Abstract
A mobile network operator (MNO) may receive a request to provide an embedded Subscriber Identity Module (eSIM) profile to an embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card (eUICC) of a user device. The user device is configured to receive telecommunication services from the MNO. Thus, if it is determined that a particular remote SIM provisioning (RSP) platform of a plurality of RSP platforms is able to provide the eSIM profile, the particular RSP platform is directed to provision the eUICC of the user device with the eSIM profile. However, if a condition that affects an ability of the particular RSP platform to provide the eSIM profile is detected, an alternative RSP platform may be directed to provide the eUICC of the user device with the eSIM profile.
