In the fiber network market, the winner takes all. That’s why service providers -from the largest to the local - come to 3-GIS to transform the way they do business. In this new business framework, engineering vendors use field data to plan, design, and construct a fiber network, then deliver project data in a model and format that can seamlessly be used with business operations systems.
A method that can scale to meet strategic business objectives
Readiness to market new services at the time of completion
Designs generated in an end-to-end collaborative system
Physical network data integrated with other operational systems
Planning and construction data used to manage the physical network
Best practices for overcoming vendor reluctance to change
This webinar presents the business process where one of the largest service providers in the US not only created a digital model of their fiber network but also collaborated with their engineering and construction vendors to update the operational database with as-built data in real time. The discussion reviews an at-scale project where this business model transformed the traditional engineering and construction processes with 20 vendors and delivered over 40,230 fibre kilometers in 8 months. Gain perspective of the business process changes needed to break data silos between external and internal resources and create a framework for faster activation and high data accuracy of outside plant assets.
As CSPs turn their focus to breakdown data silos that create inefficiencies and disrupts managerial visibility, they are looking to vendors to take on more of a partner role than simply a supplier. CSPs can get the best solution when they create an environment where multiple vendors collaborate to bring their best-of-breed products to address a single mutual business goal, speed-to-revenue. In this case, the unified goal of planning, designing, and constructing a fiber network so that it is ready for service activation faster than each vendor working independently.
