Abstract
Overview
This report boldly tells exactly how to do transformation planning. It is
written by an author who has been involved in (often as a leader, but also as
a follower) many transformation projects in several different venues. He has
also been deeply involved in all phases of telephony planning for over 40
years. This report is devoted to exploring the planning process devoted to
telecommunications business transformation. The techniques and steps described
herein will guide the firm in the process, but the actual work must be done on
an individual basis. In general, business transformation planning has many
outputs, and influences many (maybe all) processes in a business, but in
telecommunications, business transformation planning must also involve, as one
of its outputs, the development of a next-generation network, since the nature
of the future network must reflect the new business plan.
Unlike in the past, the development of these future networks is based on
customers' needs and business vision, as opposed to technological
possibilities and cost efficiencies. These two ingredients (customers' needs
and business vision), along with an understanding of competitors' positions,
are the basis of planning for future networks today.
Report Features
We will review the techniques for transformation planning and some of the
drivers in today' s market for that planning activity.
This development of techniques will include:
- The description of the planning environment - A framework that outlines
the steps in the planning process;
- The general forecast for the U.S. economy and particularly the U.S. telcos;
- The competitive market in the U.S. facing today' s telecommunications
company, including discussions of major factors in the changing market such as
advanced access architectures, super-competitors, and overbuild;
- A detailed approach to business transformation planning - a “how
to”
- A major section will describe the process of “Vision Planning”
- a technique for transformation planning;
- A survey of what major players are doing in business transformation
planning;
- Interviews with some of the top thinkers in the telecommunications
business today.
The history of the networking business is largely based on network evolution
steps that were determined by the geniuses at Bell Labs. Another group of
geniuses at the same institution determined end-user (station apparatus)
capabilities. It has been said that there have been three network designs: the
telegraph network, the telephone network, and the Internet network. Each had
its particular end-user apparatus: the telegraph, the telephone, and the
computer. As we have changed from each of these paradigms to the next, we have
seen massive business transformations by the major players. Some made the
transformation; they survived and prospered; some did not and died. This
report is about how to make those transformations.
There are now competitive networks to the business and the residence, and
there are hundreds, maybe thousands, of companies devoted to the development
of station apparatus to meet customers' needs as they see them. (Most of this
station apparatus is not even called that, but is rather called computers,
DVRs, Wii, routers, over-the-top video, etc.) Network evolution, now, is
driven by the competitive desire of the multiple network providers to have
networks that are capable of interfacing with this station apparatus. For
telcos and all companies involved in the telecommunications business, this
drastically changed environment requires that they change their businesses if
they are to survive and prosper. We will devote a major section of this report
to discussing the current face of the telecommunication market, because that
understanding is essential to beginning a transformation project.
This series of reports is being prepared by Clifford Holliday, a writer and
analyst for IGI. His many previous projects have included the massive
Lightwave Series of Reports, the recent ROADM Series of Reports, and the AAA
Series of Reports. Mr. Holliday spent many years as the VP in charge of
technology planning in the Business Development department of GTE. He has been
involved in or led at least seven different major “transformation”
projects, including “PIP” - Performance Improvement Projects -
Winning Connection I and II, WINS, and Technology Reorganization, as well as
projects in the energy sector.
