What is the difference between TSP Restoral and TSP Provisioning?
TSP restoral is like an insurance policy for your existing circuits (both voice and data), while TSP provisioning is for new circuits. For TSP restoral, after determining which circuits are critical to your organization, you request TSP Authorization Codes for each one. Upon receipt of these codes, you give them to your service provider so that they have everything in place should an emergency require the restoral of your circuits. TSP provisioning is for when you need a new circuit installed sooner than your service provider would be able to meet using normal business procedures. When this happens, contact the TSP Program Office to make your request. Note that TSP provisioning is not intended to compensate for inadequate planning.
