Your Digital Network. Your Future Roadmap to 5G Network 29 th June 2016
Agenda Successful 5G excellence: Levers for the evolution Integrated Service, Automation & Remotization (testing from offshore location) as the main Levers E2E testing in multivendor & multi-technology Mobile & Fixed network Network Labs as the perfect platform for 5G revolution Copyright 2016 Accenture All rights reserved. 2
Successful 5G Drivers for Transformation Successful 5G 2 years > 1 year One Wireless / Wireline Access with 1-IP hops (mobile edge and the RF+IP Grid ) Heterogeneous Networks (1.000.000s cells with ultrabb backhaul) FROM Product Interoperability System & Integration 1-2 years 1-2 years Smartphones (>64Gbyte), Connected Vehicles, IoT / Wearables (10 x users) Video, Entertainment, Location Searches, Health, Security ( perform ) TO Product Interoperability System & Integration Software Configuration the software model Copyright 2016 Accenture All rights reserved. 3
excellence: Levers for the evolution Transformation Levers Transformation Journey Integrated Service Several suppliers Mix of SLA s; PO s 1 End to End supplier Integrated SLA s governing e2e delivery Reduce TCO & Offshoring Mix of ramp up times & Rates 1 fixed rate / unit cost for work based on scope. Blended onshore / offshore rate Yearly efficiency gains Single Cross Country Test Factory with significant vendor and test expertise Fully Onshore Majority Of Work Executed Remotely 0% 60-70% 100% Automation & Tooling Limited Automation Factory Rationalisation and re-use of tooling & licences 30-50% of regression execution automated Access to / Reuse of regression assets Copyright 2016 Accenture All rights reserved. 4
Levers for the evolution Transformation Levers Transformation Journey Integrated Service Reduce TCO & Offshoring Service: Single partner Full suite of SLA for infrastructure and project testing activities Test Labs: Common approach, architecture Consolidate labs Connected labs. Represent production. Virtualization Efficient Power management Extendable regional factory model Customers (IT, Network) Demand Management Strategy Service Review 100% Operational Meeting Automation & Tooling Process: Single governance Common principles Best practice Vendor quality trends Network Labs (Pan European Labs) Copyright 2016 Accenture All rights reserved. 5

Network Labs as the perfect platform for 5G revolution Our Labs as the perfect cornerstone to build an open and secure ecosystem to accelerate and facilitate 5G across many industries & 3 rd parties in different domains such as Interoperability, IoT, M2M, vertical application and automotive, testing for security policies, device testing Minimise number of entities. No mandatory U-plane functions. Minimize legacy networking. Fixed and mobile convergence. Network Radio, Network and Operations & management as the 5G Design principles as depicted by the NGMN Alliance. Our E2E environments are the perfect platform to help Network Service Providers and multiple industries to develop their products in a full end-to-end mobile and fixed mesh. Leverage spectrum and enable cost-efficient dense deployments. Integrated multiple deployments. Shared use of infrastructure. Radio Operations & Management Simplify Operations though automation and monitoring. Collaborative management and cloud orchestration. Copyright 2016 Accenture All rights reserved. 9
