into any market to maximize take-rates
Because most systems can remain intact, you can:
Integrate acquired networks faster and cheaper
Use COS Wholesale Engine as the bridge layer
Consolidate BSS/OSS stacks only when (and if) it makes sense
No More Wholesale Billing Disputes
Billing is derived from actual activations and live network status — creating clear, auditable invoicing that both operators and ISPs can trust.
COS Business Engine includes the customer portal and marketplace for direct subscriber self-service, plus rich UIs for ISPs. It has extensive REST APIs but is not aligned to TM Forum standards.
COS Wholesale Engine removes consumer UIs and goes API-first, based on global standards, while keeping the same operational backbone (provisioning, tickets, billing, etc.). This makes it particularly attractive for large Service Providers operating across several wholesale networks.
