Challenge: Independent analysis for network modernization and value-for-money optimization
TelOne aims to become a first-class operator by leveraging the latest technologies and launching modern services. In 2015, TelOne selected an equipment supplier to modernize its network. However, it wanted an independent review of the proposal to ensure it fully met its current needs, aligned with its long-term strategy, and offered the best value for money.
Methodology: Strategic evaluation, technical optimization, and supplier negotiation
We began by analyzing TelOne’s business strategy, then defined the corresponding network strategy. This led us to modify and enhance the technical requirements sent to the supplier. Leveraging our network expertise, market price knowledge, and Orange best practices, we compared and challenged the proposed designs, equipment quantities, and vendor pricing. We ensured that the technical choices, operational model, processes, and maintenance contract supported TelOne’s ambitions, delivered the capacity needed for long-term service quality, and avoided hidden costs.
Result: Savings, a robust network, and readiness to launch new services
TelOne gained 15% of the initial contract value, a more robust and sustainable network, and a financially and operationally solid contract. With a simplified network design featuring fewer but better-sized equipment, TelOne will also achieve significant OPEX savings. Today, TelOne is ready to launch new revenue-generating services such as ADSL and IPTV, confident in its network’s ability to support these innovative services, handle increased traffic, and deliver the required quality of service to satisfy its customers.
