Administrative Operating Company Number (AOCN)

A four character numeric or alphanumeric that identifies the administrator of one (1) or more data records contained in the iconectiv® BIRRDS. If a Service Provider (SP) performs its own record administration, the Operating Company Number (OCN) value is most often the same value as an OCN Assigned to that company based on a National Exchange Carrier Association (NECA) Assigned Company Code. If an SP chooses not to use one of its OCNs as an AOCN, or if data is administered by a non-SP third party, Telecom Routing Administration (TRA) assigns a unique OCN (formatted differently than Company Codes) as an AOCN value.
