The challenge
BUT

50 3G pioneering
existing deployments
How do we help
the next 150 more conservative
operators of all sizes roll out their own
networks in 2015?

Network rollout and evolution challenges
Business impact
More site visits (truck rolls)
Can’t meet project volumes
Lost accountability
Higher project costs
Project delays
Impaired quality

Small Cell Rollout Case Study
Major US-NA Converged CSP
y Operational in circa 6 months y 2,000+ projects running parallel y 100+ users in parallel y Significant reduction in effort y Deployment time accelerated
y Major saving for automotive efficiencies expected over 5 years
y Agility & low TCO enabling ongoing process improvements
Results Achieved
Business Drivers
● Small cell process needed to scale x10 & x3 times faster
● 35% manual steps ● Lack of partner coordination on
joint project plan ● Scattered processes & tools
● High TCO & lack of agility ● High cost of fallout, delays,
errors & re-work ● High data inaccuracy ● Simple change in process,
model or interface impacts many systems
Macro rollout process does not scale for high volume small cells
Delivering real business value…
