IT delivery for telecommunications
Network rollouts, OSS/BSS programmes and carrier migrations — where the dependency chain is long, the vendors are many, and a slipped cutover has a number attached to it.
Dependency chains are where telco programmes break
A telco programme is rarely one project. It is a network build, an OSS change, a BSS change, a field operations change and three vendors, all of which have to land in a particular order.
What goes wrong is almost never one team failing. It is the interface between two teams that nobody owned, discovered six weeks after it should have been.
- Cross-vendor dependency mapping with a single named owner per interface
- Cutover plans with rehearsed rollback, not rollback on paper
- Vendor statements of work reviewed against what the programme needs
- Field operations planned in — a network change is also a truck roll
Where we typically work
Network rollout programmes
Programme management across network build, activation and commissioning, with civil, field and systems workstreams sequenced against each other.
OSS/BSS delivery
Provisioning, assurance, mediation and billing change — where the integration surface is the real scope.
Carrier & platform migration
Defined cutover windows, tested rollback and a go/no-go process that is permitted to say no.
Multi-vendor coordination
Holding the ring between vendors who each have a contract with you and none with each other.
Assurance & monitoring
Service assurance and alarm correlation tuned so operations act on alerts rather than filter them out.
Delivery recovery
Independent review and recovery of programmes that have lost control of scope or vendor accountability.
