Résumé : |
Currently, a trend of emerging market “regional champion” telecommunications network operators to spread operations across multiple countries can be observed. Consolidation of such operations becomes mission-critical in order to provide consistently high service levels in a cost-efficient manner. This leads to an increased demand for innovative, cross-country delivery platforms for network operations. Apart from the obvious technical issues, also strategic and economic aspects need to be taken into account when determining the optimal, resource-sharing re-design of network operations processes. Both in-house and outsourcing alternatives should be included in such an evaluation. This paper presents the technical approaches and the strategic and economic impacts of regionalization, centralization and outsourcing of mobile network operations processes. It introduces a quantitative model for assessing economic impacts using both a top-down and a bottom-up approach, applied to a real-world case of a MEA cross-country operator. |
