We design mobile networks with sustainable business value

Omnitele has been supporting leading operators for over 30 years in extracting the maximum value from their mobile network assets and investments. We have proven experience in driving revenue and customer experience with network design, planning and optimisation, as well as in reducing network operating costs and making the most of the network investments. 

Omnitele is also your trusted partner in strategic considerations such as spectrum acquisition, vendor management, technical due diligence, or 5G transformation, in addition to which some operators have outsourced their network planning and design to Omnitele. 

What unites all of the above, is Omnitele’s overarching focus in making you successful.

The network remains a key lever for revenue enhancement for operators. Understanding how and where to have a better network than the competition, or driving ARPU and usage while reducing churn based on network design and QoS targets are examples of the type of assignments through which Omnitele supports the operators.

A universal challenge faced by operators is the decoupling of data usage growth from revenue growth. This, in turn, is putting increasing pressure on network operating costs, as well as in ensuring the maximum value from the network investments.

Omnitele has supported many operators with their operating cost reduction programmes, from merged or joint networks to active spectrum management to becoming an outsourcing partner. Similarly, for future investments, Omnitele has developed a methodology that enables operators to compare different investment options, and provide the optimal solution given the spectrum assets, QoS targets, and budget available.

The Network remains the single most important touchpoint for customers, directly driving customer experience, satisfaction and loyalty. Omnitele has extensive experience in supporting operators in reaching the desired customer experience – sometimes even without additional investments – as well as in predicting future customer experience bottlenecks and addressing them proactively even before the problems materialise.

As the single biggest cost driver, network and network strategy are inherently linked to the company strategy. For example, evaluating 5G licenses, selecting a network vendor, or building a spectrum strategy dictate the future direction of the company. Omnitele can support operators with these strategic considerations, bringing experience from 1000+ projects and 100+ countries to the decision making.

Mobile communication has proven to drive economic value of the country with improvements not only in connectivity, but also in productivity and efficiency. Omnitele has supported multiple regulators in their quest to unlock this value, from spectrum related matters to monitoring to introduction of new technologies and services.

Spectrum remains one of the most valuable national assets, and careful management and utilisation are of utmost importance. Omnitele  can support regulators for example on techno-economic studies for introduction of spectrum and/or technologies (e.g. 5G in 700 MHz, 3.5 GHz, 26 GHz), evaluation of spectrum scenarios, including valuation of spectrum bands, or on modelling of different spectrum deployment scenarios, including traffic growth models and development of Quality of Service levels.

Omnitele provides independent operator performance benchmarks, as well as verification of spectrum license conditions (including coverage, Quality of Service, spectrum usage, data throughputs, and more). Omnitele also supports regulators in defining the industry standards for the metrics of network quality measurements and benchmarks.

Omnitele can support the regulators with international industry and technology experience on developing policies for new technologies. This can include development of cost models for new service deployment, or scenario investment analysis. Current, often requested topics include 5G investment analysis and network sharing scenario modelling.

Leading network vendors use Omnitele’s services for independent verification and expertise on network benchmarking and design, planning, and optimisation. This enables the vendors to focus on their core business, whilst not having to worry on the other activities thanks to trustworthy partner.

Omnitele has over 30 years of experience in network benchmarking and field measurements, and has expertise on all of the latest technologies including 5G. The benchmarking services may include cluster and site verification, and cover both indoor and outdoor measurements. Moreover, the benchmarking measurements may be complemented with crowdsourced data for even more detailed analysis.

Omnitele can support network vendors on all their design, planning, and optimizsation related needs. This may include from high-level or low-level network design, to outsourcing mobile network design, planning and optimisation operations based on SLAs to Omnitele. Operators can leverage Omnitele’s vast experience and expert resources in project management, in addition to which the support may include network capacity management, new features introduction, or network swaps and/or network sharing. What unites all of the above, is the ability for the vendor to trust in Omnitele. We are a safe pair of hands.

In addition to the mobile operators, regulators, and network vendors, Omnitele supports different user organisations on their radio network related needs. Many companies and organisations in this diverse group use radio networks as an enabler: you might be the army, police, rail operator, IoT provider, or perhaps a company utilising a mobile network, which would benefit from the support of a world-leading network design company. The exact scope will be tailored for each assignment, but the principle remains the same: Omnitele will ensure the user organisation can extract the maximum value out of the assets and/or investments.

• Mobile communication strategy definition for user organisation (e.g. critical communication, public transport, healthcare, Industry, utilities)
• Cost and operational model analysis for user organisation to aid the decision on own private networks, public operator networks, or hybrid solutions
• Definition and verification of SLAs between user organisation and mobile network operators that provide connectivity to the user organisation’s operational processes
• Benchmark of mobile operator performance (coverage, quality) as part of tender processes for a large organisation, including implementation of technical ranking procedures
