A technique for providing calling party definition and control of the contact information and sequencing used to reach a particular called party. The calling party specifies a set of communications devices along with their respective contact numbers for use in contacting a particular called party. Thereafter, for example, a telecommunications service provider will attempt to locate the called party in accordance with the designated set of devices and respective contact numbers so designated by the calling party. Advantageously, the technique provides a significant amount of increased control to the calling party in defining and controlling the sequence in which attempts are made to reach a particular called party.
