Each region has over 60,000 dial codes. These codes need to be analyzed to determine a single dial code list for VzB. Candidates will be required to analyze and research codes for their validity. Once code analysis (phase 1) is complete the project intends to ensure that all downstream IT systems are updated with these new dial codes.
