ACCESS MODELING IN A COMMUNICATION DOMAIN
First Claim
1. A system that facilitates efficient processing of orders for access services, comprising:
- An address validation engine that determines and validates a geographic location associated with a consumer that requests an access service based at least in part received subset of information associated with the consumer, the validated geographic location is determined to a sub-address level, and the subset of information comprises at least a portion of the geographic location associated with the consumer; and
an access management component that automatically and dynamically determines a cost of the access service and an access provider that provides the access service based at least in part on predefined access criteria.

Abstract
System(s) and method(s) that facilitate efficient and automated processing of orders for access services are presented. An address validation engine evaluates received information that identifies at least part of a geographical location of a consumer ordering an access service, and accesses additional information to facilitate determining and validating the geographical location to a fine level of granularity. An access management component can facilitate automatically determining an available access provider(s) based on the validated geographical location. The access management component employs a rule engine to facilitate automatically and dynamically determining cost of the access service and selecting an access provider based on predefined rules in accordance with predefined access criteria. Electronic bonding is employed to facilitate automatic communication of information between the access provider and an entity processing the order to facilitate processing the order, provisioning the access service, and billing the consumer.

16. A method that facilitates processing an order for an access service associated with a consumer, comprising:
-
validating a geographic location associated with the consumer to a specified level of granularity based at least in part on received information comprising geographical information that at least partially identifies the geographic location; and automatically and dynamically determining cost of the access service and an access provider that will provide the access service to the consumer at the validated geographic location based at least in part on the validated geographic location and predefined access criteria. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29)

30. A computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, cause a computer to perform the following acts:
-
validating a geographic location associated with a consumer to a specified level of granularity based at least in part on received information comprising geographical information that at least partially identifies the geographic location; and automatically determining cost of an access service and an access provider that will provide the access service to the consumer at the validated geographic location, based at least in part on the validated geographic location and predefined access criteria, to facilitate processing an order for the access service associated with the consumer and provisioning of the access service.

31. An apparatus comprising:
-
means for validating a geographic location associated with a consumer to a specified level of granularity based at least in part on received information comprising geographical information that at least partially identifies the geographic location; means for automatically and dynamically determining cost of an access service and selecting an access provider that will provide the access service to the consumer at the validated geographic location, based at least in part on the validated geographic location and predefined access criteria, to facilitate processing an order for the access service associated with the consumer and provisioning of the access service.
