This invention uses a computer program to mine preexisting hardware equipment configuration data located in a variety of preexisting source hardware equipment configuration databases. The computer program either creates a new hardware equipment configuration database from parts of existing hardware equipment configuration databases or modifies an existing hardware equipment configuration database. The computer program replaces the current system's reliance upon manual data entry by data engineers to configure the operation of a new telecommunication switch or replace the software in a telecommunication switch that was damaged or requires a new hardware equipment configuration data configuration. This invention provides accurate and timely customer information, significantly decreases the time interval for engineering a new database, decreases the research and data entry time, decreases the interval for lab planning and project management, improves hardware equipment configuration database integrity, provides a cleaner hardware equipment configuration database, reuses existing hardware equipment configuration data eliminating double data entry, reuses some existing software code, and uses preexisting office data administration tools and provides a platform for future growth and expandability. By accomplishing these tasks, the telecommunication switch manufacturer or telecommunication switch operator saves time, money and decreases time-to-market product and service schedules.
