Profitability-based routing calculation ensures that carriers resulting in overall net profit are placed along the routing path. Overall Profit/Loss across multiple segments for a route is computed using the live selling prices and latest carrier costs.
Profitability-based routing is a more complex optimization process than LCR, in that it also takes routing external variable factors into account. CSPs need to identify cost effective routing for call and data session traffic to attain the best profit margin for the company, based on the cost parameters for each service and corresponding wholesale agreements. Profitability-based routing also needs to take into account regulatory specifications and service level agreements (SLAs). In essence Profitability-based routing ensures that only profitable carriers are placed along the routing path. Overall Profit/Loss across multiple segments for a route is computed using the live selling prices and latest carrier costs.
