Huawei launches OSS-as-a-Service for Communications Service Providers
Shenzhen, China, September 11, 2015 – Huawei today launched its new service-driven offering – OSS-as-a-Service. OSS-as-a-Service is designed to maximize return-on-investment and operation efficiency, increase service agility and unleash the full value of Operation Support System (OSS) for Communications Service Providers (CSPs).
This OSS-as-a-Service has already been offered to large telecom groups around the world. One leading telecom group with more than 20 subnets has selected the OSS-as-a-Service in Service & Network Performance for all subnets across its Middle East and Africa markets. In this As-a-Service offer, Huawei has transformed the customer’s legacy systems into a centralized private OSS cloud managed by Huawei along with comprehensive global practices and use cases. OSS-as-a-service helps this customer improve efficiency and service quality, and reduce capital and operations expenditure while driving a very fast transformation – all within 12 months.
“Huawei’s OSS-as-a-service not only helps CSPs to realize immediate benefits of operational efficiency and CAPEX/OPEX reduction, but also provides a strong foundation for CSPs to stay competitive and relevant in the digital economy.” said Anil Rao, Senior Analyst at communications industry research group Analysis Mason.
OSS-as-a-Service is a mix of business & delivery models for OSS capabilities in a Multi-Year Service Relationship. CSPs can find OSS-as-a-Service appealing because:
1. It is Service-Driven with Use Cases for the best value-aligned rather than function-aligned.
2. It adapts centralized operation and governance for the best synergy potential rather than isolated operations
3. It comes with global practices and the operations processes pre-loaded with the Software
4. It aligns with the existing network architecture including hardware, software (including 3rd party software) to reduce the IT and OPEX pressure on platform maintenance
Creating a distinct customer experience is a critical goal for CSPs, where success hinges on their ability to improve network performance quality, enlist the best partners and deliver on customer satisfaction. As part of the next generation OSS, OSS-as-a-Service transforms the Infrastructure Enabling System (IES), remove barriers to adoption with agile service provisioning and operations, especially in light of the need to ensure service quality and end-to-end security for Digitalization readiness.
