There's a good chance that the acquisition of telecom network assurance and optimization specialist MYCOM OSI by private equity firm Inflexion, announced Wednesday, might have escaped the attention of many in the industry. (See MYCOM OSI Acquired by Inflexion .)
But it's worth noting for a couple of reasons.

The annual GSMA Mobile Economy Europe paints a mixed picture for CSPs, with continuing consolidation helping to stabilize the competitive landscape, but saturation in B2C pointing to slow growth in traditional revenue streams. The silver lining however, is a faster than expected adoption of 5G and a determined march into new verticals, showing many green shoots of growth.

MYCOM OSI: Ringing the changes in OSS
2018 is proving a busy year for MYCOM OSI, as the global CSP community wakes up to the instrumental role cloud-based service quality assurance can play in realising autonomic networks.
The more ambitious CSPs’ plans, the more critical it is that they can support the QoE with a light and eventually no operational touch – tracking everything in one place, and leaning on the latest technology to enable predictive analytics, automation and self-learning.
In this exclusive interview with Mobile Europe and European Communications, Payam Taaghol, MYCOM OSI’s CEO, sets out his vision and describes the transformations his company has already made possible.

5G networks are taking their first steps out of trials and labs into reality with innovative use cases demonstrated during the winter Olympics in South Korea early in 2018. Now the “how” of deploying dynamic, self-orchestrating networks has been explored and successfully demonstrated in recent TM Forum proof of concept Catalysts focused around providing new service provision and connectivity for the Tour de France cycle race, to demonstrate the real world benefits and value of 5G and new technologies available.

Back in 2014 the regulatory winds were favorable in European telecoms with consolidation in both the German and Austrian markets taking the number of mobile network operators from four to three. "Market repair" was the buzzword of the day and operators were keen to see if they could achieve similar consolidation in other countries. In the UK, there were four MNOs: EE (itself a merger of Orange and T-Mobile's UK arms), O2 (part of the Telefonica Group, Vodafone and Three UK (part of Asian conglomerate CK Hutchison). With EE being snapped up by BT, Three made an audacious offer for O2 that would have created the largest mobile operator in the UK with over 40% share of mobile subscribers and a strong portfolio of spectrum. However, after a year of deliberations, in May 2016 the deal was blocked by the EU commission on competition grounds, leaving Three UK in a quandary.

CSPs need to simplify and rationalize their service assurance systems across all networks: mobile and fixed, enterprise and IT/data center, so that they can be maintained at peak performance and maximize the utilization of the network resources. As a consequence of evolving digitalization, there is a great need to build operation centers that are predictive, customer-centric, analytics-driven and highly automated to help CSPs achieve speed and massive opex savings.

Consolidation is not a buzz word. It is a biz word. This is because network consolidation in a telecom operator network cuts down costs (operational costs and infrastructure costs). Consolidation of OSS systems also reduces the operator costs tremendously. If you add automation to it, the results are remarkable. Not only does efficiency increase, but also the quality and speed. This is because you remove elements of human error, inefficient repetition, and decrease time for delivery of new services.

Complexity of telecom operators' business models, offers, networks and systems has never been higher. The result of this increased complexity is higher costs and reduced operational margins, lengthy time to market and degraded customer experience. The reasons for the surge of complexity is partly rooted in the nature of the mobile industry and partly related to current business trends.
