Telecommunications

Delivering connectivity is a dynamic and complex business.

As the telecomms industry becomes more competitive, new entrants are joining—and incumbents are crossing market and geographic boundaries. Reliability, security, pricing, customer support, and coverage footprint are competitive differentiators. A well-trained work force, fiber optic infrastructure and licensed spectrum are strategic assets.

Next generation network challenges include cutting through the hype of virtualization to realize the benefits of network function virtualization (NFV), software defined networking (SDN), self-organizing networks (SON), and the central office re-architected as a data center (CORD).

The technology promise and market opportunity of 5th generation (5G) cellular mobile will only be delivered with more optical fiber and the rise of edge computing.

At Planetworks, we understand the technology and the complex issues involved in market and regulatory dynamics. We see the internet, mobile networks and cloud computing converging to create IoT and unleash a perfect storm of applications. Our consultants have experience in a wide range of roles and projects in the industry. Whether it’s information and analysis for strategic decisions, or extra manpower to accelerate network design and service roll-out, Planetworks can help your organization improve effectiveness and efficiency.
