Large national telecommunications operator

Period
2017-07 — 2019-07

Context

Large national telecommunications operator generated data of rare scale and granularity through its core services and saw the opportunity to turn it into internal decision-support tools and commercial products — but that required a coherent infrastructure and operating model beyond ad-hoc analytics.

Approach

Chose a platform approach over isolated per-use-case solutions, structuring the future platform across business architecture, information concepts, and a data layer — explicitly connecting data suppliers, processing responsibilities, and consumption patterns, with a practical standardize-early roadmap.

Outcome

Delivered the architecture for a Data Management Platform that turns telecom data into governed products, giving the organization a repeatable way to onboard data and pursue multiple data-based revenue streams.

  • Architectural package for a DMP designed and handed over for implementation.
  • Foundation established for several data products: targeted advertising, audience analytics, B2B data services.
  • Long-term basis created for monetizing telecom-data insights.

Key result

Designed a three-layer DMP architecture that gives the organization a repeatable way to onboard data and turn it into governed products without re-inventing definitions for each use case.
