Off the shelf stuff?  There are lots of options, but it seems like the general 
opinion of the IT groups I've worked with is that it's just as much work to 
customize and integrate them as it is to write from scratch so we tend to get 
further way from COTS all the time.

You should take a look at Metasolv (now part of Oracle, I believe).  We used it 
in one of our P&L regions for some regional products for over a decade and I 
was always impressed by how quickly they could roll out new workflows and 
products in it since much of the customization work could be done by a business 
process architect rather than having to be coded by a developer.

We've also used Granite, which is from Telcordia, but I don't have enough 
direct or indirect experience to have an opinion on whether or not it's any 
good.

Resurrecting this thread. Anyone?
What software solution do people use for inventory management for things like 
riser/conduit drawdown, fiber inventory, physical topology store, CLR/DLR, 
x-connect, contracts, port inventory, etc.
Any experiences in integrating workflow into those packages for work orders, 
modeling, drawdown levels, etc.
