Key Projects Handled in Verizon Enterprise Solutions (Verizon Business):
Project: Verizon Rapid Delivery (E2Ei –End to End Integration)

Verizon’s Rapid Delivery platform automates quoting, simplifies pricing, standardizes contracts, speeds
ordering, and delivers Verizon’s most accurate billing. Customers reap these benefits when they order
Rapid Delivery-enabled products.
Ordering on the Rapid Delivery platform requires a new contract or amendment. This process can take as
long as six to eight months due to customer internal approval requirements. As a result, many orders that
should be placed through the Rapid Delivery platform wind up going through more complex and
inefficient legacy systems.
To ensure that as many customers as possible take advantage of Verizon’s Rapid Delivery, our teams have
implemented Next Order Enablement and New Order Amendment programs.
