Automating Network Provisioning for Faster Service Delivery
The Challenge: Slow and Complex Provisioning
In the rapidly evolving telecom landscape, service activation speed and accuracy have become critical to customer satisfaction and competitive advantage. However, the organization’s front-line provisioning processes were heavily dependent on manual operations, fragmented systems, and repetitive validations. This not only slowed down delivery but also created significant operational bottlenecks across OSS/BSS ecosystems.
Key Pain Points
-
Fragmented Provisioning Processes: Service provisioning was handled manually across multiple OSS/BSS systems, leading to inefficiencies, redundant data entry, and a lack of visibility across workflows.
-
High Error Rates: Manual inputs and disconnected systems often resulted in activation failures, mismatched configurations, and frequent rework.
-
Delayed Service Delivery: Standard broadband activations required 5–10 days, while enterprise service provisioning stretched to multiple weeks, impacting customer onboarding timelines.
-
Customer Dissatisfaction: Errors and delays directly affected the customer experience, leading to lost revenue opportunities and weakened brand trust.
-
Operational Inefficiencies: Repeated interventions, escalations, and manual follow-ups increased operational costs and reduced workforce productivity.
-
Competitive Pressure: As competitors adopted faster, more automated provisioning models, speed of activation became a defining differentiator, pressing the need for transformation.
The Solution: AI-Driven Network Provisioning Automation
To address these challenges, Amantra implemented end-to-end intelligent automation for service provisioning across mobile, broadband, and enterprise services seamlessly integrating with the client’s CRM, OSS, and BSS layers. The solution transformed a fragmented, error-prone process into a unified, self-governing provisioning ecosystem.
Key Solution Components
-
Automated Order-to-Activation Workflows:
Fully automated workflows connected CRM, OSS, and BSS systems — orchestrating order validation, resource allocation, and activation without manual intervention. -
Intelligent Validation Checks:
Pre-provisioning AI checks ensured order accuracy, data completeness, and dependency verification, minimizing activation errors. -
AI-Based Resource Allocation:
Smart algorithms dynamically allocated bandwidth, IP addresses, and network ports, optimizing resource utilization across regions. -
Self-Healing Mechanisms:
Automated scripts continuously monitored provisioning jobs, detecting and resolving failures in real time — reducing downtime and escalations. -
Proactive Customer Notifications:
Automated alerts kept customers informed at every stage of the provisioning lifecycle, improving transparency and experience.
The Results: Speed, Accuracy, and Scalability
- 70% faster service activation (days reduced to hours).
- 90% success rate on first-time provisioning.
- 40% OPEX savings by eliminating manual interventions.
- Higher customer satisfaction with faster onboarding.
- Scalable infrastructure that supported rapid 5G and fiber rollout.
